Market research in rural communities highlighted some business owners who already had sites built with a CMS system but were daunted by the prospect of making changes to their own website due to the complexity of the CMS graphic interface.

As a consequence, Abstractal decided to build their own CMS system which is devoid of all the unnecessary 'bells and whistles'. Pterodactyl is the result of that process. The primary concept of Pterodactyl is to give the user the ability to modify most of the text and images of their website via very simple graphic interfaces.

Ponder

A collection of 32 drown-tempo loops of field recordings and music, the Android app Ponder is designed for those moments when you you just can’t decide what to listen to.

An auto-play feature, Autoponder, allows Ponder to forge a new variation with every play, meandering between minimal ambient to more brooding constructs.
