MISSNOMMER

For fun, I revisited a previous project and redesigned an identity for the Brooklyn AIDS Task Force. The logo recalls the map of Brooklyn, highlighting Flatbush Avenue and the organization's central location. In addition, enclosed is an annual report for which it was important to correlate the strength and vulnerability within the human body with the strength and the vulnerablity in the local community.

COLOR COMPLEX

Who knew my first game concept was a good one? Entered on a whim and managed to be one of two contestants with no previous game experience who made it to the semis. (The other being Rudhraigh McGrath, a fellow Hyper.) Color Complex, a game based on color theory, is still being improved and may one day become a real game.

MIRROR MIRROR

As I am wont to experiment with abstraction, I used the wave formula to propagate various effects while engaging the webcam as a mirror. As far as interaction is concerned, it probably wasn't the best thing to do; it would be hard for anyone who used the mirror to detect how they were effecting it. But, it was fun. However, for one of my non-abstracted mirrors, I did manage to create an RGB mirror that "prints" CMYK. The further away one moves from the webcam, the mirror's color gamut changes from RGB to CMYK.

generating faces

EYES EARS NOSE MOUTH

The following images were created by using software that selects and randomizes elements of the face. For these images, I wanted to experiment with similar shapes that we weren't accustomed to associating with the face. What resulted were cartoon-style images that liked to multiply.

The aim was to use symmetry to create faces using surrounding elements. The following images were created with the spotlights, hair, clothes and shoes.
