Welcome to Skylark!

  What do we do?

Skylark Associates is a specialist consultancy offering design and development expertise in interactive media. Our projects are delivered as desktop applications, on popular mobile devices such as the iPhone, as DVD-ROM titles, and on the web.

  Crex

Market-leading DVD-ROM titles for birdwatchers from BirdGuides are based on Crex - a software platform developed by Skylark. Crex provides a powerful framework for delivery of interactive content, and runs on both Windows and Mac OS X.


Media such as text, video, sounds and images can all be classified and indexed. This content can then be browsed and searched using powerful and yet easy-to-use tools within Crex. Learn more in Crex overview>>

· Turning a spirit as he nears the sky!
· His voice is heard, but body there is none,
· To fix the vague excursions of the eye.
