Whipped up this cute looking Load / Save Dialog for Zero Gear last night with graphics David gave me. It has a pretty large external interface so Brian can customize every button and label in Lua / C++. Hopefully you’ll see it in action in the Zero Gear Garage soon.
The garage portion of Zero Gear will allow players to customize their kart and character. This portion of the game with heavy utilization of Hikari which enabled me to engineer the gui elements in flash and actionscript. We are using the open source Ogre3d to render the characters and environment. Also you will hear some […]
In my time at Chumby, I’ve made a few widgets on my own time that I wanted to see on my chumby device. All the widgets were written in Actionscript 2 for the Flash Lite 3 chumby device.
Recently My brother Dave and Brian who compose NimbleBit who are making Zero Gear started using an awesome library for OGRE called Hikari whilch lets them integrate flash movies into OGRE. So over the last day or two in my spare time I made them a mini map. Brian has a much better […]
Reality Check makes a lot of interactive demos and interfaces for everything from kiosks, to video on-demand, to websites. One ring menu that I coded up in Actionscript 3 and Papervision3D ended up being used on multiple projects, so I added some modularity and defined the ring and its elements in XML. You […]

I swore to myself that I wasn’t going to write any more flex/flickr toys since they seem so cliche, but when I saw all the cool panoramic, equirectangular photos on flickr this morning I knew I had to write this when I got home from work today. Clicking on the […]
I decided to dive into Flex a couple days ago, and I have to say I’m very impressed at how much functionality you can get out of a minimal number of lines of mxml. I was able to build in minutes what would take me hours to code from scratch in Flash. This toy/experiment started […]
Before I go see a movie in theaters I always check the rating it got on RottenTomatoes, I’ve always found it an accurate judge of a movie’s worth (to the annoyance of my fiance). In the previous version of my site I had a little data visualization toy for the certified fresh movies on RT, […]
After seeing the interesting patterns generated by Jason Salavon’s Every Playboy Centerfold I decided to play around with averaging images with similar tags on flickr. I ended up having to adjust the way I computed the running averaging with different thresholds to generate interesting images that didn’t turn mostly grey. The most interesting results […]
Another short-lived previous version of my personal website. While it had a pretty slick interface which used PaperVision3D and lots of dirty little PHP scripts, the whole site slowly evolved out of a demo I did so the design wasn’t planned at all and it became difficult to add to the site. Rather […]
