3islands.org is up and running providing the public access to the international rural artistic collaboration that has produced some of the most interesting and mind bending art I’ve seen in a long time. The front end of the site is designed to reflect the randomness and individual nature of the works the project encompasses. The main body of content comprises of blogs that are set up for each individual artists involved in the project. This gives the artists control of their own realm uploading media remotely from which ever island they are on. The Hoy project has finished and despite some technical gremlins with dial up connections, the content which has been posted is fantastically imaganitive and unique. North Uist is due to go ahead in August so fingers crossed that all technical issues will be resolved.
www.tradeafro.com is now up and running. Providing fine hand crafted djembes fresh from Senegal. The company is rapidly expanding and has become involved in building a music school. They are also working on providing a workshop for the craftsmen who produce the drums. It’s great to see a company embrassing the root of their product and nurturing a sense of fairness and harmony within it’s ethos. Plans are afoot to expand the range of instruments available, and the site has been handed over to an African web designer for further development. So it will be intresting to see how this organic aproach will affect the already wacky design I’ve created.
