[-empyre-] and that makes 3

hi again

to see some examples of my own work please visit 
http://hypertext.rmit.edu.au/vog/ you need:
a full install of quicktime 5.x or better
some bandwidth. most of the vogs will work over 56k but they usually 
run around a meg a minute and the average duration would be 2 
minutes. some though are up to 4mb.


a) they're all written in quicktime
b) i treat quicktime as a writing rather than distribution or 
publication environment
c) no, i don't use flash
d) yes, anything you can do in flash you can do in quicktime (there 
are reasons for one or the other)
e) i'm happy to talk about tools
f) compression
g) why i tile them
h) how any of them works (all of them require you to do something to 
them while they play, i think)
i) happy to take any of them as an example and peel away what/how it 
works to show what is going on
j) yes, i think there are oodles of narrative possibilities here
k) you can load external content dynamically and based on user events

sharpen those scissors, wet that glue... (ah, cut+paste)

cheers
