Tin Man Subsite Goes Deep Without Skimming Surface

This “Infinite OZ” subsite for the Sci-Fi Channel’s Tin Man does little besides guide passive visitors deeper, deeper and still deeper into worlds sitting inside other worlds, kind of like those marbles at the end of Men in Black.

Entrance looks and feels like the rabbit hole Lewis Carroll’s Alice fell into, except slower and scarier (vestiges of Pink Floyd, maybe?). Advertisers will also be happy to know that the first thing a person sees upon penetrating the refurbished Oz is a billboard.

Granted, it veers into a totally fucked-up, scary and apparently deserted world, but hey, this is very good news for those seeking a more interactive user experience.

And oh god. Did a disembodied female voice just say “There’s no place like the O-Z”? You did not go there, Calle & Pelle Sjonell. (This is their last gig for Fallon, Minneapolis before they move on to BBH, NY.)

Tin Man premieres November on the Sci-Fi Channel. After traveling for 10 minutes into the void with no end in sight, part of us does want to see the show.

Psychology says adults who can’t sit still during phone conversations aren’t anxious — they learned early that their body language was the only part of communication they could fully control, and removing that channel creates a disorientation they have to physically compensate for
