It’s really simple drawing installation.
You get your iPhone and access the URL from your browser in the instruction on the projection, and just start drawing, and you can see it right away on the projection.
You don’t need to install any application.

You can check some videos here: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=106749376013168

So, I used HTML5 + JavaScript for the web application, PHP for the socket (I know, it’s not the best solution, but it was what I could’ve done at this time), C++ & OpenFrameworks for the application running for the projection and a MySQL database to store all the drawn data.

What I’ve learned from this?
- you don’t really need to learn Objective-C and pay hundreds to Apple to make some simple application
- don’t try to do what everyone is doing
- I know c++ now
- flash is slow even on AIR
- sockets on PHP works pretty well
- HTML5 won’t be replacing Flash any time soon
- people are afraid to do something different at work until someone does something new
- don’t try to do everything by yourself

Anyway, at the end, everything went well, personally the result was really good.

If you read this post before 29th of March, you can still go check it out at Hoxton Square.

At beginning of November I started working at unit9 (http://www.unit9.com) a interactive media company based in London.

As first project, I did Guinness Bring it to Life (http://www.bringittolife.tv)
It’s a project that integrates Google Earth plug-in, Flash, Javascript, Facebook, and lot of other technologies.
Basically, you can build your planet with different terrains on Google Earth plug-in and bring life to your new planet.

Last week I went to play Carling in Kent with some friends.
It was amazing, much exciting than watching someone playing. You should play it when you have chance.

And, this week, I made a installation at unit9, my very first one, that I’ll explain on next post.

It’s not my first work here in Japan, but I assume it’s my debut project.
It’s a website for the new Sony walkman. People here in Japan uses the word Oneseg(One segment) for devices that have multi-uses.
Actually, I don’t know what this walkman is capable, but it looks like a walkman that you can watch tv broadcasts and record it.

The flash stills a little heavy processing, actually I didn’t have much time to improve it.
I’m using Papervision3D on the ‘G’ Grid Mode. Actually I made plenty of examples… maybe we will update with new Papervision3D views.
Clicking on ‘S’, you can upload you picture and than the magic does the rest, and your picture will show up singing. And also, if approved, your singing picture will be broadcasted on Japanese TV.

Anyway, enjoy it.
