The First Computer I Ever Used

November 25th, 2009 by Jason

This beauty was the first computer I ever got to ‘play’ with. It was nothing like an Atari console and nothing like the World Book Encyclopedia. It wasn’t as fun as either at the time but it was special. There was a whole room dedicated to them after all. Boys made 2D animations on them. I designed a space capsule that would fall through a few screens before a parachute would open. Primitive stuff. We saved our work on cassette tapes and would have to demagnetize them when they were full.

Making Science Fun

August 25th, 2005 by Jason

Science, of course, is fun. This project was for an educational company that tutored groups of kids. I designed the family of logos as well as art directed (myself) the printed and interactive media. The image below shows the interface that I designed for multimedia content. It was illustrated in Adobe Illustrator before being brought into Flash.
