I don't know much about PixelBender effects, but this seems like something that could be accomplished. I am not even sure what keywords to use on Google to search for such an example. So, if you know of an example of how that effect might be accomplished in Flex using PixelBender (or without using PixelBender) I would really like to see it.

PixelBender Filter required... I think?
If you read my blog you know that I don't currently have a Mac. This is true, however I have used enough of them to really fall in love with some of the UI details. One of them is the way in which when you minimize a window it kind of warps as it shrinks into the dock.

I think it`s called Genie effect.
Here is a good Pixel Bender example:

@Benz - Thanks - Just knowing it is called the Genie effect helps. One of the comments on that blog directed me to http://www.dasprinzip.com/prinzipiell/2009/01/30/warp-shader-pixel-bender/ which seems like it is on the right track. I just don't quite get how to translate that into exactly what I am looking for.
@Ian - Theres something about that example that makes me fell it isn't the best way to do it.
Check out Adobe's BlackbookSafe
It does the exact effect when you minimize the window.
