The Wilderness Downtown August 30, 2010
This is a very interesting multimedia proof of concept done with HTML 5.
From the “video,” I noticed at least the use of HTML 5 video, canvas and geo-location features. There may also be some persistence of data. This definitely illustrates some new ways that websites will be engaging visitors in the future, allowing a more personalized multimedia experience.
I was surprised at the smooth integration of elements between technologies and how great the drawn images actually looked.
Google is a big proponent of HTML5, especially for video and rich graphics in the browser. To show off what HTML5 can do, Google Chrome teamed up with the Arcade Fire and director Chris Milk to create a custom interactive video for their song, We Used To Wait. The experience is called The Wilderness Downtown and is best viewed in Chrome
I definitely encourage people to fire up Chrome and take a look.
