Website Art – Thomas
I’ve known about this website for a while and it is really simple but I think that’s the genius of it. It checks whether or not there is a current wildfire raging in California at any given time. It helps spread awareness of this big issue in California.

This is the official website for a British rock band Oasis. I found it very inspirational.
First because the layout of the page is great and consistent. Black background and white words, the same font throughout the whole web.
(Music Main Page)
Also the display of the album pictures and videos are aligned perfectly. Some of them are pictures and some of them are words.
(Album Display)
The navigation bar also follows the same style.

Secondly is the interaction of the website. It has clear instructions(all in blue color).
(Interaction)
And when you open a page there will always be some animation. Also, they way they play the video is not simply direct it to the YouTube page, but they play it on their own page and has name of the song and the information of the concert at the bottom.
(Video Play Page)
So I think this is a very sophisticated webpage and it inspired me a lot.
Response to Rachel Greene’s “Web Work: A History of Net Art” – Nan
Greene’s work links me back to McLuhan’s statement on “the medium is the message.” The emergence of a new generation of medium evokes a series of changes in communication or idea expressions. The emergence of the internet gives rise to web art, firstly as a new platform of illustrating the traditional art and then after evolution as a whole new school of art. Regarding web art, we need not only to recognize how the development of technology changes the way we communicate but also to appreciate how art thrives in this new medium. The web art combines our visual and auditory sensors as well as interactions together, and therefore it brings us to a new age which opens the door for novel ways of artistic expression and topic discussion. We could talk about more things in different ways, and make a much bigger impact on the surroundings.
