PhotoTag is a community photography project. A series of disposable cameras are labeled and released into the wild with instructions for unwary PhotoTaggers to take one picture and pass the camera on. PhotoTag is a non-profit for-fun joint venture by me and Susan Brackney.
The Vivagraph project is a contextual media internet application which I have conceived and developed as my Masters thesis. Vivagraphs are multi-modal media recordings which communicate a sense of their own context via embedded, linked or otherwise associated context data when made available over the Internet as a form of hypermedia. Vivagraphs fuse elements of personal media, multimedia, contextual media and Internet hypermedia to communicate personal experience and convey personal documentary.

The Polara Projects was developed as a multimedia learning environment, the goal of which was to teach gradeschool level astronomy to children and supplement astronomy curriculum with interactive activities. This was done within the context of a compelling storyline and playful interaction with the main character, an animated agent using a simple emotion model to guide its interaction with users. We partnered in a grant with two Indiana grade schools, Bloomington's Harmony School and Indianapolis' Longfellow Elementary to provide a web forum for discussion and interaction.
P(i)mp stands for Personal (i) Media Portal. The (i) stands for practically anything you can think of that might begin with an "i" like... interactive, internet, indexed, idiosyncratic, independent, idiotic, etc. This site you are looking at is running p(i)mp. This project allows users to publicly and selectively distribute the personal media which serves as a record of their lives and those of their friends and family. Each p(i)mp operates as a personal homepage, weblog, photoalbum and portfolio and uses PHP, HTML & CMIL( XML), and the mySQL database.
