More About Me

I'm passionate about

Immersive visual user experiences and experimental environmental art

An idea worth spreading

Inform, Involve, Interact ... Influence. I deeply believe in media as a source of important influence and change to global social and environmental conciousness. We are at the threshold of implementing technologies that will either destroy civilization or take us to a whole new plateau for civilization. Religious, racial and economic bias must succumb to our higher knowledge and technical prowess or we will have nothing of meaning or value to offer subsequent generations.
