Hey,

Having just completed a project using vector vision, i cant wait to use it again! We have had a lot of positive feedback for the way it looks. I would recommend to anyone wanting to use fonts in 3D that this is the way forward.

I still cant get over the way mathieu-badimon over at five3d creates fonts to be rendered by the engine. You have to download a flash panel from his site which you pass in the font you want a 3d version of, and it creates a class with all the typographical meta data about each glyph needed to allow flash to draw with the standard ‘lineTo’ function each letter with the correct letter spacing: check out this class: HouschkaLight.as tis pretty amazing stuff!

Check out the photography agency site that we just did that I used this in trayler.co.uk

I love this type of pointless interaction that is so engaging and can keep you entertained for ages; I spent at least 10 mins drawing lines with this app.

Basically Yellowtail by Golan Levin is a program that animates and repeats backwards whatever you draw with your mouse, the site describes it as:

Yellowtail is an interactive software system for the gestural creation and performance of real-time abstract animation. Yellowtail repeats a user’s strokes end-over-end, enabling simultaneous specification of a line’s shape and quality of movement. Each line repeats according to its own period, producing an ever-changing and responsive display of lively, worm-like textures.

If you like this type of thing have a look at some of the other interactive applets on the site and spend even more time moving your mouse around the screen for your own enjoyment.

Airtight (aka Felix Turner) has been doing some great stuff recently check out his site here. My favorite is this which I think could have some great uses online.

We are organising our first “Flex in the Pub” gathering next week (Wednesday 1st August) so if Flex get your gonads going come down to meet everyone. Nothing formal, just a get together in The Lamb… Check out our Meetup page for more details. We’re getting the first round, and there’s some free stuff from Adobe (thanks Ben!).
