Really Cool Software: Alchemy

Hi. I want to tell you about this awesome software called Alchemy. You might already have heard of it. Here's what they say at their web page:

"Alchemy is an open drawing project aimed at exploring how we can sketch, draw, and create on computers in new ways. Alchemy isn’t software for creating finished artwork, but rather a sketching environment that focuses on the absolute initial stage of the creation process. Experimental in nature, Alchemy lets you brainstorm visually to explore an expanded range of ideas and possibilities in a serendipitous way. "

Andrew Jones is using this program a lot and have affected the development quite a bit. I also know that Barontieri is using it a bit. I've been using this software since version 5 I think. It's good for generating ideas. Look at the forum and the gallery on their web page and you'll see what I mean.
