This little gem was a favorite online, having been featured on CollegeHumor.com,
and has received more than 16,000 visits since it went live. You know those little yellow faces (a.k.a. emoticons)
in AOL Instant Messenger? Yea, well I was bored one weekend and took pictures
of myself in all those faces, so they could be used in AIM. My roommate thought I was crazy, but hey, maybe he was
right. Go to "The AIM Project" »
On the same weekend that I created the AIM Project, I put together a 10 Step guide
to being cool. Now, for those who aren't aware, this is supposed to be satire. Biting, biting satire! Go

Gravitation
When I was working at Eagle Entertainment I was trying to create
special mouse effects in Director/Shockwave movies, such that objects would trail behind the mouse as the mouse
moved. While playing around with some code, I tried using gravitational physics. The code was so cool I implemented
it as a planetary system and what looks like a molecule (even though it doesn't work like one). I've tested the
planetary system for over 36 hours and the system remained stable and in tact. I'm glad that I actually could use
those equations after all :)

Cannon Barrage was completed as a midterm project for Interactive Digital Media, a course I took while attending
my freshman year at RIT. The project was to complete a game, complete with user
interface, help facilities, and complete gameplay. The Shockwave program uses basic physics equations to compute
the trajectory of the cannon ball, and various algorithms to control the mouse movement of the cannon barrel.
As a final project for my Interactive Digital Media course at RIT, we had to design and implement a large project
with an introduction movie, and multiple levels of content. Curious about the Public Telephone System, I decided
to do a research project on the American telecommunications industry and AT&T, which in many important ways
forged the path that led to today's national infrastructure. Go

The Hamming Code is an error detection and correction encoding scheme used on networks to account for single bit
transmission errors. This Shockwave program successfully reverse-engineers the encoding scheme.
This nifty little app sprung out of a lab I did in my Interactive Digital Media course while at RIT.
I worked on the interface a bit to make it look better, and made some UI adjustments, and it turns out that it is
a great little tool when you need to pick a quick color scheme for a Web page (and yes that's a shameless plug to
use this app as often as you want ;)
