For professional illustrators interested in self-publishing interactive picture books for iPad.
The Picklet Platform is an end-to-end solution for creating and selling interactive books for iPad and iPhone/iPod touch.
This session is pitched at writer/illustrators who want to self-publish digitally but don’t want to make their own app.
Two free presentations (same content Monday and Tuesday, limited seating) demonstrating the Picklet Platform; from creating picklets to content discovery in the Picklets app.
Monday Evening
- Wheeler Centre Boardroom
- 5:30-7:00pm October 3, 2011
Tuesday Evening
- Wheeler Centre Boardroom
- 5:30-7:00pm October 4, 2011
The boardroom at the Wheeler Centre seats 12 comfortably. You’ll find the Wheeler Centre at 176 Little Lonsdale St, Melbourne. (It’s in the State Library building, but the entrance is round the side.)
This is a free information session, after which you’ll be eligible to attend a follow-up workshop ‘Making Picklets’ where you’ll learn the basics of the picklet creation workflow.

Sometimes there’s a man
This week being my last in Berlin (for now) I have some technical goals I’m determined to hit.
At the end of this week I’ll send out the first beta of the Picklets app to any testers who’ve registered their device here;

So if you have an iPad (or iPhone, or iPod touch) and want to see what I’ve been doing these last 12 months, sign up and you’ll soon know.
I’ll be giving a demonstration of the picklet project in Hamburg later in August and I will have my iPad with a functional Picklets app, picklet store and content to demonstrate. This is what I’ve been working towards for the last two months.
For posterity here’s some technical detail about specifically what I’ll be working on this week. These are things that I’ve started but don’t have working properly yet;
That’s still quite a list but getting the bandits picklet readable is the goal.
The Dude abides. I take comfort in that.
