One of my favorite class is "Self Engineering" and I think in this stressfull and information overload world, we all need this kind of lecture. Personally, I found this lecture is amazing... We are mostly know how the machine or electronic device works and operates but are we know how the human body works and operates? Once we understand at least some knowledge about how human body works and operates then the new world with new view will be opened for us. Special message for desi, we'll talk about this sometime, ok? I think I can give you some answer / Read more …

Finally I finished rebuild my project in Director MX. It was previously built with Flash MX but it was not so efficient and kinda bloated. It only take a couple of simple scripts and a few amount of frames in Director. And I don't even have to do anything with my digital video (in Quicktime format) other than put all of them in one directory and let the project take them randomly one by one and play them sequentially. So the saying "Use the right tool for the right job" is absolutely correct =). I am quite content right now / Read more …
