IMA MMFX Kiosk 

This project uses Actionscript 3.0, Flash CS3, and Photoshop CS3. The kiosk is installed at the Indianapolis Museum of Art in the Manufacturing Material Effects exhibit. I used Papervision 3D to create the 3D animation and objects in 3D space. Tweener was used for the animation. The navigation is touch-sensetive. Each group of Architects is added as easily as adding a single line into an array containing all of the projects.

Interactive Television Prototype 


This project was done as part of an intensive course on interactive television at Ball State. While another team of computer scientists were building a televised version, I was responsible for building the web version. We collaborated as much as possible, sharing RSS feeds and content managements systems that we built using PHP. A group of News designers provided most of the graphics.
