This is a great example of ActionScript usage. The script simulates the falling of a user-controlled number of leaves. What’s really cool about it is the level of interaction with the user.
The user can influence the leaves movement by blowing into the microphone and creating wind which modifies the falling trajectory according to the blowing intensity. Also users can control the depth of field making it wider, tighter, closer or further.

Very cool - not only do the leaves look very real, but the fact that the user can actaully interact and affect it is awesome!

That’s quite a good tool there. I’d find it as interesting effect to create some illustrations with. Think I’ll find out more about the ActionScript usage, as I don’t know much about it!

The responsiveness to the microphone interaction is amazing, would love to see the source!

Damn, now this is some really cool stuff!
I’m trying to work myself into pv3d since a few weeks now and this is definitely motivating to go on!
I’d be really pleased to have a glance onto the source!
Is there any comparable tutorial or open sourcecode in the web?
Best regards!
