welcome to a new arithmetric.

if you have adobe flash player installed, you should be reading this post in a flash-based interface. some directions for use: the green boxes on the left side represent my images, the red boxes at the bottom are my articles, and the blue boxes on the right side are notes. if you'd prefer the html version of the site, please navigate here.

this is the result of some recent work with drupal services, a module that provides remote access to the drupal subsystem, and with amfphp, an open-source php-based implementation of adobe's action message format. amf is the native communication protocol of adobe flash, flex, and air. its specification was opened recently by adobe.

this interface is a flash 9 application written in actionscript 3. in the process of making this site, i developed an as3 class for calling the services system. i'm making it available here. also, i'm providing a simpler demonstration of a flash application retrieving content from drupal: this is the site, and here is the source.

integrating flash and drupal has been a recent project of thirdavedesign. please see internal.
