Hi Jim,
I see no reason why Flex can't be used for interactive artwork. The Canvas
component in Flex is derived from Sprite, so anything that you would do in a
Sprite can be done in a Canvas.
Except that for simply drawing shapes, the Shape class is a better
projects or would you use Flex?

It might not be a horrible idea to create two projects: A Flex UI that
loads the canvas .swf built as an ActionScript project (either in Flash or
Flex). You just need to reference swfLoaderInstance.content (or
swfLoaderInstance.content['movieClipInstanceName'] if it's a child) and you
have your

I think it is a bad idea. The more swf files, the more complicated. Keep
it to just one if possible.
Separating the code on the other hand is a good idea. Use packages for
that, not separate swf files.
Flex is for RIA's and helps you with layouts and common controls and doesn't
really provide anything useful for generating art with either vectors or
drawing to a sprite. With the framework itself bulking up the size of your
swf and consuming additional resources, it's not really a good thing.

Can anyone point out to me any interesting art projects that are Flex
projects? Particularly what I'm looking for are simple projects that combine
some of the benefits of Flex with the benefits of Flash concerning
generative visual art.
It's looking too much like a no fun zone at the mo. Any
