Seeking the Sun
I partnered with Seeking the Sun, a local indie band, to design and build their digital home—SeekingTheSun.org—a site that reflects their evolving sound, visual identity, and experimental spirit. The project became more than a standard band website: it grew into an immersive experience blending music, storytelling, and interactive design.
In addition to a full-featured site showcasing music, videos, tour updates, and merch, I collaborated with the band to concept and build "Lost Realm", a browser-based game that expands on the band's mythology. In Lost Realm, players take on the role of a warlock navigating surreal environments inspired by the band’s lyrics and artwork. The game became a core part of the fan experience—bridging music, narrative, and interaction.
Key contributions:
- Designed and developed a custom website that reflects the band’s aesthetic through layered visuals, animated elements, and interactive features.
- Built Lost Realm, a lightweight exploratory game, reinforcing the band’s fantasy-inspired identity.
- Integrated streaming platforms, media embeds, and a merch shop with a mobile-first, performance-optimized design.
- Developed a scalable CMS for independent content updates by the band.
- Crafted an online experience that feels more like a digital zine or storyworld than a conventional music site.
This project brought together UX design, web development, and creative direction—turning a band’s online presence into an imaginative, playable world.
