    Looks nice. It's a little too cold though, you could work up a few simple icons to add a bit of contrast (see http://www.ourtype.be/), and try reversing some pages - i.e. red background with white/black type (you hinted at this with your intro). Your smooth actionscript literally makes the site, but does it rely on it too heavily? - this would not work as a html conversion. Technically the 'download article' links didn't work (OS X 10.3.8 Safari 1.2.4). Aesthetically, I find the arrows behind 'out-of-the-box' with their rough edges to conflict with the extremely clean cut typeface.
