Evolution of a design - Teks

I'm redoing the site for Teks.no, a center for electronic art. The style is pretty far from what I'd normally do and it's quite dificult to adapt to such a dark palette and so much content. I find it interesting to see how the design changes as the project goes forward. When I look at the current mockup and compare it to the first one I wonder what the hell I was thinking on the first draft.
