Project #1:
SUPERBAD

http://www.superbad.com/
When I first went to Superbad I was stunned. How does he do that? I saw
things at this site that I didn't think were possible without high-end
browser plug-ins and a fast connection. Superbad is super design, plus
super javascript and super HTML.
You will see interestingly animated images from popular culture, email
stories that slowly unravel. Or go nowhere. And of course browser
tricks. Less chaotic than the other "browser artists," Superbad exploits
the loopholes of your web browser but to benevolent ends. Superbad is
highly visual, fun and engaging. The art holds the viewer's attention,
earning points for technique and programming skills, and unlike many
Internet art projects, it does not engage politically or conceptually.
