A HTML 5 music video by Arcade Fire called the Wilderness Downtown. This is by far the most impressive use of HTML5 I have seen to date, albeit very CPU intensive, the creativity and art direction make it totally worthwhile. View in Chrome or Firefox.

I’m on fire today, 3rd post and counting… Plinks is a weekly newsletter that Pete van Lanschot and myself send out to a group of esteemed readers on Facebook every Friday lunchtime. It’s a melting pot of interesting links from around the web ranging from the digital media industry, funnies and more. Join the group now and keep your finger on the pulse.
For those of you living who do not already know, HTML5 is upon us and updates have been made to cherbz.co.uk so that all you iPad and iPhone users can enjoy the links I post. Vimeo have recently dumped their old flash player, resulting in a lot of the embedded videos on the site not displaying. Anyway, all is good now, I trust you will all agree??
On May 10th 2010, I officially became a User Experience Architect at Grand Union. Being a Flash Designer/Developer, the arrival of the iPad and Apple’s restriction on App Development sparking so much controversy on the Web, have forced me to rethink my career. So, I thought what better time than now to jump ship and learn an entirely new skill-set. Meet Charbel Akhras, User Experience Architect.

Some screenshots from some homepage takeovers and video walls I worked on for Channel Five’s new TV show Flash Forward. Unfortunately these formats had a very short lifespan, however the Flash Forward online banner ads are up and available for viewing.

I find this video so peaceful and beautiful, I think I can watch it everyday for the rest of my life!
The main tank called the “Kuroshio Sea” holds 7,500-cubic meters (1,981,290 gallons) of water and features the world’s second largest acrylic glass panel, measuring 8.2m by 22.5m with a thickness of 60cm. Whale sharks and manta rays are kept amongst many other fish species in the main tank.
This was shot using a Canon 5DMKII with a 28-135mm lens.
Just got back from a much-needed 3 week holiday in the motherland, Greece.
Had an incredible time, and visited 8 islands in the space of 7 days on a friend’s boat.
Check out some photos of my adventures in the Greek islands on my Flickr page.



I hate to show off but its fun! If you feel something warm bubbling up inside you, its called “jealousy”.
Sorry.
