  randomization–>calling up content randomly using a keypress function

  02.16.09 | Permalink | Comment?

  Attach the following code to a jd_button. Remember to save all content–.swfs, .jpgs, etc–to a folder along with the .fla file. Again, we’ll designate a path and add the last line of code when we upload to the interwebs!
  on (keyPress “<Space>”){
  filename = ["background1.jpg", "background2.jpg", "background3.jpg", "background4.jpg", "background5.jpg", "hypertext1.swf"];
  path = “”;
  i = filename.length;
  k = [...]

  randomization–>call up random content using a button

  02.16.09 | Permalink | Comment?

  Attach the following code to a jd_button or regular button. Remember to save all content–.swfs, .jpgs, etc–to a folder along with the .fla file. Again, we’ll designate a path and add the last line of code when we upload to the interwebs!
  on(release){
  filename = ["background1.jpg", "background2.jpg", "background3.jpg", "background4.jpg", "background5.jpg"];

  randomization–automatically load a random image into a frame (as a background or header)

  02.16.09 | Permalink | Comment?

  This code randomly ‘calls up’ an image or other content and loads it into a frame. REMEMBER to include external content to a folder with your .fla file.
  Attach the following actionscript to the first frame of a layer (NOT the actions layer):
  filename = ["background1.jpg", "background2.jpg", "background3.jpg", "background4.jpg", "background5.jpg"];
  path = “”;
  i = filename.length;
  k = Math.floor(Math.random()*i);
  loadMovie(filename[k], [...]

  Import an mp3 or a .wav file into your library. “Export your sound file to Actionscript”–>control click on your sound file, click on “Linkage”, select “Export to Actionscript”, and give your sound file an identifying name (that you’ll remember!). Then:
  Click on your button…Windows>Behaviors>Add (plus sign)>Sound from Library>use the name you typed in as [...]

  unloadMovie code/hack

  02.16.09 | Permalink | Comment?

  To ‘unload’ a movie that you’ve called up using the loadMovie function, you can simply load a ‘blank’ movie clip:
  on(release){
  createEmptyMovieClip (”firstMovie”, 23);
  firstMovie.loadMovie (””);
  firstMovie._x=125;
  firstMovie._y=200;
  }

  loadMovie code

  02.16.09 | Permalink | Comment?

  Attach this code to a jd_btn or regular button to ‘call up’ external content–.swfs, .jpgs, .movs. REMEMBER, your content must exist in a folder along with your .fla file:
  on(release){
  createEmptyMovieClip (”firstMovie”, 20);
  firstMovie.loadMovie (”image1.jpg”);
  firstMovie._x=125;
  firstMovie._y=200;
  }

Cyberfeminism + New Media Practices

we heart cyborgs! or do we? (click on post titles to find out)

about

Art366: Cyberfeminism + New Media Practices is an advanced new media studio/theory course taught by Krista Hoefle, Department of Art at Saint Mary's College. Using contemporary cybertheory and cyberfeminist fiction as a foundation, students will be exploring the tools and techniques of digital media through the lens of cyberfeminism. In the creation of digital artworks we will be exploring the key issues of cyberfeminism, including (but not limited to) cyborg identity/feminism, social networks, and database activism. Additionally, students will be collaboratively working on a wiki dedicated to their ongoing research associated with the themes investigated within the class.
