Toad Particle Draw on Android
This is a bit silly – been playing with Processing, getting into the deep geometric capabilities of toxiclibs and GLGraphics and Android. It started as a new VJ… er, “pixelist” app for live performance for a jam session celebrating our friend Olivier Ruellet’s life and untimely death last year from what we think was swine…

Free Memory in Android
A few students of mine have been wondering about checking how much memory is being used on Android (using Processing) for their games, so I came up with a simple sketch that uses some built-in Android Debug features (reference here):

I’ve looked at using Processing for it, and Flash, but nothing really speaks to me as far as speed and reliability and flexibility of development. So I looked into OpenFrameworks and ARToolKitPlus, which was recommended to…

Creative Pact Day 6: SeaGame v001
Today (for Creative Pact 2010) I took my little game engine and created a fully working game out of it. I finished some more assets – rocks and shells and things you find near the water, traced from some pictures I took on the banks of the Thames. The goal is to collect the buried treasure…
