Very nice and inspiring day at Multi-Mania. My session went down very well, a little bit short but i had a great time.
We started the day with an Adobe keynote presented by Serge and Jason. Serge showed briefly flash cs4, Jason showed us the speech to text function that may or may be not in future version of Premiere.
Aral gave an inspirring session about “Ruling the web in 32 steps“. End conclusion as a flash developer we have to learn the web.
Next “We are Hoox”. Not the most interesting session for me but amasing what you can do with maps and 3D.
Next up Wim Vanhenden with “Having fun with FLASH and AIR”. Realy cool (Wims middle name) session, what i liked was that somebody is showing that you still can use Flash for making trendy apps.
I ended the day conference day with “pixel whisperer”, Mario Klingeman. Amazing stuff what you can with graphics and mathematics.
At the award show the mct and dae students showed their best work. Keynote speaker Hoss Gifford gave amusing show of his latest work. Lesson learned: Narrative and simple.
I’m not going to talk about the after party and the after after party. But i had a very nice time with a lot of beers and champagne (thx for that Hoss).
Koen, Klaus, Wouter, Christel, Ellen, Claudia, Jynse and the rest of the crew did an amazing job!
Multi-mania has always been one of my favourite multimedia events. First as student, later as attendee, last 2 years as speaker. It all started as a very small award show, now a full day event with 5 tracks and a lot of international speakers. And for the first time it’s fully booked.
Next to my own session “AIR: playing with api’s”, you can find me at following sessions:
Monday i will be hanging out with these guys ;-).
It’s becoming a yearly tradition to speak at the greatest Belgian multimedia event.
My session is going to be a 120 minute hands-on session about AIR. You will play with the Sqlite, file-system and drag and drop.
So see you all at multi-mania (may 23th 2008)!
This morning I attended a Plugmedia event. The session was about making your website accessible and presented by Roel Van Gils from AnySurfer.
Accessibility is something that i’m always talking about in my classes, but it it seems that students most of the time don’t get what it’s all about. Maybe a little trick to persuade them is to let them use Jaws instead of their eyes for a day.
