Wii Browsing

Tuesday, January 16th, 2007 by Carsten Schneider

Yesterday I finally managed to get my Wii online and immediately installed Opera (after downloading R-Type). Quite a few websites get now Wii-friendly to work on the low resolution, with big chunky buttons and larger type.

Wiiflow for example has a collection of Flashgames, easily accessible - best of all, it has Zookeeper!

Finetunes is a music player specifically designed for the Wii, with a cover-flow-like interface.

And from Winksite you can download a WordPress plug-in to get your blog Wii-ready.

A Berlin Wall scale model we got from Metrofarm, cast out of steel-reinforced concrete. The concrete used is so fine that even the cracks look the right scale:

Have a look at their amazing concrete furniture, too.

Getty Images: Ten Ways to Interact

Friday, May 19th, 2006 by Carsten Schneider

Getty Images have commissioned five design agencies to produce interactive pieces on “how photography works”. Less Rain have contributed two, about the subjects of colour and truth. We tried a very minimal approach with next to no interface elements, to let the images speak for themselves.

The projects have just been made available online at interact10ways.com
