Ingenious site produced by Soda Creative Ltd, which enables users to create animated models online, using its Sodaconstructor construction kit. The resultant models can be viewed in the Sodazoo section, a collection of extraordinary stick animations which can be moved around by your mouse, and sent spinning around by switching off the gravity option.
Inactive as of March 2013.

Beautifully imagined site from a web design company, using Flash animation and particularly effective use of sound to demonstrate how a web site can look and operate. Users have to select from a row of balls, dragging them into a spinning receptor, to learn more about the companys projects and portfolio.

Part of the Internet Archive, which also covers archived moving images (The Internet Moving Images Archive), audio and software, the Wayback Machine holds cached versions of thousands of websites and billions of pages, allowing users to look at sites that are no longer available or at earlier versions of ones that are still around. An invaluable resource that, due to the gigantic nature of the holdings, is slightly hampered by the fact that no list of the holdings can be easily provided. This means inevitably that correct recall of the URL in question is necessary, or failing that, searching for it on the web first.

LUX focuses on visual arts-based moving image work, a definition which includes experimental film, video art, installation art, performance art, personal documentary, essay films and animation. The organisation’s main activities are distribution, exhibition, publishing, commissioning, research, and professional development support, and the newly designed website neatly reflects all these activities. Of particular note is the easily searchable collection of 4500 films and videos by approximately 1500 artists, which evolved from the holdings of the now-defunct London Filmmakers Co-operative, London Video Arts and The Lux Centre. These works are available for hire or sale (via the online shop), some may be viewed online in their entirety (Video section) and some are included in online themed exhibitions (listed in the ‘What’s On’ section which also includes detailed information on LUX projects and events, and a calendar listing of upcoming events across London involving artists’ moving image). The site also features a blog and downloadable podcasts and vodcasts of interviews with artists, documentation of LUX events and specially commissioned content.
