I mean okay wMw a few others have been raving on and on about Lexansculpt which is not bad but failed to impress me as much..because for me the ultimate IDM Flash site unrelated to any musical artist has been Praystation..check it out for yourself and especially try the machine series's
Praystation.com

The guy behind PRAYSTATION, Josh Davis, is really great guy...I used to be a member of Dreamless, an undeground design board he used to run & had some great times there...(so underground that you had to read the HTML source in order to get in the first time...which kept out a lot of trolls etc..)...
He's got a CDROM out (which I think you can still get from his site...)...pretty cool if you are into design / flash etc...
oh yeah, Check out his Tatoos if youget a chance...

i knew this one guy who had a "praystation boxset" it looked like a little playstation 2, and had a bunch of cd-roms in it...the guy was homeless and was a jesus freak, and was def...
i was dating him, and a def girl whom i had also met at the same rave i had met him; i brought him to my house to hang out after a party...and the fucker desecrated all of my fucking "evil (hardly)" memoribila when i left for a quick snack/drink at the local gas station...ever since then i just thought that the pray station was crap...and i read the little bio that was included...crap...
the design of this site ur mentioning might be coo' but after an experiance like that...PSSSSSSH!

I'll see if I can dig up a pic for ya, nano...from what I recall he's got his entire back and arms done with a huge Japanese Koi Carp design and some inca/aztec stuff on his arms as well....
What was that homeless guys name, nano?...we we're a pretty tight cru at Dreamless and I might well know him...
flea...yeah, it's one guy but a lot of those pieces on PS are done as collaborations with other people...but Josh is a total workaholic and the amount of stuff he does is pretty jaw-dropping...He used to work at Kioken in NYC but nowadays he's freelance and is moving more towards the proper Art world...
oh yeah...Josh Davis/Praystaion is not Josh Davis/DJ Shadow...just a conincidence...

http://www.shift.com/content/9.1/85/1.html is a great, in-depth interview with JD if you wanna know more about him & his work...
Flash Design & IDM do seem to go real well together..it always seemed to be the music of choice for most of the designers I've known; AE get namechecked all the time as great music to work to...

bestflashsites.de
is the only address you need to memorize to get access to about 380 of the coolest Flashsites at your finger tips..a lot of them are commercial..but a lot are full of fun and interactivity....
and Jand have you seen this guys work?
v2d.two.ru not much of a scripter but has some really cool art and excellent glitchy sounds to accompany his work...
and cmart.design.ru
man this site is breathtakingly beautiful..more gothic than IDM but pretty amazing nonethless....

Hadn't seen those....very nice...thanks...
The new Flash MX looks very cool...I've got it but haven't had a chance to play yet....
The sound stuff is massively upgraded, so expect some smooth stuff in that area and also, you can now access the LineIn, so should be able to get stuff that reacts to mic input...
Also support for WebCams....

smooth...perhaps we could get together on something...
I'm a hardcore coder so we should be able to come up with somespecial...I've been wanting to do some sort of Geneative Music thing and these new sound features make that possible...

hmm..interesting i am more of a designer..illustrative sound etc..there is this idea I am working on in my head..maybe a collaboration wont be a bad idea...I might email you the last thing I did..very primitive compared to what's out there..and all the links wont work because it's a front for my portfolio..but you might get a pic of my Flash/Design (in)ability...heh..
if interested..say yep here and I will fire up the email..:)

I guess my computer can't handle it, I clicked on the "machines" I guess that's what you're supposed to do, there were very brief animations of clouds of minimal color that went at about 1 frame/ second which is slow.
