Arcade Fire - The Wilderness Downtown Chrome Experiment - A Cool Personalised Music Video

2010-09-03T18:52:00.000+01:00

The Wilderness Downtown by Arcade Fire is a lovely Chrome Experiment (so you will need to be using an up-to-date Chrome browser – probably – I can’t be bothered trying it using any of the others. You should be using it anyway. It is the best.)

The first thing you are asked to do is to enter the address of the house that you grew up in. It will use this address along with Streetview, some cool animations and videos and lots of windows, to create your own personalised music video.

RecordTripping - Abstract Mouse Wheel Fun and Games

2010-09-02T19:09:00.015+01:00

Record tripping is an extremely well designed and original game by the Bell Brothers who have a penchant for picture frames. It is also a very deserving winner of both a Webby Award and an FWA Site of the Day.

The idea of the game is to use your mouse wheel to manipulate a variety of devices including a safe, a clock and a windmill in order to affect displayed scene.

To make this cleaer, take a look at the following:

Here you spin the windmill clockwise or anti-clockwise to affect the air current so as to blast a falling seed with the object of landing it into a receptacle of earth, whence forth a lovely flower sprouts.

Also:

On this level you must spin the dial on the safe in the correct direction until it clicks into place. When you complete the relevant number of clicks, the safe pops open.

This is all accompanied to either the default Alice in Wonderland track or to another track that you can download, the sound being scratched by your mouse wheel jiggery.

I know it all sounds a little strange, but it is quite good fun for ten minutes or so.

Grotrian Piano Toy - Crazy experimental piano toy - give it a try

2010-03-02T19:44:00.003Z

Grotrian Pianos is a very groovy musical toy – and a little bit crazy at that. You start off by choosing your composition. There are 4 to try…Beethoven, Satie and Loh and their own mad piece (the game is made by an old skool piano making company). Once you have chosen then the fun begins.

You are given an abstract board of moving squares that allow you to manipulate the tune in lots of trippy ways. It is a little hard to describe with no musical vocabulary, but you basically move the squares around in different ways to distort the composition to your liking. You can also choose the tone, rhythm and tempo of your masterpiece.

Just like many of the toys featured on this site, it is difficult to explain….you need to experience it.

Hoogerbrugge - Crazed Neurotic Interactive Flash Animations

2009-07-14T15:27:00.007+01:00

This Hoogerbrugge fellow is one mad son of a gun. I wish I had his imagination. Over the years he has created some very weird interactive animations. His Modern Living series, which he created over a 3 year period includes features a crazy bloke ripping his face off to reveal a swarm of flies underneath and he stumbles about drunk, hiccuping and puking. His Nails series features another man and a load more strangeness. He headbutts himself, acts like a dog on a car bonnet and pulls himself into his legs and begins dancing.

Legs!

SamePhysics - A Kool tetris style game with shake funk

2009-06-03T20:14:00.003+01:00

I am just starting a new post whence I am attempting to write a game a week for the next year. You can find my very basic blog here. For my first week I have nicked a load of code from Emanuele Feronato's blog. E has been writing this blog for 3 years and has just got into the top 40,000 websites in the world. That might not seem like much, but if you consider there are 7,003,343,3223,223,222,113 websites in the world I reckon that is a pretty good achievement.

So to help get E a couple more hits, this is SamePhysics, a difficult tetris-ish style game in which you attempt to get rid of connecting blocks of the same colour. If you get into trouble then you use the Shake-o-meter (patent-thingied (c) - Liveo). Give it a try.

Stacker - Funky stack toy - stack those buggers high

This is a very original and unique little toy. You control a little wind cursor thangie-ma-jig and try to hold a piece of hail (is that the correct term) in the air until it is big enough to smash a building up. Again, my command of the english language has failed me. Just try it for yourself.

Now I can't tell you too much about this toy, except that it is gorgeous and quite a bit of fun. The problem is that it is all in spanish (I think). I am assuming that it has been created to promote the singer that sings along as you play. She is a very lovely singer at that.

The toy itself is like a mad flow of paint, scrolling on and on with lovely images bursting from your paint at regular intervals. It's another one that is too hard to describe. Give it a try....

Spirograph - Waste 10 minutes playing with this funky toy.

2009-04-08T15:31:00.003+01:00

Remember these toys of yore (are they still around?). This is much easier and more environmentally friendly. I know this buggers up my blog, but I reckon it's worth.

Blue Ball Machine 2 - It's Bigger and Crazier Than Ever!

2009-04-08T14:15:00.004+01:00

Back in the day I remember being pretty impressed by a site called the Blue Ball Machine. It was pretty impressive for it's day. Well it looks like those guys have updated it with an even more whacky machine.
This images doesn't do it much justice. You have to see the site for yourself, here. Leave it running until the music kicks in.

Speak to The God on the Internet - Wowwww!!!

2009-04-08T12:47:00.004+01:00

I don't know how I can express my joy. I have just spoken to God on the Internet. It was wild! It was really Him/Her. I just couldn't think of what to say. What do you ask God? Well, what? You may be lucky - He/She may speak to you to.....

The Fantastic Human Clock!!

2009-04-08T12:30:00.003+01:00

Some people have a bit too much time on their hands. This crazy fool has created a clock which has images for every minute of the day. You would think that it would be enough to have 1 image per minute, but they have loads....and you can choose between analogue and digital.

The mad "let them sing it for you" song toy!!!

2009-04-07T18:00:00.004+01:00

More song related fun. Now, this is a crazy idea! It doesn't look like much, but you need to give it a try. What you have to do is to enter a bunch of words that you want this toy to sing back to you. The magic machine then trundles off and builds your song from samples collected from other songs.

You can find it here.

Your own groovy online choir

Make My People Sing is a lovely little toy that presents you with a group of armless people and a little beatbox. You click on the different people to get them to sing and the beatbox gives out the funky beats. You can even record your pieces and play them back with the dukebox later on.

Warning - It does start to do your head in after a while. here

Have BIG Fun with the String Spin Toy

2009-04-07T16:24:00.002+01:00

This is a lovely little site to waste 5 minutes on. The basic idea is that you draw some strings while the String Spin Toy spins around. Once you have finished your design, you hit the start button and the little bugger creates an amazing ...... thing. It's a bit hard to exaplain. Just give it a try.

Zoomdoggle and his crazy Fun-o-meter

2009-04-07T14:29:00.002+01:00

In a wild attempt to monetize his site, Zoomdoggle, the King of Fun, has been touring around with his Fun-o-meter. The idea is that you pay your 50c and you get a toy and a fun thing to do, with a map if it is needed. You also get 25c back! Bargain. Check it out here.

When are you coming to the UK, mr Zoomdoggle?

They are a right randy lot in India and China. Think I'll be going there for my next holiday.

RJDJ - Mind mashing music

2009-04-05T10:44:00.001+01:00

RjDj has to be the coolest iPhone App in the Universe. It is pretty hard to describe, but I'll give it a go. This thing produces music by taking in input from your environment - that is, sounds and movement. I have just created the next number one - my going for a dump.

Does that make sense. Yes. Good. Check it out here.
