New iPhone App: Childrens’ Book “Pauline Investigates On The Farm”

admin — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 17:57:12 +0000

Multi-language children’s book Pauline Investigates On The Farm (originally in French) debuts on the iPhone, as a free English download. Currently the original French is a $0.99 upgrade, with other languages to follow.

Highlights include a follow-along audio-to-text interface, as well as hidden animal sounds.

It’s fun for all ages! (Assuming those ages are under, say, 7…Or you happen to be the parent of one of those ages.)

From the Archive: Sirius Radio Web Layout

Old but notable: Layout for Sirius Radio’s Web home.

This was produced in partnership with Organic and was a lot of fun to work on. This layout eventually evolved into the Sirius web site, and it seemed fun enough to resurrect for a moment. (Anything featuring an Elvis is always fun enough.)

While we’ve been out of touch

As we gather new updates (which we’ll make as soon as we have a free moment!), we’d like to strongly encourage New Yorkers to make the trek to Queens to check out Flux Factory’s new space. While viewing the current exhibit in the brand-new (amazing!) living-and-gallery-space won’t come close to the experience of the initial opening gala, you’re sure to find something exciting.

Plus, every Friday for a while there are new events and unveilings (like films starring Genesis P-Orridge for instance). Do yourself a favor and try to make one.

And don’t miss John Roach’s doorbell: there are two components not including the button itself, so try to find the second, less obvious, one.

We recently finished up a big video demo for the Houston Chronicle, but the content is supa-secret so unfortunately we can’t post it. After Effects, sound design, custom voice over, lots of fun stuff!
