HapStar
Hapstar is the new name for my little bioinformatics project, visualising population structure from differences between genetic sequences. The last few days I’ve done a lot of work on the GUI, allowing you to drag nodes around by hand, zoom in and out and navigate the graph. Also quite a bit of graph theory, validating…

Groworld at dorbotlondon
I’ll be doing a presentation of groworld including some live demos of the game prototypes tomorrow at the christmas dorkbot london. It’ll also be good to see what Sarah Angliss has been doing lately with robotics, Alex’s acid sketching and the other good stuff being presented.

Wilderness plant growth
I’ve got plant growth working in the wilderness game world, and a lot of client server stuff in so players can see what other people have grown in the game. I’m basing my code from the excellent haxeChat example as it’s very unfamiliar territory for me. Unfortunately the remaining issue is how to get the…

Wilderness
I’m not sure if this is another groworld game prototype or something else at the moment. Use the cursor keys to move around, when you get to the edge of the visible bit of world you can step into the next (as long there is not water on the other side). It’s a pseudo infinite…

More on haxe development
I thought I’d expand a little on the al jazari flash game, and how to develop flash games using free software. Haxe is really rather nice, and although I’d prefer something with more parentheses (and ironically, less static typing) it does make programming for flash a nicer experience than I’d been led to believe is…

A week in Budapest
I spent last week in Budapest, the first half was a lirec consortium meeting. We spent Tuesday morning finding out about dog and human behaviour at the Department of Ethology at the Eötvös Loránd University. I think the most facinating part for me was the area of human understanding of dog vocalisation, as we have…

Al Jazari in flash! (or haxe)
My first flash/haxe app, which I found really fun to make. Click on the code to change the instructions, and on the cubes to activate or deactivate triggers – there is only one robot and one sample (808 handclap) working for the moment. Here’s more about the al jazari project. [update – added some more…

Plotting face space
I’m flitting around a lot between projects… Back on appearance models for the lirec project, this is a small slice of face space, the plots represent images of the individuals in different lighting conditions – seeing how the lighting affects the spread of the data. One of the images for each individual is shown at…
