XML

December 12th, 2006

As the simulacrum work reaches its finalisation point, and all I would be able to do is sit and wait, my attention turns to the XML work and HCI essay (both of which have been very slowly warming up for the past couple of weeks). Between driving and setting the final 20 second simulacrum scene up for rendering, this morning has been dedicated to creating an XML search script in actionscript (Flash yet again…).

View the XML project as it comes along.
To get results, try the search terms ‘silver’ and ‘blue’ for now, but anything else if its there can be searched for.

Finishing the Simulacrum Project

And finally, the last 20 second section of my simulacrum video is complete. Saving it as Quicktime initially created a 1.3GB file, however this was before I set it to compress with mpeg4, giving me a nice 118MB 100% quality file. Still nothing near the size I would reasonably put online though. : (
