EQ written in processing
Project:
Design an audio visualizer using processing.
Description:
This project uses processing to load an audio track and display visuals based on that audio input using processing’s beat detection, snare detection etc. The program will load any song and produce dynamic visuals for that piece.

Augmented Reality Chess Game – Final Documentation Video
Project:
Battle Chess was created as a final project for Design Studio 3 at Algonquin College/Carleton University. The class was based on finding new ways to interact with our surroundings, and we were required to design and develop a project to reflect our learning. Suggest topics were Augmented Reality, Arduino, xBox Connect, Processing Camera Vision etc.
Description:
Battle Chess is a chess game that uses Augmented Reality markers to create animated ches pieces. Battle chess was created using Goblin XNA, ALVAR and openCV. There were 6 character models, with interchangable textures depending on the team and mode of the character, and each character has an attack and a death animation. The hardware was hand made using bathroom tiles, and we used a camera attched to a baseball cap to make the game more accessable to everyone. This was a team project: I was responsible for modeling (Maya) the Knight, Wizzard, King and Castle, and all of the attack animations. I also completed our demo video (in under 12 hours) Brittany Pinder was the programmer, and Lindsay Codere was responsible for rigging all the characters. Meagan Leflar was responsible for the remaining modeling, and all of the death animations. For more information, please refer to our presentation slideshow posted below.
Outcomes:
A successful game that was fun to play with new and exciting animated characters.
Final Photography assignment
So, most people in my class did the smart thing and used an auto movie maker to make their video. Instead, for “fun” I decided to use after effects (which I have never used before) two days before it was due. It’s 2am now, and I am just finishing up. It’s by far not the best piece of art I’ve ever made, but it was a really really good learning experience. All the swirls and whatnot were hand made (I am too cheap to buy video copilot assets right now) and I took all the pictures. Audio credits at the end of the video.
You can see all the photos on my rather poorly kept picasa site:
3D computer Graphics Assignment 5- bring a Map
This project focused on displacement maps, light maps, and normal and bump maps. We made a high poly model, and then created maps procedurally in Maya and placed them on a really low poly version of the same scene. 2 screen shots from maya, 4 renders from the 2 sceenes from different angles.
Digital painting
For a pair of old friends. They inspire me.

Masquerade mask
I needed this in order to work as a photographer for a local event (Ottawa Goth Syndicate Masquerade ball)
You know, taking the classic “selfie” is easy to do with a phone. It’s a lot harder with a DSLR.
Made from scratch: tinfoil, paper mache, hot glue, some old ribbon and gold lace, and some new paint. I’m trying to talk my birds into lending me some feathers, but no takers yet.
