The class recordings from this year's Autodesk University held in London's Tobacco Dock are now available for your viewing pleasure. Here's the recording of the class I presented: If you're interested in going a little deeper into the technical aspects of how we've used Autodesk's Forge platform in Dasher 360, then I recommend watching this […]

I didn't think, on Monday, that I'd be visiting the UK this week. So it came as a surprise that on Tuesday I ended up buying a flight to head across to Birmingham on Wednesday, coming back Friday. You're probably thinking, "ouch, that must have been expensive!" – which was exactly my expectation, looking into […]

I was really excited to hear, over the weekend, that our friends at Hackrod have launched a successful crowd-funding campaign and that there's still time to participate. The campaign is being hosted on MicroVentures, which means investors should receive interest on their investment as well as equity in the project, assuming things work out. This […]

During a 3-day event, this week, Autodesk opened its Advanced Manufacturing Facility (AMF) in Birmingham, the UK's second largest city. Here's a video showing some information about this very cool facility. It's one of 6 technology centres that Autodesk is running at various locations around the world. The others are Pier 9 in San Francisco, […]
