Multimedia Projects


  • Basics of Computer Science, Animated (2005-6)
    While at UT Department of Computer Science. I put together a team to do a small set of multimedia modules on the basics of computer science. Sarah Lowe, a professor at the UT School of Design was the Art director. Jeff Romaniuk did most of the artwork and programming on this project.
  • Weapons of Mass Destruction: A Primer (2003-4)
    This is a early prototype of an interactive CD which I produced originally for the National Forensic Academy. The final product was something totally different, but I believe this existential version was much better even though it is a little bleak. Mickey Rievley did the art and content design. Sarah Lowe from the UT School of Art did the navigation design. I wrote the script. It was built using Flash MX 2000.
  • Educational Multimedia CDs (2001-3)
    While at LightCone Interactive, a company within the UT Department of Physics, I worked on numerous educational projects on topics such as astronomy, biology, microbiology, physics and genetics. They were multimedia CDs sold with textbooks. Our clients included Prentice-Hall and Brooks Cole. A good sample of the work is on the LightCone web site.
  • The Letters of Glenn Browne Jr. Digital Library, 1979-1985 (2007)
    • This is a work in-progress of a small scaleDigital Library. As free time permits, I've been doing this to learn more about the inner workings of digital libraries. Moreover I'm working towards a personal goal of preserving some of my father's letters.
     
  • Who Am I: The Computer Science Quiz Game ( 2007)
    • This is an "animated" PowerPoint presentation that was developed as the entertainment segment of the UT Department of Computer Science's Alumni Picnic and Coffee Mug Giveaway. It's mostly a fun thing, but the quiz does illustrate the eclectic genius of those who have been pioneers in the discipline. At its inaugural presentation, the quiz's other co-creator Dr. Michael W. Berry was the Master of Ceremonies.
  • Internet Pictures Corporation (1999-2001)
    IPIX was an Internet company that had patents on 360 degree internet photography. I worked in the product marketing department, but I did find the wacky things you could do with technology interesting (anything besides realty and resort ads). Someday I hope to have some goofy samples such as Powerline.ipx, Laundrymat.ipx, and Soccertable.ipx available for viewing.
  • Department of Computer Science Databases and Tools ( 2005-2007)
    • This these are not multimedia projects, per se, but they are some tools I've helped develop while at the Department. I've been lucky to be assigned some great students to work with: Kannan Balajee (recruiting database), Bobby Maisnam (faculty database), Matthew Aldridge (RSIM), and Kevin Rankin (Mailminer).
