What an awesome crowd at the Oriental Theatre for Ignite Denver 9 last night! The audience response to my spark was absolutely fantastic, as were my fellow speakers. Really thrilled with all the great feedback I recieved both in person, and via Twitter (sampling of reactions below).

ID9 Twitter Feedback!

Thanks to everyone in attendance and to my fellow presenters! Special thanks to John and the entire Ignite committee for getting this all together!

This will be my final Ignite for the year- as I’ve taken on a boatload of work from now through October, but I do plan on doing this again in 2012 – and urge anyone who might be thinking of doing an Ignite session to DO IT. It is so worth the time investment.

Here be dragons:

The topic of my presentation will be on the DUVAGA Projection System [VPS] and will cover why AIR was chosen as the platform for this application, the development period, and usage.  I hope to include slides, code overview, and demos.  It’ll be a fast and furious 30 minutes!

Anyone interested in an overview of Flex-based AIR interacting with hardware systems in an intelligent way should attend.  Other topics touched on with include Flash Media Server and media distribution systems.

Using AIR to Deliver Media Through Multi-Screen Projection Systems

Flash is a great platform for building multimedia-rich applications and the AIR runtime lends a great deal of extra power to make such media presentation systems truly intelligent. We’ll have a look at how developers at the University of Denver have developed AIR applications that push image/audio/video streams via FMS to classroom projection systems. Platform (and hardware) independent media streaming goodness!
