summer.05: Code and Me

// Class 5 and Final Project

At this point, I became interested in ring buffers and drawing animation rather than drawing shapes and pixels. This experiment was developed over a series Flash files and revolved around the mouse cursor creating x and y points that were fed into a multidimensional array. Once the drawing completes, the application would redraw the original motion by going through the array. You will need Macromedia Flash Player 6.0+ to view. The Flash FLA files were built in Flash MX 2004 Pro.

This is a spinning cross that blurs over time. The spin is created using trigonometry functions and the blur is achieved using a blur class.
