Second in a series of cases made for the Blackberry, Poof is a case made for the utter extravagance of winter glamor. Poof has a real fur body and soft leather cap. She fits in no pockets and enjoys being the center of attention and conversation.
I have the unfortunate situation of having both a Blackberry (work) and an iPhone (personal). Overwhelmed with the oppressiveness of the situation and the reality that many people design gorgeous cases for the iPhone, I set out to create a set of Blackberry cases.

An indoor skateboard, purpleD is soft leather hand stretched around a traditional shortboard. It’s perfect for riding around the inside of your house with bare feet.

I collected text and hand-drawn responses on a range of questions related to identity from people around the world via Amazon Mechanical Turk. Their answers are presented on a large board that asks the visitor to swipe his or her credit … Identity
Swipe your credit card and get rewarded with a satisfying bell and glowing blue light. This is a prototype I built to test a concept I’m working on that challenges people notions of personal information. The card swipe strikes a bell that is reminiscent of manual cash registers. This was unplanned but an interesting plus … Visceral Credit Card Reader
Data data everywhere! We’re often presented with visualizations that highlight data that the graph author wants us to see. In this project, I explore data presentation through the construction of a user-driven controller. Rotate the controller in space and copper BBs connect various circuits. The user and randomness vie for control. Quasi-random, user-driven, data presentation … BB Controller
