How long have you been involved in Multimedia development?
About 5 years, it all started with a position at an ISP when I was 16 years old. I was doing basic webdesign, back when the Internet was first getting off the ground as a standard source of information.

问：你从事多媒体开发有多长时间了？

答：大概５年，在我16岁那一年在一个ISP部门工作时就开始了。当时我从事一些web设计的工作，直到后来互联网才成为标准的信息来源。

How long have you worked with Macromedia Flash?
I would say 6 months. Not that long. 2advanced is only the third full-flash interface I've done thus far.

问：你使用Macromedia Flash有多长时间了？

答：六个月吧，不会比这更长。2advanced.com仅仅是我迄今为止做的第三个全FLASH界面的网站。

How were you introduced to Macromedia Flash and what was your first impression?
I was first introduced to Flash by a friend who was doing a little bit of experimentation with the program, telling me that it was something I could probably do something interesting with. He showed me the Gabocorp website, and I was hooked. I thought, "This is what I want to do". So, I downloaded the trial version and started playing with it. It came across as something that could ultimately begin the revolution of the "ultimate user experience" with the technology we have now.

问：你是怎么接触到Flash的以及你对它的第一印象是什么？

答：我第一次接触到Flash是通过我的一个朋友，当时他要用这软件做一个小实验。他跟我说你可能会这个软件感兴趣，同时还给我看了 Gabo公司的站点，当然，也是用Flash做的。我当时就被深深地吸引了。我想：这就是我所想要做的事情！ 于是，我下载了flash的试用版并且开始研究它。

What is the purpose and/or goal of your site 2advanced.com?
2advanced.com was intended to showcase my work, and share some of the things that are close to my heart in regards to design, and the future of technology in general. I have a lot of visions and concepts in my head that I want to share with people, so I wanted to create a little world where people could get inside my head. I wanted people to know me a little bit better.

问：你制作个站2advanced.com的初衷或者说目的是什么？

答：2advanced.com是一个展示我的个人作品的窗口，其中放的都是一些我深有感触的关于对待设计和未来所应用的技术的一些东西。我脑子里有很多视觉上和概念上的东西想和别人一起分享交流，所以我想到了建立一个场所来让人们理解我的想法，希望人们哪怕就理解我一点点的想法都是好的。

What specific design challenges did you face when developing 2advanced.com?
2advanced needed to have the correct balance between design and functionality. I tried to stay focused on not "over-animating". You'll see this happen to a lot of flash sites, they go to far and become too flashy. There is a discipline level you have to stick to when doing flash sites, so that you don't turn people off. When I come to a site that's too overdone, it doesn't hold my interest, and I tend not to stay long.
