If you've wondered over to this page, you might be curious about some of my creative endeavors. Please don't take any of them too seriously, however if you have an idea, wish to collaborate or are interested in commissioning a piece, feel free to contact me. I also welcome any criticism you may have of any of my work, so please don't be shy to tell me what you think. I've omitted all my client work since I'd rather not polute this page with corporate insignia.

map.ping
A collaboration with Henk Boom that relies on Google's blog search engine to visualize top rated keywords that are associated from one post to another. Relies on canvas (sorry IE users).

ta.xono.me
An experiment in creating word taxonomies using a very simple relational database model. The goal is to eventually create a tool that can annotate and tag text. Then, tags can be tagged with other tags in order to build complex associations between citations.

paleverous
Unfortunately, this piece relies on the WikiScanner API which is no longer available, however the gallery works. Anonymous posts are geo-targetted and national animals are played in the background. Great at parties.

My portfolio. Tagged.

atstream
Another collaboration with Henk Boom. This time we played with the Twitter API and decided it needed a starfield to visualize it.
