We blend intuitive interaction, realtime physics simulations and storytelling to create an experience that will make you love physics.

Here it is! We are proud to show MSI Simple Machines!
Try the games, help Twitch and learn about Physics – and yes, you can also waste your day feeding Twitch with chocolate and sugar.

This is the very first project where our Swedish office – Helpful Strangers – has put its lovely hands on both the design and the development.
Four games, great characters, and lot of fun!

Twitch, one of the most adorables characters i’ve ever seen on a website stars this fantastic microsite done by Unit9 for the Museum of Science and Industry of Chicago to teach children physics in a fun and engaging way. But it’s hard not to enjoy even not being children anymore.

Spot the Bull and win Glastonbury tickets

A real bull. A real field. A real chance to win a pair of tickets to Glastonbury.
Guess (before 2pm) where Desmond the Bull will be at 3pm today and you could win tickets for you and a mate. Good luck getting a bullseye.

Animalish Photographs

Oh, a Zoo around me!

March 3rd, 2009 (7) Comments »

melancholic snail

Oh, a Zoo around me! is a set of photographs of animals that surround me.
Those creatures are everyday objects with strong expressions and personality.
The photo above is Melanchonic Snail, other people would say that it is tape instead of a snail – obviously they are all wrong. Can you imagine someone trying to tape something using a snail..  how silly!

Following you can find more images of animals from my collection. You can find these photos on Flickr as well, please feel free to leave a comment. Also I created a pool on Flickr, where everyone can add more creative animals!
