• A fully immersive 3D Pac-Man video game played inside a 4-sided cube of projector screens.
• Built with the Unity game engine and written in C#.
• Players walk or run in place to move through the game environment.
• A device worn on the hip wirelessly relays the player’s movements to the program which in turn updates the player camera’s rotation and acceleration.

• Built a "fireworks" display in Flash using ActionScript 3.0 which makes use of Flash's drawing API to track user movements and draw colorful imagery on a black background.
• Worked with a group of 4 to build a website which displays information on letterboxing activities obtained by crawling multiple sites and RSS feeds. Responsibilities included determining the layout of source tags and writing PHP scripts to "scrape" the data from these sources and store the information in a MySQL database as well as write our own XML feeds using PHP.
• Created a 3D multi-user video game in Director with a Flash interface. A central hub sends data via a Flash Communication Server to all connected clients to allow for real-time play and chat. Graphics and gameplay are handled in Lingo through Director while communication between the hub and clients is handled in ActionScript through Flash.
• Worked in a group of 6 to study the aspects of different methods of social interaction and, using aspects we determined to work best, developed a prototype in Flash of a workplace program to promote social interaction and increase job satisfaction and performance.
• Completed an independent study to explore the pros and cons of different physical/digital interfaces. Built 3 different devices which achieved the same effect, navigating a digital realm, in very different ways. Programming was done in ActionScript and using the Arduino software.
