I would just like to extend a special thank you to friends of Ed for giving me the chance to stop working for a little bit and write down for you some of my thoughts and ideas. New Masters of Flash has collected together some of the finest web artists that I know, whoΓÇÖve given you, I hope, more than a few ΓÇ£Aah.. thatΓÇÖs how you do itΓÇ¥ revelations. I want to round off this book with something a little different. I want to show you the way I think, not only the process but also the mentality of why I build the things that I build. IΓÇÖd like to set you thinking in maybe a different way yourself so that you can turn what youΓÇÖve learnt here into something that youΓÇÖve never done before.
Get ready for a little science, some math, some models of CHAOS, a little bit on nature, fractals and, something thatΓÇÖs important to me, UI. UI can be user interface, user interaction, or more interestingly, you and I ΓÇö the relationship between two things that hardly know that the other exists.
