While on paternity leave I decided to have a look at ActionScript 3.0. It has to be said that I’m uncertain of the long-term feasibility of Flash for various reasons (“oh hi, js+html5″), but I thought it’d be fun nonetheless.

I don’t have Flash Pro, so I downloaded the free Flex SDK which worked ok once I figured out the build process (ie. creating a build.xml). Above is my (on-going) messing around with said SDK. It’s placing black cubes (wow!) on the vertices of a generated icosahedron, (subdivided once for more points). You can rotate the whole thing by moving the mouse away from the center.
