The History of Parallax, Part 1 0 Comments
As I mentioned in my original post, one of the main reason I introduced this blog was to create a way to generate feedback on (and maintain motivation to complete) the various little projects I start here and there… which will hopefully motivate others to do the same. The first project I’ll discuss is Parallax, the art for which can be found in the header wrap of each page.
Many of my projects have a long history, having been kicked around for years, so I’ll regale their tales over multiple updates.
Back before there were Macs and PCs, there was Texas Instrument. The company is still around today but seems to play a less prominent role in normal techies lives (i.e., mine). TI was even common place in schools once the TI-83 calculators became standard issue. These mechanical marvels allowed way-to-fancy ways to solve mathematical equations. And at home, my friends and I had the TI-99/4A.
