TRAILER Arduino: The Documentary (available on HD) from gnd on Vimeo.
The trailer for the Arduino documentary looks pretty sweet.
Below you’ll find the link to a well-written post on getting started with Flash AS3 and Phidgets by Mike Chambers. Phidgets are similar to the much hyped Arduino. Both are a set of boards and sensors that allow a developer to program for external interactions. Very cool stuff with seemingly limitless possibilities.
Ben Fry, co-creator of Processing, announced today that he has a new company, Fathom. Along with Teri Schindler, Chris Brown, and Lynn Kiang, the group will focus on data visualization. “Fathom Information Design helps clients understand complex data through information graphics, interactive tools, and software for the installations, the web and mobile devices,” the website states.
