Workbook: Pictures of Said Book...
Selections form my workbook can be found on my Flickr Account, Here.
Cloud Machine Promo
The idea behind the cloud machine is one of ultimate convergence - What would happen to media if the traditional restrictions of Time, Location and Choice was torn down in one device?
This is something we are already heading towards with Video on demand services such as the BBC iPlayer and 4OD, Blogs and RSS delivering instant news, and with 3G and Wifi access slowly becoming ubiqutious across the country, you may already have a Cloud Machine in your backpack or your pocket.

Courseworks: Intergrated Datawork/Database Cinema
You can view my group project, the Randomiser, here. It's in flash and is rather slow running from an internet connection but it runs fine locally.
'Designed' as a tool to enhance the creative process, the Randomiser picks Three random clips from a Database, and plays them in three random positions on the stage. It has potential for some development, but in the current version it is rather crude.
Feel free to 'Play' with it. It's not the most wonderful of pieces, but it works and shouldn't wreck your computer.

A Long, Long Summer
So as I hurtle towards, rather shockingly quickly, the end of my first year of iDat, I'm faced with and inevitable truth:
A Four Month Summer.
I Won't be wasting this time, mind. I shall be working on a project to pass the time. But what?
Well that's where you come in, dear reader. Below, there are a few initial ideas, please feel free to comment on them or suggest other ideas. The list shall be added to, and have stuff removed from it it, until there is some clear ideas that are both interesting and feasible. At that point, I shall open a poll widget and leave it to both you and fellow readers to decide which project I shall undertake.
The First Ideas List is:

At that point, I shall open a poll widget and leave it to both you and fellow readers to decide which project I shall undertake.
The First Ideas List is:
- Simple Social Network - Cobble together a Social Networking Engine, likely with ASP (although it may be a good excuse to play with PHP) . Include very basic features like setting up friend relationships, searching and commenting profiles. This could serve as a foundation for potential future projects and coursework.
- RPG Engine - As The Name suggest, build a 2D Role Playing Game Engine for an Idea between me and a Friend. It seems like it could be simple (I may be underestimating what 'simple' is) - A focus on OOP could streamline the project. It would most likely be made in XNA, so I'd have to roll up my sleeves and learn C++.
- A Generically Pointless Facebook App - Build a Facebook (and/or OpenSocial) app, likely with ASP again. Can't really flesh this out anymore. An excuse to be blamed for spamming people perhaps?
