simian - V5

I remember this guy from back in the old days of imd. He was hudge at the time. He produced a series of flash/shockwave animations called SIMIAN. They were winning awards left right and centre, high quality stuff that to my knowledge has never been better’d. I was a big fan, even ordered stickers and stuff of his site (for free!!) Then he vanished.

He’s resurfaced in New York working for id society, the kind of company that only talks in corporate drivel like “4D Ideology”, but he has put his portfolio up at www.53degreesnorth.net. I’d encourage a good look through his work, and although most of the good stuff isn’t live (yet?) you can still see how his earlier work is still relevant today, even Bryce’s “Thornament”

this guy certaintly was the legend back in the day. looks like he’s still producing the “goods”

Hey. Thanks for the kind words. I am still trying to produce my own personal stuff, but needs must, and i am now working “for the man”. got to pay bills and look after the family now. Anyway, thanks again. Ross (simian)

awesome stuff…

Thanks for responding, its good to hear that you’re still producing the goods!!

I’m working for auntie at the minute and still can’t manage the time to get my own portfolio up (as interesting as that would be…), yet alone bring up a family!

If you ever get the chance finish simian 7 !!! There would be alot of interest… might be able to tell the man “to stick it”

Yeah man. You are definitely a legend and have always been an inspiration to me. Thanks for raising the bar for people like me!
