Amsterdam Bound

10/28/2008 04:02 pm in Conferences

FiTC Amsterdam is getting talked up a bit lately. Not sure if I mentioned here that I’ll be speaking. I missed out last year. Been to the Netherlands once in 2004 - Enschede near the German border in 2004 for a smallish conference called Media Elements. Had a blast. But only saw the airport and [...]

HEAD FAIL

10/26/2008 12:42 am in Conferences

Sorry to all of you who showed up at the <head> conference to watch my presentation. I’m not sure exactly what happened, but we just couldn’t keep the sound up. The microphone kept cutting out. I tried two different microphones on my computer, switched over to Chris Allen’s computer, even switched Internet connections. No matter [...]

Message from John Davey

10/06/2008 07:43 pm in Conferences

John has been frantically trying to respond to various FOTB posts, specifically in regard to the last session, but for some reason his computer is not letting him. So he asked me to post this: I am both pleased and saddened by all the conversation going on about FOTB’s final session. Each year I make huge [...]

FOTB Presentation Slides

10/06/2008 04:18 pm in Conferences

I can’t really say how much you’ll get out of these slides if you didn’t see the presentation, but if you saw it, you’ll at least be able to see some of the code that I kind of rushed through. http://www.bit-101.com/fotb/AdvancedASAnimation.pdf Also, at the end of my presentation, I showed off this little app I created: http://www.bit-101.com/verletbuilder/ And some [...]

Back from Flash On The Beach 08

10/05/2008 03:45 pm in Conferences

Really enjoyed this edition of Flash on the Beach, a truly unique conference with great balance between technical and creative presentations and probably the friendliest atmosphere you can expect. During my presentation I covered my current work in progress, including new research and workflow procedures that will be published when ready. Also had the honour to participate [...]

Flash on the Beach Trailer

10/04/2008 10:51 pm in Conferences

Meant to mention this earlier, but Rob Chiu, aka The Ronin, did this excellent trailer for Flash on the Beach this year. I’ve been a fan of Rob since I met him at the Media Elements in NL in 2004. Followed his flickr stream since then. He’s the kind of photographer that makes me think, [...]

Flash on the Beach

10/04/2008 07:10 pm in Conferences

Well, another FOTB is done and gone. Honestly, after the first one being so fantastic, I arrive at each one with a bit of fear that I might have overhyped it to newcomers and even to myself. But for the third time in a row, John has pulled off the best conference of the year [...]

I’m in Brighton!

09/26/2008 04:05 pm in Conferences

Finally made it after… about 16 hours of travel. Got to the airport a couple hours early like a good boy, to discover all flights to the UK were seriously backed up due to busted radar or something. Then, when we finally got over there, we had to wait close to an hour after landing [...]

Four days from now I’ll be in Brighton for the annual Flash on the Beach bash. The last couple years I went up to London and hung out with Tink for a couple days before the conference itself, which was great. But this year I’m going to switch it up a bit and head straight [...]
