In association with Google Chrome, Chris Milk just released an interactive experience called The Wilderness Downtown. The video, which showcases Arcade Fire’s We Used to Wait, explores new functionality within HTML5 and shows how Google Chrome is pushing the limits. It’s a great example of interactivity that connects meaningful media and personalized content.

Hillman Curtis, graphic designer turned digital filmmaker, recently finished a new documentary film with Byrne, called Ride, Rise, Roar. Can’t wait to see what they’ve cooked up.
