Oliver Turner: When Houdini met Goldblum

@oliverturner

What is Houdini? Why can’t we declaratively animate linear gradients? …and what does either of these things have to do with Jeff Goldblum?

Get started experimenting with the capabilities of next-generation CSS and see how they can help us bring new user experiences to life on the web..


Richard Westenra: Painting With Data

@richardwestenra

Data-visualisation trades in metaphor and allusion. At its best, it's imaginative storytelling with data and algorithms. But it can be tough to choose from the overwhelming number of different chart types and tools to use as a canvas (including not least, HTML Canvas).

I'll chart a course through the different options, and explain some of the basics of visualising data on the web.


Jo Franchetti: Perfectionism, Impostor Syndrome and Anxiety - Understanding your fears and learning to be kind to yourself
