Follow Me - Master's Project | Links Coming Soon
Follow Me is an web application activist campaign tool for promoting site-specific digital performances using mobile technology. Digital Performance is used as a tactic by activists for transforming the social reality of the mediatized city. Activists target specific campaign sites and address issues through online content creation and physical mobile performances in the urban landscape.

Urban Remix
Urban Remix combines location-based cellphone technology, a database, and a web application to allow citizens to record and store media such as sound, images, and ultimately videos in their city and position them in a digital map. I am working on this project as a part of a Network Music course taught by Jason Freeman. In the class our semester long project is continuing the development of several components including a web application, mobile applications for various phones, and a plugin for djs and video djs. My main role is interaction and user interface design for the web application.

PROCESSING the Hip Hop Aesthetics
The following is a reel of coding projects done in Fall 2008 using the Processing language. The theme of my projects was the hip hop aesthetics. The projects include a synthesizer clock, a graffiti art brush, a digital spoken word peice based on the philosophy of 'Women of Color', a mashup of UrbanDicitionary.com, and the creation of artificial intelligence agents based on Atlanta graffiti artist Totem's Mr. Fangs character. The final project I created was a DJ game, not shown in the reel.

The intention of this interactive map was a way to visualize the data collected from the Georgia Tech Liberia project and to share the stories of the people, the project, and the healing of Liberia.
