Videos related to the book:

In hour 4 section of this book you will learn how to create reusable compositions which can be used in other Edge composition through configurable parameters. For source files and details check the book

This sample shown in this video is explained in the current book. In the video you can see there are 3 different Edge compositions the first one is a simple background, the second one is a rotating wheel and the third one is the combination of the two to render the final interactive. For source files refer to the book.

Here is an experiment from the current book, showing how a product selector can be built with Flash like user experience using HTML5, jQuery, CSS3 and of course Adobe Edge Preview 3 runtime. For source code refer to the book.

Jayanta Mahapatra needs no introduction. Any discussion on Indian English Poetry is incomplete without reference to his poetical works. Mahapatra holds the distinction of being the first Indian English poet to have received the Sahitya Akademi Award for the current book “Relationship”. “his international reputation has been compared to that of Wordsworth…”

[Fig: Michel Foucault]

Focault and his contemporary post structuralists might make it a part of his consciousness that ontological studies of literature leads towards a future of studies without a point of convergence, as knowledge necessarily entails power relationship – that the moment one attempts to define in strict tones some aspect of ‘text’, it becomes something else. Exploiting this power relationship of knowledge with the interpreter’s environment (which is essentially socio-political). Said in Orientalism, adopted a different methodological standpoint – the method of “historical generalization”. And after publication of Orientalism the subaltern poststructural critics like Spivak termed it as the “source book” for the related disciplines  to which she belongs. The reason to present this fact is that, I want to direct our attention to one distinguish point of today’s criticism – that the so called anti-historic criticism (like post-structuralism) lead the way to point a fault i.e. “ontological interpretation” is never free from bias and thus it gives way to ‘historical generalization’ or (more specifically) to ‘use of history in critical interpretation of texts’, to which it is totally against. That means, in plain words, through the structuralists and post structuralists, deconstructionist distorted history, by assigning it the title of a ‘system’ with changing ‘center’ (For instance, Derrida thought his articulation of his deconstructionist ideas as an event, and this he showed as a process of change of “center” – by replacing “metaphysics” with the “deconstruction”, at the center of our belief system), they later paved the way (through Focault’s theory) for a new mode of interpretation where history plays an important role – in post colonial, subaltern and Oriental studies (more specifically in the words of Said and Bhaba).

Thus the most interesting point that comes to our notice is the relationship between two modes of idealism – one that supports the use of history and the other that is totally against the use of history in the study of literature are infact are the two sides of the same coin. This point as we observed in case of modern critical theories, tempts us to examine its validity in every phase of critical history itself, and in the following I am attempting to give this temptation , a mode of reality.

In this example you can see how different animation effects have been added to the HTML form elements! Now it’s easy to animate your html form without using Flash/Flex form elements ;D

This effect can be applied to the native elements of HTML and can be rendered on any HTML5 CSS3 supported browser.

I have used Edge Runtime (Preview 3), jQuery, CSS3 and HTML5

Imagine a feedback form that dances if you fill in a good feedback !!!! ;)

This example shows how dynamic values be used to update the animation in Edge Runtime via jQuery. The progress bar’s width is controlled by the dynamic value which is updated on runtime.

This example used Adobe Edge Runtime Preview 3, jQuery, CSS3, HTML5

Everything in the animation is rendered in the real time.

Enjoy!
