After Adobe Max 2008 conference, they announced a new technique called “Stratus”.
Stratus is a p2p service for more than two people watching on the same video sharing the seed and make the video loading faster.

(This article talks a lot on TCP and RTMFP in a clear way. Before I only have a general idea on p2p, but with this article I gain more insight.)

第一次友人S拿他的畫作給我看得時候, 我就對她細膩的筆觸, 以及獨特的構圖風格留下很深的印象, 當她跟我說她想要在插畫這個領域試試看的時候, 我跟她說這需要努力, 但以她的天分而言,值得嘗試. 從那天以後, 我就一直在等待她的成果, 是不是累積了很久, 終於讓我等到了. 希望從這個聯展, 能讓她抓到一個契機繼續創作下去！

因為我更期待他的個展啦～

各位紐約的友人,記得帶個數百塊前去捧捧場. 友人 S, 加油囉～

Destination Art Space, a gallery within an upscale boutique merging fashion and art, has been hosting our brand new SHOW & SELL series, The Art Market Part from October 30^th to December 30^th.

This group exhibition is in TWO parts,

Part I: 10/30 – 11/30
Part II: 12/4 – 12/30

Each part is featuring fifteen of emerging and professional artists. This time, we would like to invite you for the PartII starting from December 4^th!

Like our popular SHOW & SELL series: The $99 Art Fair, this Art Market series also maintains affordable prices (less than $500!) and a variety of artwork.

Pick your favorites off our walls and bring them home to grace your own!

With your returning favorites and new artists, there’ll be more unique pieces none higher than $500. Everyone can find something they’ll want to own and cherish.

destination is making art accessible to the public at incredible prices, offering great artists a public forum.

Adobe announced a new application called Catalyst, which is a Flex based IDE that allows designer to design or modify UI (user interface) easily. Basically, it’s birth is for designers and developers to work together efficiently. (We all know that it’s not easy to modify UI in Flex IDE.) This application could generate MXML for designers.

I think Adobe is a bit like Apple now that it’s killing it’s own products! My thought is Catalyst will kill Flex eventually in a good way. Wondering if this kind of revolution will affect Flash. Flash is still good for delicate animation and better user experiences.
