14 Reasons
« on: November 23, 2009, 11:46:09 AM »
a couple years ago in the mag we ran an article called 14 Reasons- a photo article with words about 14 songs that came from famed punk label SST in the '80s. we just posted the old article along with mp3s of the songs discussed so you can see the photos, read the article and listen to the tracks all at once. click on the page to zoom in on the text...
http://www.slapmagazine.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1674&Itemid=27

featuring photos of AVE, appleyard, gilbert crockett, dan pensyl, don nguyen, chet childress, brent atchley, elissa steamer, danny way and more, plus music from dinosaur jr, black flag, the bad brains, sonic youth, the minutemen, firehose, the descendents, husker du, the meat puppets, and the tar babies.

First of all, all great photos. 

Second of all, I really like this application of translating what a magazine is to the digital format.  Article + photo + soundtrack 'just works'.

Now for feedback from a usability standpoint -- I love the way the entire page is in frame at once, and that the user controls the 'zoom'.  It does feel more like how one reads the text on a page with a photo spread.  However, right now the zoom window is a static zoom field.  I think I would prefer if the zoom acted like a death lens, in which the middle target text was much larger, but you still could see the text before and that which follows (though smaller).  This, of course, would not be ideal for the photographs.  Maybe linear zoom on click, logarithmic zoom on ctrl+click would provide the best of both worlds?
