Hypercomics i-Pad App Launched
Posted: November 21, 2010
Peter Webb and the team at Redrawn have just confirmed that the free Hypercomics iPad app has now launched and available from iTunes! Here’s the link. And here’s the description:
“The Hypercomics app features the work of four renowned comics and visual artists, Adam Dant, Daniel Merlin Goodbrey, Dave McKean and Warren Pleece. Unlike conventional comics, Hypercomics gives you the opportunity to choose your route through the branching storylines created by the artists. Created to accompany the Hypercomics exhibition at the Pump House Gallery in London, the Hypercomics app acts as a digital scrapbook and introduction to the show. It offers the viewer a chance to see how the four artists liberated their work from the confines of the printed page and exploded them into the gallery space, relating multiple narratives to one another across walls and over the four floors of the gallery. Each artist presents a newly commissioned work conceived specific to the Pump House Gallery, using its setting, history or architecture as a springboard.”
This app has arrived a bit later than intended, but serves as a ongoing documentation of the show that I curated back in August-September, as well as being a fine example of Hypercomics itself. Peter has promised there’s a sample video of it coming shortly and I’ll let you know where to take a look.
