FlashForward NYC 2005 Finish
The FlashForward conference at the New Yorker Hotel wrapped up today. I can honestly say that it was the strongest conference yet, every year there is fantastic work but this year seems to be one of those years where new ideas and technologies are coming to the community. The addition of two Processing talks(processing.org) to the event seem to indicate that Actionscript may be hitting a wall, especially in the areas of physical computing.
Elegant and powerful Actionscripter Erik Natzke did a presentation of his work over the past 5 years and how is has evolved over that time. One of the funniest bits of Erik's talk was his tweening project that spanned hundrends of layers in a very complicated animation. Natzke's move to coding animation seemed to make all the difference to his work.
Always a pleasure to attend, Conratulations Stew and Lynda for putting on a great conference.
