Articulation of Time using Movie Clips

Project #1

Create an experimental flash projectwhich uses spatially static, but temporally active elements as an intregal part of its design. This means that while text and images are to stay in fixed location on the page (all right - small movements are ok) they should change over time in some manner. The changes should be autonomous. Use the power of Symbols / Instances in Flash to your advantage - for example, create several seperate elements (movie clips) then place many many instances of them on the page to create complexity.

- In this project, attempt to push the boundaries of what could be described as the "common practice" space of normal Web design and practice. For example: using large numbers of constantly changing images, or possibly only one image changing very slowly.

- Also consider how you might treat text in the fashion described above (many movie clips on stage - each with changing text, for instance).
