Media Player

admin — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 02:30:04 +0000

A full AS3 flash player based off the JWPlayer. The concept and technology backing this interface is quite astonishing. Speech to Voice technology allows users to post to blogs over via the phone and 3G video calls let users post videos and rich media. The played is updated in real time over the STOMP protcol.

All this is thrown together in Flash to provided a dinky little app. It really needs to built from the ground up as JWPlayer isn’t really cut out for some the media being displayed. Still, I imagine this type of service will be standard quite soon. Facebook is getting close.

This was the last site I produced in AS2. Mark has some understanding of Flash and was happy controlling the content via XML files. The site is quite easy to maintain and organizes over 100 photos into different categorys. I like the menu on this site and the random colours it generates. Check the site for some great club photography, Mark is very talented.

Away3D Strange Attractors

Math can be beautiful. These chaotic strange attractors can produce some beautiful patterns. Done in Flex with Away3D and using three different attractors: Lorenz, Rossler and Duffing. The math is quite easy once you get your head round it. The wiki pages just make it look difficult. Use the mouse to view the attractor in 3D and mess about with the different variables at the side to create some of your own patterns.

Away3D Space Invaders

A 3 by 5 random 2D array is mirrored to a five by five array which is then translated to 3D via Away3D. These objects are similar to the little fellas seen in the space invaders game of arcade lore. Easy to to do and a little bit of fun.

Soundwave 3D

I was playing with Away3D again. This time we have a audio visual mix. A dot grid of simple sprites are given XYZ co-ords. X represents time, Z represents stereo and Y amplitude. Amplitude decays over time to zero.

This full flash portal to four major nightclubs in Shibuya runs off XML controlled via the iFlyer CMS. The first major site I did in full AS3 with FlashDevelop.

Particle Render

ByteArray created from a Collada XML file rendering a lot of particles is no problem for today’s machines.

The credit goes to the amazing guys at guys at unitzeroone. I just slapped Away3D’s DAE importer into a byte array.
