1. endings eventually end

   A collection of 25 countdown clocks and the cataclysmic prophecies associated with each end times scenario. Published under the imprimatur of Singularity Watch! and the Ecumenical Eschatology Working Group, these prophecies depict the many ways that life as we know it will come to an end.  Whether due to catastrophic stage magic to orgiastic overeating, clouds of interstellar fog to giant fish, Nelson and Heckman's work suggest that our days are numbered.

2. Pyxis Byzantium

   Pyxis Byzantium is a hypermedia narrative investigation into the fall of Byzantium in 1453.  Surrounded by enemy forces for decades, the final invasion of the city was widely anticipated by some of the populace, denied by others, and a focus of wonder and prayer.  This piece imagines several different residents of the city, their fears and hopes, and their beliefs about the sources of destiny.  The navigation includes maps of the city, sacred holidays, and the chronology of the destruction.  Because of its extensive use of Flash, it is not currently playable in original form.
