- Producer, Director and Creator with Kelly Lafferty -
Each year we pick a new movie to remake with our friends playing the lead roles.
Using a simple dv camera and some creative special effects the movies are shot
and edited in about a weeks time. The project comments on the proliferation of
media devices that allow us to tell stories on a shoe string budget. What do
big budget movies look like when shot form the hip. Available to view upon request.

Collaboration
We built an interactive video installation that involved two stationary
bikes. Depending on which bike was peddled faster a video display would
switch from a bike ride through NYC to a bike ride in Beijing, music
reflecting each city would also play. When the bikes are not peddled
the display shows a cubed combo of both.
Save Boston Game (2007)
-Creator- View Game
This little game was built while I was at Visual Goodness in response
to the ridiculous handling of the Boston Mooninite scare of 2007.
