| Browsercast
| The goal of this project is to implement an HTML5+Javascript replacement for screencasting and integrate it with a composition tool. A prototype of the playback tool [https://github.com/tarmstrong/bcast-experiments is on GitHub] (see [http://third-bit.com/bcast/ this page for a demo and explanation] of why we want such a thing), and some useful experiments with composition tools have also been built (see [http://labs.toolness.com/temp/thimble-dzslides-spike/?notypekit=1 this page] for an example). The end result of this project will allow non-specialists to author an HTML5+Javascript slideshow using something like Thimble, add a voiceover, and create something that plays back in the browser (so that search engines and accessibility aids can "see" the content) with a fraction of the data download required by video.
| Javascript, HTML, CSS; experience with Popcorn and Thimble are useful but not essential.
