Jazzfest Archives
Web Design
Completed: June 2003
Jazzfest Archives is an online art exhibit dedicated to sharing the
New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival experience through the photography
of Dino Perrucci. The scale of Dino's photography (during the 2003 Jazz
Festival, he photographed 97 different live music performances) reflects
the scale of the festival itself.
LukeW solution:
A dynamic database-driven structure allows visitors to search and browse
the archives (over 1,300 photos) in many ways. A direct search by venue,
date, or artists can be followed up by casual browsing (almost all the
information is cross-linked) or a "surprise" (random selection).
As part of the development, Applescript was used to automatically generate
the hundreds of thumbnails and magnified images that make up the site.
The visual design of the Web site and logo is directly influenced by
the swampy "cajun" atmosphere of New Orleans.
