Finalist: Hamish Fulton: Walking Artist

URL: www.hamish-fulton.com

Creator: Andy Foulds — Freelance Flash designer/developer.

Artist’s Statement: Hamish Fulton is an established British artist. The brief for the site was to feature the artist’s work and encourage the viewer to linger and explore. This was accomplished by the use of a semi-randomised layout and layer-blending that produce ever-changing juxtapositions of the work as a background whilst the images are directly accessable via a grid of buttons.

At the artist’s request the site has been kept deliberately minimal with detailed information contained in the earlier version 01 site, accessible via the link at the foot of the page.

In this podcast, Lynda interviews Adobe’s Scott Fegette, who will present “Producing Video for Flash” at Flashforward2006 Austin. Scott and Lynda discuss the community-friendly philosophy embodied by Adobe Labs; Scott’s background in music, documentary filmmaking, and web design, and how that experience will inform his session.
