Webtrends - Analytics 10

http://analytics.webtrends.com/

I love data. I live and breath it. Analytics 10 is highly creative data driven piece of software. Data driven in technique, in design and in understanding. Data is navigation and telling the story is the experience.

Freightliner - Visit Cascadia

http://visitcascadia.com/ (maybe offline)

Freightliners are known for their reliability and efficiency. Their new Cascadia, however, stood out for both its styling and innovation.

With the team at Pop Art and I we created a trucker's heaven. We imagined that Cascadia was a town design by truckers. VisitCascadia.com was a site where visitors could discover the splendor of Cascadia, plan their visit, send friends a postcard, and get a local to ask a boss for a Cascadia truck. I want to live there.

Music Impacts

http://musicimpacts.com/

Music Impacts is a music discovery platform based on personal experiences, not popularity, awards or critiques. Part documentary, part social network, part publication, and part movement, the goal is to celebrate the artists, albums, songs and events that have had a big impact on our lives — even if they never had a big impact on the popular charts.

Leatherman - Argentum

http://www.leatherman.com/argentum/

Create a microsite for the series of tools. Develop a custom, highly stylized treatment to showcase the spirit/quality/voice through the new series. Develop a brand platform, model monikers and integrate a targeted blog-seeding effort.

More knives were sold in the first few weeks than Leatherman expected to sell in a year. The sie gained mentions in several prominent blog articles and earned media placement in a Newsweek Magazine and Uncrate.

SelecTrucks - 24 sites in 30 weeks

http://www.popart.com/selectrucks/

The SelecTrucks Dealer Project, designing and producing 24 unique dealer web sites in 30 weeks, incorporates extensive innovation in Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and HTML design. Using these technologies, we were able to create graphically-rich, regionally-inspired work that shared common content. With each new site, the team reached for new inspiration while keeping the timeline and budget lean.

Just for Kicks

An ongoing playground of experimentation.

http://parrfolio.com/

This is my playground. Creating user experiences is my passion, coding is my job and being a father and husband is my life. I eat burgers to survive and down big gulps of CSS for fun. I love this stuff.

Ultimate Satire

http://ie6death.com/

The real death of IE6. Microsoft will end IE 6 support April 8, 2014. I built this satire site to create awareness of depreciated browsers like IE 6 and others out in the market. Free your browser!

Childhood Fun

http://stumptown40.com/

It starts with a block of wood, four wheels and four axles, and ends in a 50-car, gravity- and alcohol-fueled double-elimination race. The Stumptown 40 benefit event was created to relive my younger days as a pinewood derby enthusiast and have fun with friends and family.

A new world.

I'm Ryan Parr

I'm very excited for the web industry today. It is a treasure trove of information waiting to be consumed by mobile, social and everywhere. I'm mostly interested in web technologies combined by a heightened user experience, to solve problems and drive innovation for a better overall experience on any device, platform or brand.
