Animation besides Flash and children software
Can you imagine the combination of kindergarten, computing scientist and animation?
You may think of the programming language LOGO that is about 40 years old then. Yes, the humble turtle that accompanied some of us in 1980's. As time goes by, there is Flash and then Flex from Adobe. But MIT Media Lab keep themselves busy with a new one by working with kindergarten group. And the outcome is Scratch.
Sounds like a children's version of Flash but it is like LOGO that have underlining programming structure and power - and with the help of Internet, it is slowly building up a community of users.
Similar effort also occurs at Carnegie Mellon University with Alice, which focus on 3D animation.
