| What happened to your experimentation? 06.05.2008 |
| ... you may be asking yourself. Maybe you're looking for the newest a greatest Papervision3D experiment, and to be honest I would love to work on it, but I recently switched from Windows to Ubuntu 8.04 at home (Yes, I tried MacOS before, and, for me, it's even worst than Windows). This is something I tried previously, but didn't achieve because there weren't good tools for developing Actionscript on Linux. However, this time, the kind guys of FDT sponsored my Open source projects with a license, and that was great, I use it for developing the apps listed there. But when it comes to experimenting with graphics I'm making myself use Ubuntu. The bad news is that FDT doesn't work on Eclipse/Ubuntu environment, neither they support that. Actually, it almost works, it's just the formatter that doesn't work. So I was about to fail again, but I decided to remove all the priority to Actionscript development and look for code-fun alternatives. Although most of my friends were trying to persuade me to move to C++ I still like the accessibility of having your work easy to watch with a click from the browser. So the first thing I tried was Processing, unfortunately the GUI was pretty unusable for me. So I tried to, somehow, develop with Eclipse Processing apps. Didn't work nicely either. So, there I was with Eclipse and a lot of patches for doing p5 apps. Wait, Eclipse?! Isn't Eclipse supposed to be mainly for Java stuff? Uhmm... So yeah, slowly I've been doing some progress on developing on Java / JoGL. Java is quite hard compared to Actionscript, there aren't as many internet resources and even for doing a Audio Player you can spend a weekend. But with a bit of patience things are getting together and are starting to work. You can see some very-early tests I'm doing here:   And on this one I already have a OGG player and some debug info on the top o/ http://ricardocabello.com/projects/inspire08/05/ (Sorry about the tune :P) So, give me a couple of months playing around with this, and, hopefully, my new experiments will have the complexity of flight404 ones, still being real time (which I assume his ones are also real time, but for some reason only releases video files). Anyway, the sooner I get something I'll post it here with source files, which hopefully will help to others to get started and play around too. On the other hand, I'm recently doing some Actionscript experiments for Hi-ReS!, which I think will end up being pretty good. Time will tell. And, if this wasn't enough, from now on Mr.doob is not just myself anymore. My partner in life just left her work and is now helping with the freelance projects Mr.doob gets :) Wait?! Didn't say on the top that Mr.doob didn't do any freelance projects anymore?! Somehow they still arrive, I'll change that anyway :D Ahh... exciting times! |

| SORRY! Is not that I don't care about what you have to say, of course I do, but they are speaking louder and I lost my patience :( |
