Week 5 in class notes

Had a bit of a look at http://playdamage.org ; to be quiet honest it's not really my type of site. Although the images are quiet interesting, there is no apparent structure and despite the images being in rather low resolution, the pages still take a fair while to load. Not sure whether thats because of these computers or the site but either way, it's just a little disorganised and without a focus your really don't know what you should be looking at.

webartlinks.blogspot.com has past students' work and could provide some ideas on what I could could do for my flow chart next week. Adobe has a guide for  planning. He also reckons that a mock up could be good, so a little bit of photoshop slicing etc..

smartprojectspace.net has a fairly interesting index page with the idea of a paper paged book but again, it doesn't have a consistent interface. Something like aclip.net is much better; I really like the idea of structure, it looks so much cleaner, the guy has all his video clips and what not embedded into the site but they don't load until you want them to. The user has control over what content the are looking at,. great if you want to keep on updating your site and have your target audience come back.

Something like bauda.com is extra cool. Now thats usability in art... Something that appeals a lot more to me.

In terms of space; virtual or real? How do we depict one or the other, what are the connections?
