Huntington Reproductive Center
Women undergoing infertility treatment at this medical clinic need
to maintain a sometimes complicated and detailed medical regimen.
Currently, the nursing staff fills out detailed calendars by hand.
I am creating dynamic, interactive patient instruction calendars
for the practice to make this process simpler, faster and more consistent.
Computers never get bored or tired, so they're good at filling out
forms. In IT-talk this project is an enhanced front end for a patient
records database. I will also create a stand-alone implementation.Huntington
Reproductive Center.
Institute for Creative Technologies
This research institute is run by USC and funded by the US Army.
Its mission is to help create the next generation of interactive
training environments and explore uses and implementations of digital
media for Army personnel. I created Macromedia Director presentation

presentation I got to work with some of the most thoughtful, talented
and idealistic people I've ever encountered. Institute

bringing journalistic excellence to high school students. They provide
an interactive newsroom and multimedia "wire" where students

James Dean
is not a dentist, although you can experience
his root canal at one of the funniest websites I've seen. He is known to
be an actor, but having conquered the world of television acting he has gone
on to become a highly innovative artist, designer and photographer. He has created
websites and graphics for many entertainment clients. James

Andrew Glassner. Andrew is a writer and filmmaker, and a computer scientist to boot. He is probably the most articulate person I've ever heard on the subject of the relationship of narrative and dramatic structure to game-play and interactive media. Andrew Glassner.
Mark Gray is in the process of completing "When Celebrities Attack", one of the funniest short animated films I've ever seen. He's also a cinematographer and screenwriter with the independent feature 'Pathos Bill' in development. Mark Gray.

NPR Rendering. The first time I encountered Non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) at Siggraph 1999 I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I thought 3D computer graphics were destined to be pixels smeared across polygons forever, and here was hard evidence that it didn't have to be so. I still think its the most interesting thing going in computer graphics. Craig Reynolds has put together a great reference page for NPR resources. NPR and 'Toon Rendering Resources.
Soda Play. I'm fascinated with artificial life and genetic algorithms. This company makes software to interactively create playful geometric "creatures". Incredibly fun and beautifully put together. Soda Play.
