Hace una temporada que sigo Chrome Experiments con cierto entusiasmo. Si seguís mis elementos compartidos de Google Reader es posible que también lo conozcáis. La propuesta del sitio es bastante sencilla:

[…] we created this site to showcase cool experiments for both JavaScript and web browsers. These experiments were created by designers and programmers from around the world using the latest open standards, including HTML5, Canvas, SVG, and more.

Si todavía no conocéis esta colección de proyectos os recomiendo echarle un ojo, hay algunos que son realmente espectaculares. Ayer, en el blog de Google Chrome, destacaban uno de estos experimentos, The Wilderness Downtown:

Choreographed windows, interactive flocking, custom rendered maps, real-time compositing, procedural drawing, 3D canvas rendering… this Chrome Experiment has them all. “The Wilderness Downtown” is an interactive interpretation of Arcade Fire’s song “We Used To Wait” and was built entirely with the latest open web technologies, including HTML5 video, audio, and canvas.

El resultado es, como poco, muy curioso. Es una lástima que los caminos de diseño y desarrollo que abren las nuevas funcionalidades de los navegadores se vean perjudicados por el uso de otros navegadores totalmente desfasados.

But what they don’t know is that Batman has another card up his sleeve: The Ace of Spades! Now teamed up with his new partners, Mikkey Dee, Phli Campbell and the unstoppable force known only as Lemmy, Batman and Motörhead must solve the case of the man who was… Killed By Death!

Como siempre, se puede pinchar en la imagen para verla más grande. O visitar el sitio de donde está sacada, que merece la pena.
