Arcade Fire and Chris Milk HTML5 Film [Teaser]
Watch it at www.thewildernessdowntown.com We're excited to launch a musical experience made specifically for the browser, called "The Wilderness Downtown." The project was created by writer Chris Milk with the band Arcade Fire and Google. "The Wilderness Downtown" is set to Arcade Fire's new song "We Used to Wait", and showcases many of the latest developments on the web. It features a mash-up of Google Maps and Google Street View with HTML5 canvas, HTML5 audio and video, an interactive drawing tool, and choreographed windows that dance around the screen. These modern web technologies have helped us craft an experience that is personalized and unique for each viewer, as you virtually run through the streets where you grew up.
