Bio

As a kid my first major purchase was a computer. It had a 6502 processor and 4k of RAM. (upgradeable to 8k). I had visions of combining video imagery and computer graphics. Many years later I actually found the means to merge graphics with video. While studying graphic design at California College of the Arts I discovered agitprop, which appealed to my subversive nature. This, combined with the focus on technology of the C.C.A. Media Arts department, I found a direction for my art practice I could be passionate about.
For the past 20 years I have been a lead in large screen video installation and engineering with the past 5 years focusing on media servers and real time content development.
