-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all,
First thanks for Pharo. Is a really nice clean innovative environment I have just pointed it to some java teachers/users and they like the overall look and feel. Now some small context: I had taken a short seminar on interactive art. We have used vvvv[1] to make some small experiments and the idea was to use arduino with it, but being it windows only I though in exploring something easy to use and then I found Physical Etoys from Richo's team. [1] http://vvvv.org [2] http://tecnodacta.com.ar/gira/projects/physical-etoys/arduino/ We don't make any further work arduino, but the essence of the seminar was overlapping meanings to create new meanings. So my idea is to make some images appear and vanish slowly after a while and also put some microblogging flux of information. I started with etoys, but after seeing that the tile language will not give me the proper expressiveness to create this project I have "go down" to Smalltalk using Pharo. I'm a total newbie but I have found some ways to load images (using SketchMorph). Now I want to make them vanish slowly and also load the microblogging stream (from Twitter and Identica, containing an special hashtag). This is supposed to be a small week project but is taking longer. I have asked in the Squeakland and SqueakNewbies mailing list and I got an answer from the etoys perspective but is not what I need so any pointer to the proper documentation will be appreciated (hopefully on Sunday :-P) Meanwhile I will keep reading the Pharo by Example book trying to get the spirit of development process and waiting for your kindly help :), to hopefully get some prototype on Monday. Cheers, Offray -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJNs4TsAAoJEGiex2828ICwbfMIALJlY2LqVCYA0s1wJReveeL5 SWNpnoGEnbwvnZIdn9x6IKkXnEBcd6XDOL09aZtcnSpOIABqsYD65vw5+O9FINnI 7WRQKmYag+0dlvifrJY5/eAlMuJ++5c90sqB2VuPxruD4Npkwcui3aVZUHLFHSIl Y+PdO8S2cw6+dObS4lLIy3YmhdNp14ZIsWDFZdKMpofaT1dsDt1gEXzDUz/HaPKA Ft0lFUsT6jHLUNE9Pd2O9XcjUeOwwZDHNyvm0Ij/wcJ+HEH9v5OsuXa1C0ayiQb6 0gQJhT8OjYgwRh1GfNKL+nCczUs/uetgZ4z0twY8GT6eCFrJbva516eoJ0UVutk= =Y2AY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
