Please turn over - an interface metapher to touch!
Mario Klingemann is programmer/designer/animator
and lives in Munich, Germany.
As a member of côdeazur he works in the front line on
the development of rich internet applications.
Flash sites - where you can turn over like you do in a
magazine or in a book - could be seen more often in
the last month. No wondering!
Books are the most knows platform of user interfaces
in the world!
Mario Klingemann developed as one of the first within
the scene a pure actionscript based interface for the
page turn. It is very flexible - in opposite to
keyframe based solutions. And it seems to be natural!
In his workshop he will present the mathematical
basics of this interface and he gives you a glimp
behind the curtain of the functionality of his page
turn engine.
... and if you saw his candle blow out workshop on the
shockwards last november (which is available on the
shockwards website as video stream) ... you know what
this means!
