action, where’s my script

Make that Jo Ractliffe solo exhibition a duo show with Terry Kurgan (see entry from 2 days ago)….

Been diving headlong into Flash MX and getting into actionscript lately. Although a bit daunting, it’s not very dissimilar from j-script, or any other scripting language that matter. I was expecting it to be closer to lingo (Director’s inherent object oriented programming language), but this is not the case. Granted, this is for a corporate-like job (web site for education), but it’s still fun to learn new technologies.

And, speaking of corporate and new technologies, Templar, over at blink, has purchased me a copy of Danny Rozin’s VideoMask Xtra for PC, so that I can throw something together for a presentation he is working on. I was hoping that VideoMask MX might be out soon, so that I can work in OS X, but the good news is that a PC version of stuttering may be in the works for the near future… Rock on.

matrices suck

The new Matrix movie has to be one of the worst films I’ve seen in years – and
I see a lot of movies.

A cluster of Mac G5s at Virginia Tech highlighted as likely to be the 3rd fastest super-computer in the world (and the cheapest on the market!) – thanks to Angus Davidson for the link.
Another
American patent bite in the ass – thanks again, Angus.
Per my question a few days ago, the new Jitter Beta for Windows (Cycling ’74) does indeed require an external VDIG when working with live video, just like the TTC-Pro Xtra for Director (Danny Rozin). WinVDIG is a free one that works alright, I hear.
My site is now the feeling-lucky first-listing on google
when searching for either "nathaniel

Word on the street is that Pretoria’s Oppikoppi
Festival, just outside of Johannesburg, will have a digital art sub-fest,
of mostly video and sound, curated by Marcel Rossouw and Marcus Neustetter.

Clark Says Bremer Should Be Replaced – the newest presidential candidate in the batch calls for a non-American to head the reconstruction effort in Iraq. Props to him…
