![The Magic Mirror is just a little demo. It’s still not complete. The idea is to add Facebook-Connect so it would know what kind of [spoiler-alert “product”] to show, personalized on your gender, age and so on..
I’m also not sure if there is a company that would want to make fun of their clients (Dove is just used as an example). So this might just remain a little lab demo.
Note: If you can’t see yourself in the mirror after confirming in the camera settings, just right-click and pick the right webcam driver.](http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kwwtvtyWW41qz72boo1_500.jpg)

This radial Flash menu is dynamic and can get changed trough an xml file. But of course it doesn’t fit all situations. It has its limits with adding a lot of items or long names.
PS. An additional feature (not implemented in this version) could be: You can spin the wheel and where it stops, that’s where it navigates to. Like a wheel of fortune. So you randomly navigation trough the site. Not really good usability, but fun. Hehe..
“You broke my iPhone” is an idea I had for an iPhone app. So I did a simple demo as a prove of concept.
The idea is that after starting the app, you give your iPhone to a friend, or just let it sit on the table. Your friend swipes it on and sees a screen shot of your actual home screen, thinking it is the home screen. ;-) But then as soon as he touches the screen, the glass breaks and you scream: F**k, you broke my iPhone!
And now the bad news: I don’t know how to program Objective-C.. so I guess I just have to wait for Flash CS5!
Robox, the dancing robot is an ongoing project. I’m trying to make the robot dance to music.
He is using flash’s computeSpectrum() to get a range of low and high frequncies that trigger the movement. It’s still not perfect.. In fact it’s more like an equalizer. One day hopefully I’m able to add some sort of beat detection, so it would look as good as Keepon.
Here the first drawing out of my scetchbook that got the whole project started.
This is a Flash widget with talking characters. There is no need for user sign up, everyone can write messages that everyone can read. anonymous and totally random, almost like the public twitter feed.
In addition you can change the look of the character and an administrator can write custom messages with links that will show up eventually.. so adidas or whoever would use this widget, could promote their products in a more engaging way.
Note: adidas is used only as an example and is not affiliated in any way. Character Design by Brock.
Feeling lucky?
