alice - storytelling alice


alice is a free educational programming software from cmu. it teaches computer programming in a 3d world that you build. from the website: "Alice is an innovative 3D programming environment that makes it easy to create an animation for telling a story, playing an interactive game, or a video to share on the web. Alice is a freely available teaching tool designed to be a student's first exposure to object-oriented programming."

i've been messing around with storytelling alice, which seemed like an easier, more story-based program. its intuitive format has introduced me to a world of combining story-telling with computer programming and would suggest it to anyone who's ever been interested in computer animation.

i had a class with randy pausch. the thing i learned from him (besides stuff about alice, v.r. and teamwork) was that while he cared more about results than his relationships with people, i care more about my relationships than results... but for the moments when i care about results, i'll think of randy
