thanks, Lui. i didn't know they listened to Old Hank in Italia, but am glad to hear it. my Rev dance app. uses images (formerly) buttons to of dancers moving around the screen. rotating the image of a dancer (in a 32 x 32 area) distorted the image, so i just pixeled out quasi-clones facing in 8 directions. i am using separate cards for each iteration, if that is the correct expression, so that directional arrows can be drawn on each card. at the moment all of the "guys" and "dolls" are Mexican Folklorico dancers. there is a group of kids i am videoing extensively and would like to try out the concept of stepping through Rev code to teach them math. an example: my start point for a dancer is 100,100 the destination is 180,140. i can choose to delineate 8 increments (to go with music) so the images will move in increments of -(80/10) on the x axis and -(40/8) on the y axis. right away you have introduced Cartesian coordinates and shown how computers count down the screen. the teaching pros could use this tool in any number of ways. whatever quizes, games, and teaching strategies they like. same thing with the music. everything is number based, and all of the calculations can be stepped through and shown to be very simple if taken one step at a time. a way to combine composition. math and logic. thanks for letting me bend your ear, Erik ===== [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.erikhansen.org __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
