I thought I’d give LSX a try – it’s pretty cheap and seems like fun laser software. I had some trouble installing it on Windows 10 – kept getting the message “Code execution cannot proceed because msvcp100.dll was not found”. It seems to be a problem with Visual C++ apps, and I found the solution […]

I’ve been really frustrated that my favourite keyboard shortcut to toggle display mirroring doesn’t work on TouchBar MacBooks so I’ve made a button that can emulate it! Of course since I’ve got this working I’ve discovered there’s a weird work-around to get it working on the TouchBar, but it’s still quite a fun device, and […]
It’s kind of a niche requirement but very important for someone like me who runs presentations with keynote split on two screens to running demos that need to be mirrored. It was always Cmd-F1 on any non-touchbar equipped Mac, but sadly that stopped working on the new Macs, even if you hit the fn key […]

UPDATE : Please note – applications have now closed. My CreativeJS workshop returns to Brighton on the 9th and 10th December, and (inspired by Remy and Julie) I’ll be offering 2 diversity scholarship places. Diversity in tech is something I care deeply about, and although the problem won’t be solved overnight, this small gesture is […]

A handful of super-early-bird tickets for my new workshop on sale for one hour only on Thursday at 11am Still calling it the Internet Of Things? Well that’s OK, but I’m calling it Stuff That Talks To The Interwebs or ST4I from now on, just to be contrary. 🙂 And I’ve put together a brand […]
At last – Online CreativeJS workshops!
My workshops in Brighton are brilliant fun and I love running them (just two tickets left for my next ones!) but the fact is that many of you just can’t physically get here. I’ve long been thinking about how best to put them online and now I have a plan! I’ve teamed up with my […]
After a super fun but busy year on lots of new projects, I am pleased to announce a couple of new Brighton workshops. Firstly, the original CreativeJS workshop, updated for 2014. It’s a really fun way to improve your JavaScript graphics and animation skills and explore HTML5 canvas techniques and tricks. And secondly, back by […]
