Antoinette J. Citizen created art that just about anyone that grew up during the Nintendo Era can appreciate: A working Level 1-1 Super Mario Bros. room complete with interactive question mark boxes and bricks that featured actual Mario sound effects.
Sadly, just being in the room did not give you an Italian brother, allow you to spit fireballs, or kill turtles by jumping on them (though I guess that last one is always possible) but it probably would make you feel pretty super.

Crappy Cat is a fantastically interactive and animated sidescroller from VanBeater, better known as Trevor Van Meter. (Trevor also made Fly Guy.)
More experience than game, Crappy Cat puts you in control of a heavy drinking cat with an eye patch as you make your way through the interactive theater.
I won’t spoil any of the surprise, since you definitely need to check it out for yourself, so click through and see what the Crappy Cat is all about!

Dipity’s Internet Memes is “an interactive view of the all the memes that swept across the Internet and burrowed in our zeitgeist”.
The list is also zoomable, so that you can dig down into the more obscure references, and it’s built from Wikipedia and Memelabs, so you know that it’s (at least somewhat) reliable.
Plus, anyone can add to it and maintain the list, so you know that the nerds fighting over the exact date that the cheezburger cat became famous are going to have this thing accurate to the second.
Just remember: “All your base are belong to us”.

Vimeo Toys are “interactive visualizations of what’s happening right now” on Vimeo.
Though Vimeo encourages anyone to make a toy and submit it for approval, they’ve seeded the site with the first two: VimeoLand and Pulse.
Of the two, VimeoLand is definitely my favorite, as I really haven’t seen anything else like it before. VimeoLand is an interactive landscape with people walking around and a plane flying overhead, and each person represents an action by one of the Vimeo users. Clicking on a person brings up a like, a comment, an upload or a signup by a Vimeo user, and clicking on the plane drops a random video from the plane’s cargo.
While it’s not particularly useful, it definitely shows off the potential of Vimeo Toys, and makes me eager to see what’s coming out next.
