So I’ve talked aplenty about my personal major project, but at the same time we are working on a collaborative project which is due to be presented a week tomorrow. I’m working with Rob Strode, and together we’re working towards creating a musical space that is affected by the users movements within a certain area.

Today Rob and I finished up working on a miniature version of the prototype. The full scale version will be rather big, around 2.8 meters in width, with the tracking camera raised about 4-5 meters in the air, so we wanted to create a small version of it before undertaking the task. I’ll post more on the specifics of the project once I’ve scanned in the sketches and organised my sketchbook a little more.

I found this whilst browsing around Design You Trust just now. I love it.

It hasn’t all been about working on Rave on Air these past few weeks. I just recently completed a Flash website for a friend - who studies broadcasting - about Lonely Planet. The footage was filmed in Morocco, and then uploaded so that I could turn it into a website. Due to the style of the website, I decided that a Flash based site would work best.

From what I hear the reception from Lonely Planet was very good. However someone on their team has already come up with a similar idea already. Perhaps if we had been a year earlier things would have turned out differently. I’m not sure if I can upload the final piece however as Lonely Planet only permitted use of their branding as a portfolio piece, so I don’t know if I’m allowed to put it on the internet. However it will be a good offline piece.

Save more frequently lest Flash ups and crashes on you…

I’ve just finished the portfolio page. Some stuff is relatively new, some of it’s a little older. I’ve got a few more websites to add, but I’ll do that at a later date. But as it stands, the Graphic section, Web Design section and the Flash section are all uploaded and updated.

I’m planning on adding a couple of more sections soon too. Namely a photography section and a section for all of the work I do (or have done) at Ravensbourne. But I’ll need to gather all of the stuff together and get that organised before hand.
