Just finished the artwork for the new Man Plus! album. Now all that is left is trying to talk Charles into helping me out with design layout…
Here the scans of the collaged monster heads!
U, G, L, Y, You Ain’t Got No Alibi
Monday, February 9th, 2009BoozBot
Friday, December 5th, 2008Recently I finished working on a version 1 of the communication and brain framework for a robotic bartender Jeff Crouse and David Jimison dreamt up and coined BoozBot. The idea was to create a robot that is reminiscent of the forgotten service robots depicted in movies of our past. The end result was a very interesting interactive bartender that captured interesting insight to how people expect robots to behave and interact in our society. Hope you enjoy!
For more information and photos check out the BoozBot pages on Jeff’s and Digital Situation’s websites.
Story of the Underground
Sunday, November 16th, 2008I worked with David Jimison to help create the mood and wall paintings through a huge maze installed at Eyebeam in November 2008. Our idea was to help give people path finding symbols to help navigate themselves through the maze and also to help build a mythology around the labyrinth and the New York City underground.
Here are some images of the murals:
The party was a huge success, showcased another project with David and Jeff Crouse, BoozBot, and garnered praise from a number of media sources including the following:
The Gothamist
WNYC
Free Williamsburg
The murals were based off of a series of illustrations about a story I adapted from the Mayan myth of the Underworld.
Saint Sebastian the Eagle
Sunday, October 5th, 2008
My newest screen print was created for my sister, and follows some of the current ideas bouncing around in my head related to hope, belief, life, death, and the frailty/impermanence surronding them. The screens were exposed at an amazing studio in LIC called Post Expose. Anyways this one is for the family. Respect queens and saints. Alas Saint Sebastian the Eagle.
Hoodies & Goodies
Saturday, August 16th, 2008I created a website for that specializes in streetwear and hip hop clothing, hooking people up with limited edition and hard to find sources. The following is a screen shot of the final site, with design help by Charles Yesuwan.

Dirt Party Kiosk
Wednesday, May 28th, 2008Download Source Code
I recently finished a contribution to a project called Dirt Party with Eyebeam fellow Jeff Crouse and resident David Jimison. For this installation I created a kiosk application that helps people gather dirt on fellow partygoers. The software lets people surf the internet, take screen shots and create “lolcat” style images with humorous and embarrassing subtitles commenting on people at the party.
Dirt Party, which was installed in Manchester UK for Futuresonic, is an installation/performance where gossip, rumors, photos, and other types of information about people at a particular party is dug up and reshaped into some kind of display or performance. For more information about the installation check out Jeff’s website.

Anywhere But Here
Sunday, March 2nd, 2008Download Source Code
I started collaborating with an Eyebeam fellow Jeff Crouse and resident David Jimison to create interactive party technology. My first contribution was for a project called Anywhere But Here, which allowed people at a party to pretend to be at a cooler party where they were being photographed. The project was inspired by the fact that photographers, like the ones from Last Night’s Party, have become the new DJ of a party. Therefore playing into this, people selected a party to pretend to be at while photographers took their photos and then they uploaded them to their social networking sites using a software kiosk I created called the photo blaster.
For more information about the project check out the Digital Situations website, it provides more hilarious photos and a more complete description of the project.
