Released by  

For the March 2010 issue of Boards Magazine, Emily Gobeille and I worked with Nexus Productions to develop an interactive cover experience called Rise and Fall. The software uses the amazing opensource Ferns tracking library together and openFrameworks, an opensource creative coding library written in C++.

Here is a little preview of the experience.

    @powderly I got my girlfriend a pen like that once in Chinatown for $2. The Chinese already have surpassed us in developing the technology. It can be done!
