TI - Hobo Lobo of Hamelin
AU - Stevan Živadinović
AB - "<em>Hobo Lobo of Hamelin</em> is a digital pop-up book about a city, its scruples, some rats, a wolf, his woodwind and the stuff that goes down. It's flat yet 3D, still yet animated, linear yet temporally scrubbable. It was built from scratch for the web (in HTML CSS JavaScript PHP MySQL, before instant jQuery parallax plugins existed) as an exercise in medium synthesis. The works of Jacques Tati are in no small part its guiding ethos. As fun and approachable as his stories are, Tati's films have to be seen on their own terms, and they skewer modernity itself. And so, inspired by Tati's daring, <em>Hobo Lobo</em> weaves a satirical fable that breaks with web comic conventions, borrows from video games and animation, and does its own thing." -- from <em>Electronic Literature Collection, Volume 3</em>
