P.S. #twex analysis is still pending (my apologies!!! - sum dum projkts @ wrk I need to fin firs.) but results should be out next month! stay tuned :)
for those interested, the entry asked for 140 chars of code that, if embedded in some already given "me code" (from @gskinner) should do something "cool". Here is the source code of my entry (turn strict mode off in Publish setting>action script 3 setting):
// @gskinner's me code 1
g=graphics;
mt=g.moveTo;
lt=g.lineTo;
ls=g.lineStyle;
m=Math;
r=m.random;
s=m.sin;
i=0;
o={};
function f(e) {
// 140 chars of my code
if (i<1)>
j=o.x;
k=o.y;
z=j=k=200;
mt(j,k);
g.beginFill(0,.5);
}
i+=.05;
p=m.PI/2-i;
c=m.pow;
j+=i*c(s(2*p),3);
k+=i*c(s(3*p),3);
ls(k*.01,10,1);
lt(j,k);
}
// @gskinner's me code 2
addEventListener("enterFrame",f);
cheers!
