This is really neat. It’s a very very early digital 3D rendered film (family lore is that it’s the first, ever). It looks old because it is. It was created in 1972 by Ed Catmull and Fred Parke with a little help from my dad. I also think that...

A couple of weeks ago, I spent a little time trying to get my finger on the pulse of 3D in Silverlight. As of today (version 2, beta 2) there’s no “official” support. That’s a bummer. Flash has Papervision and now Astro. WPF has...
The WPF book Christopher and I wrote earlier this year is finally off to the printers! It's 480 pages of full color goodness. We were pretty excited to have the opportunity to talk about things like SoC/SRP, DI, MVP, etc within the context of building...
I've released the version 0.9 of Perspective. The main features are : A new XBAP online demo application is provided. You can now build multilingual applications that support culture changing at run time. SignalBinding : a binding class which throws...
The functional level of WPF 3D will probably one day be as rich as 2D : standard controls, styles, templates, and so on. But when ? Waiting the eventual release of FramewokElement3D and Control3D, I built in Perspective 0.4 a system based on UIElement3D...

A new version of the Wpf3D open-source class library, now included in a library called Perspective, is available on Codeplex . Perspective is an experimental .NET 3.5 class library for building WPF 3D models based on basic geometrical objects (polygons...
Une nouvelle version de la bibliothèque de classes open-source Wpf3D, dorénavant intégrée dans une nouvelle bibliothèque nommée Perspective, est disponible sur Codeplex . Perspective est un projet expérimental permettant de construire des modèles 3D basés...
Working with WPF for more than a few months starts to change the way you think about UI. I’m sure you have experienced it yourself. It influences little things; Why should listbox be filled with a list of strings? Couldn’t I put...
Le support du déploiement XBAP dans Firefox, la possibilité d'appeler un service WCF depuis une XBAP et l'intégration de fonctionnalités issues de 3DTools (contrôles de saisie 2D sur des surfaces 3D) sont quelques-unes des nouveautés de WPF dans...
Eric Sink is a great writer. He wrote a wonderful series about the business of software and authored a twenty-two part series describing how to market your software business. Today he starts a twelve part series chronicling...
Here is a little thing that I whipped up on the plane today. It takes a series of photos and positions them randomly in 3D. The camera then automatically moves to them one by one. The camera is always moving so it helps to keep things interesting. This...
Chris Cavanagh has created some excellent 3D physics examples which utilizes the XNA game framework. I decided to take his code and build a truly innovative WPF application. It’s called Poopr and the concept is fairly simple. You click to make the...
