This was from the start a school project here at Hyper Island. But since we are not allowed to develop a complete website me and Henrik Porseland decided to do this as a freelance work.
Stena Line is one of the world’s largest ferry operators, with ferry services serving Scotland, Sweden, Northern Ireland, Denmark, Norway, England, Wales Ireland, Germany, Netherlands and Poland. This website is made for StenaLine to promote the new boat between Karlskrona, Sweden and Gdynia, Poland.

It’s mainly a flash website, but to celebrate this new boat with StenaLine we built a confetti machine. The user can go to the website and blow in her or his microphone and confetti will be spred out at the terminal in Karlskrona. You can also see a live stream of  the celebration. To be able to celebrate we use facebook connect, but it’s also possible to use your email.

How does this work? When the user blows into the microphone a signal sents to the computer at the terminal. When it receives a signal it triggers a Phidget motor which releases the confetti from a tank. Here is some more screenshots from the site. Hope you like it.

Roskilde Festival is one of the worlds biggest music festivals and it’s based in Roskilde, Denmark. Basically it’s a site where people can talk about social innovations. How to improve the cleaning of the festival or maybe how to save as much power as possible? This is just examples of topics that can show up at Roskilde Social Lab. At the festival there is workshops where people can meet and talk about fun but still important things. Not only for Roskilde Festival but for the World.

My role in this project was to develop the website and a mobile version of it. I’m behind both the front-end and the back-end. There is a whole CMS built from scratch for the admins to update cases and challenges on the site. There is also connections to facebook such as comments and twitter feeds. This was a very quick job since we needed the site before the festival started. Around two weeks evening job.

Photos from the Roskilde Social Lab will be added after the festival.
