Some websites I've made:
- The Living Creature
Launched
in 1999. An announcment for an exhibition I co-curated.
- Arts Dialogue: www.bahai-library.org/bafa
Launched
in 1999, most of the site is in English, where artists are categorized
under surname, by discipline and by country. Currently about 700
artist pages are on this site. Simple design with fairly neutral
colours so art works look their best. Made for slow connections and designed for easy updating.
- Asociación Bahá'í para las Artes:
www.bahai-library.org/bafa/esp_casa.htm
Launched
in 2003. This is the Spanish part of the Arts Dialogue website.
- Kath Tait: www.kathtait.com
Launched
in 2004, made for a London-based singer/songwriter. The music
page has pop up windows for printable lyrics pages and some sound
clips embedded in flash.
- Elika Mahony: www.melodies-nightingale.com
Launched
in 2004, made for a Chinese-based singer/musiican. The music page
has pop up windows for printable lyrics pages and some sound clips
embedded in flash.
- Heilige Huisjes: www.schooltv.nl/heilige_huisjes
A Dutch
language website about religion for 10 year olds for TeleacNOT
(2003). Made in flash (and for medium to fast connections). I
did the design and worked on the concept with two others. A programmer
did most of the scripting. On entering the site, you are instructed
to click on a bubble, and in doing so are taught to click on the
illustrations. Then any horizontal mouse movement makes a horizontal
line of children holding hands move across the screen. Between
each child there is an object, (a book, a snail, roadsign arrows,
a cloud, a flag, clasped hands and a speech bubble). Each is coated
in symbols from various religions and each leads to a theme, such
as "books" or "stories", which in turn lead to a page with some
text and illustrations about that book or story. The site is playful
and each level has a game, most made by myself.
- Alan Muggeridge: kiwifolk.org.nz/artists/alanm
Made for a New Zealand singer/musician who
died in 2000. Styled to suit his personality with lots of photos
(with enlargement options) as a memorial to a friend.
- The Bahais of Leiden: www.sonjvank.com/bahais
Still not finished, but the idea is a bilingual English-Dutch website where visitors get an idea of the Bahai Faith through perspectives of a community of individuals. Visitors can click on individual faces or follow the themes: "What is a Bahá´í", "Who is Bahá'ulláh", "Our community", "References" and "Activities". Elements link in various ways so the site can be navigated in diverse ways.
- A smattering of games: www.schooltv.nl/hbb
Play some games I've made. Click on the green archive cabinet and then on a theme button and then on the word "spel" (means game in Dutch). I've made many more games. A starting point is about 500 Euros for a matching pairs game. If you have an idea or theme, just ask for a quote.
- Then there's the website about my own art
There are many entrances. Below are three.
