Being part of the ZX Spectrum generation I have been programming from the age of 10. In the dark days of computing, in other words before the web, I received formal training in very boring things like COBOL. Once digital media arrived, and the demand for web related production took off, I found myself naturally gravitating to online technology. This has resulted in not only many hours of experience developing code but also training and managing people involved in producing code for web projects. My work as a trainer led me to be introduced to the University of Kent and I am currently a member of the University's Digital Media Industrial Panel.
The last few years I have developed Flex web applications, Air touchscreen applications and desktop applications as well as participated in the production of websites based on Flex.
At the moment I am busy tooling up to make the transition into mobile and tablet app development using Adobe Air in 2012. Currently I am working on a database utility for Adobe Air projects that use SQLite called DUAL.
This blog highlights some of the better projects I have been involved in while also provides a platform for me to discuss and distribute code and hopefully impart some of the things have learned along the way. Like all good webbies I am interested in technology, art, design, photography, cinema, philosophy, sociology, politics, music and kung fu.
