The Whale Hunt Project

I was reading the newspaper these morning and found these very interesting web project.We all know that internet and New Media are changing a lot the way we tell and read storys...the web designer and artist Jonathan Harris is one of the driving forces pushing these foward. After studyng at FABRICA Jonathan started working in personal web based projects always trying to create new ways of using the web to tell storys. He just created the The Whale Hunt Project. Jonathan and photographer Andrew Moore traveled to Barrow, Alaska to register the traditional whale hunting. Andrew had loads of work to do...the idea was to take a picture every 5 minutes during the hole trip...even when they where sleeping an automatic camera would flash every 5 minutes...after that everything was put together in a timeline and in a image mosaic. Check it out!!

I will soon put up some more work and info from my trip to Bahia...
