I just finished making an interactive composition in Flash for my Computing in Design class entitled “Help Hammy.” My concept was inspired by the Lucas Arts puzzle adventure games, in which a player explores and interacts with the environment in a spirit of playful discovery. “Help Hammy” was my first serious foray into Actionscript, which happily, has syntax very similar to Java. Learning how to animate in Flash was a bit trickier for me, and as you can see, artwork is not my specialty! However, I learned quite a bit in the process and hope you enjoy the result.

I noticed this sidebar alongside the page of a reading I was assigned for my design seminar. Suddenly I feel extra motivated to finish my work for that class. No need to upset the professors…
My favorite in the 50 Strange Buildings collection is #30: Erwin Wurm: House Attack (Vienna, Austria). The name alone won me over, but the visual is priceless. What’s your pick of the bunch?

There are those who watch the game and those who play the game. Which are you?

This pie chart made me laugh and reminded me that it’s nearly October. Pie season is almost upon us.
