Didn't like the noises to be honest - I was listening to some jazz.
Loved everything else. Your dordles could be presented in netscape navigator on an old beige crt covered in piss, and I'd love them. Great stuff.

Looks nice, I pretty sure that you can pull the animation off without Flash.

love it + great work. your gallery looks sweet on a retina display.
though loose the flash. plugins to view a website is dated.

QBN: if you want tight deadlines (immediate), post your site here, redesigned...

Honestly, I find it a bit odd.
I went to your site and I want content — damn it, I want the content. I scrolled down to some nice art/photography, but there wasn't a next stop (i.e., not linked). Well I happened to notice the very small navigation on top of the page so I moved my cursor appropriately. The 'Art' landing page is fairly straight forward and easy to navigate. Great! However, your art/work detail pages require users to jump back to the 'Art' landing page to find more work. Blah.
Great work but a few website tweaks are in order.

If you see your site as being an expression of your personality then it probably does the job, although like others have stated above, there are ways in which the site could be created without flash and have some navigational tweaks in order to improve the user experience.
I too was blown away by the quality of your photography. Impressive!

I was annoyed by your lack of humility.

the work is so good but the site doesn't do it justice,
there are too many layouts;
dordles uses grid, photo uses horizontal,
the other work sections are single page and do not give the possibility to skip between work without going back to the original menu,
I am confused :)
good work none the less

Flash portfolio in 2013 is pretty brave

Dunno if you've changed it since first posting here (i'm guessing by your sub headline on the home shout), but I really like the 'About' copy.
I'm confused as to what your involvement was in your 'films' section, given you appear to be an illustrator/photograspher? Might be worth thinking about how you channel your various skillsets on the one site.
The amoubnt of time the intro page takes to deliver readable content is irritating.
Doing it in Flash was (imho) a terrible idea.
I didn't click the unMute button. Unless someone's site is about sound design or music or something, I generally wouldn't be interested in it (especially as I'll likely have my own music on at the time anyway).

I can't help but notice that the good work on here is talked about using "we" where the smaller pieces are described using "I". In other places you use the type of copy that would be used on an agency portfolio to sensationalize the work (which they can get away with because they actually are a "we"). I'm not sure if you are deliberately hiding the scope of your roles on some of these pieces but it would be good to be more forthcoming on that. If I were hiring, seeing the way you do that on some of the bigger projects combined with the way you talk about yourself would make me pass. I'm super sensitive about that kind of stuff though. I'm sure others might pay it no mind.
- That or I'd grill he shit out of you in the interview about what your role was on each thing,cannonball1978
- Not hiding the role, I think any advertising recruitor would know that as an AD...nikdaum
- my role was to come up with the idea and then supervise the production.nikdaum
