This looks a lot like Gordon (http://github.com/tobeytailor/gordon) — a JS implementation of Flash. In which case, the point is that you don’t need a service to convert your files — your SWF files would work as-is.
Ideally — provided JS performance catches up — you simply re-tool your templates to use the JS runtime (rather than embed tags) to run your SWF file.
In fact, looking at the source of http://smokescreen.us/demos/lyrisdemo.html it’s conceivable that you could use Flash if available, but fallback to Smokescreen/Gordon otherwise (likely testing for HTML5 support first). That link is also a great example of how easy it would be for an ad agency to continue to use their existing resources for Flashless, HTML5-ready devices.
Is there any relation between the Smokescreen and Gordon projects? I haven’t heard of the latter in a while.
