(From Owen at the conference...) Aha! I see. The most important part is using Broadcast and Wait so that things cascade properly. Oh I do love elegance. Nicely done.
Hey, thanks for the comment on Son of String Art. That's cool that your students are playing with my projects...that makes me feel good! Which ones do they find most interesting? I'm kind of suffering from "writers block" at the moment and I could use some ideas. Maybe if I knew what they find interesting it would give me some direction on what to work on next.
Very cool project! I know where you're coming from, being an old Fortran programmer myself. These new toys are a bit confusing...but they sure are fun!
Download this project!
Download the 6 sprites and 11 scripts of "TurtleTree" and open it in Scratch
Project Notes
I've wanted to write the purely recursive turtle tree since I first played with Scratch six months ago. But I am an old sequential, single process programmer and it took me a while to realize that I had to think coorperatively.
Little helpers can be real individuals in a concurrent world! Very cool.
It may not look all that fancy but I'm happy!

Glad you liked it.... I'm looking for more of these kinds of "old ideas." Keep in touch!
