Interactive Design has been a specialty since I incorporated
Miami’s oldest web design studio in 1995 (back when people still
thought Internet was a hair product). This page offers a small
portfolio of some of my favorite interactive projects.
The Blue Monk
My IPPY Award-winning sailing memoir presented in my own web-based <PubML™> eBook format. The book includes over 100 photo footnotes, 200 photos, 350 videos, and 80 interactive maps. None of them clutters the text.
<PubML>™
I designed and developed a complete eBook
publishing system that creates traditional ePub
eBooks as well as enhanced, rich media eBooks
for the web. Include maps, photos, videos, and
photo footnotes. Read in any up-to-date web
browser. <PubML>™ is a plugin for WordPress.
aSiteAboutSomething.com
Flash site for author/songwriter Richard Geller to complement his CD and 5 books. This is the most sophisticated author site on the planet. User sessions average 45 minutes.
Comfort Always Mattress Co.
WordPress site for ComfortAlways mattresses. I will never again have so much fun thinking up new taglines for a product.
I wrote and produced both videos, and also composed and recorded the original score.
(You can view one video right here in this slide.)
ConsciousBreathAdventures.com
WordPress site for Conscious Breath Adventures, a unique tour operator offering opportunities to swim with humpback whales in the wild during a ten-week annual season. CBA is now booking two

Flash site for San Francisco's Open Space Band. Hand Illustration meets 3D graphics and some good music.
PALO!
Miami's Cuban Funk band has switched away from Flash but you'll find a link to the original Flash site on the their new WordPress site. Lots of old Cuban design. Be sure to check out the store.

Flash site dedicated to marquetry and inlay arts. This site featured a unique animated interface built with real wood and shell textures.
The actual site is no more but you can see a copy of the user interface using the "view site" button.
Left Right Learn
This was a prototype module for a course designed to teach Flash Actionscript 3 programming to artists in a tactile, visual, playful environment. Manipulate the images, the code, or the control panel to see the relationships between design and script.
