Today calls for celebration - wrapping up close to 5 months worth of hard work.
Binding the evaluation, builing the dvd I had authored....seeing it all come together is definitely worth it.

Adobe Encore
prop
is probably one of the worst programmes I've ever used!
I kept getting error messages and just as I thought I'm all sorted
it won't build the dvd properly.
I have been stuck at the following screen for at least 10 times now..and still stuck.
no matter how many times i close it and try to change something and then start it again, it just does the same!
oh my...so close to the finishing...yet so far :(

chicken a la carte
this is a short film i stumbled across whilst surfing.

"This film is about the hunger and poverty brought about by Globalization. There are 10,000 people dying everyday due to hunger and malnutrition. This short film shows a forgotten portion of the society. The people who live on the refuse of men to survive. What is inspiring is the hope and spirituality that never left this people."
(direct quote from http://www.cultureunplugged.com/play/1081/Chicken-a-la-Carte)
I have never seen a short that has touched me in such a way - the way it has been portrayed etc. though I would say the only downfall is the sound, its a bit rubbish. But other than that, sincerely love it.

interactivity - ultimately the question is how do we get the audience and the user to participate, therefore affecting the end result.
I found my answer, well, a very good example of the answers.

On this site, we have old school arcade games, and many applications involving the mic input. Playing music and seeing some pretty balls bounce up and down on your screen, blowing a dandelion with your mic, drawing in 3-d so we can find some constructive use for our lying around 3-d glasses...
When I first found this website, I felt like a kid in a playground once more, every link was a suprise and every suprise made me realise how much possibilities are left out there still.
I'm such a happy kid now.
