I first met Tom Horn in November 2009 at the Open Australia Hack Day. He’s always working on great projects and has loads of apps in the iPhone Appstore and Android Market.
What are you making at the moment?…..
MEET We chatted to Susan about Web Development, her line of Jewellery – Owl Posse – which she created using 3D printers, and the monthly meetup she organises called @MelbourneMakers.
You can read more about Susan and what she’s making on her blog: http://owlpos.se/
You can also follow Susan on Twitter: @Suziam
You’re an urban food mapper, a university lecturer and have a little 7 month old boy, what are you making at the moment?…..
There seems to be continuous struggle to find a name for all the things that I do – my partner calls me a social sculptor as through my expertise in consumer behaviour I try (or should try) to manipulate, transform and inspire!
But I call myself a historian as I don’t believe any of the projects that I’m working on are new or original. believe I’m merely repackaging it up and displaying it in new light.
If you have an idea for a tutorial and would like it to be featured in the how-to section of Making Stuff is Fun, please send a tweet to @TammyButow or email tammybutow@gmail.com.
We would love tutorials on loads of different topics…you never know what will come in handy!
Sharing is Caring!
GAMES We also chatted to Tom about how the Voxel Agents went from idea to app store, check out the audio slideshow on Making Stuff is Fun!….
You can read more about it on their website too: http://thevoxelagents.com/
GAMES We met up with Tom Killen at Flinders St Station in Melbourne, he spoke to us about his teams latest game released on the iPhone & iPad , Train Conductor 2. Tom is part of the Voxel Agents, you can read more about Train Conductor 2 on their website: http://www.thevoxelagents.com/
You can download Train Conductor 2 from the App Store.
You have a goal to create 100 games, and you have already made 98!…..
Yep, but I’d like to clarify that the 100 games relates to games made for me, I’ve made 98 for myself, but I’ve also made another 49 for various clients. Most of my personal games were made in the hours after my full-time jobs, a couple of hours a night … for around 6 years.
For the last year I now work for myself at home, so I’ve been able to accelerate my development and up the quality recently.
