Like many, I envision a future where the digital and physical worlds seamlessly combine to create a compelling and powerful user experience. While visualizing this potential is now a mainstay of contemporary film and television, the real challenge lies not in generating rich graphics but in deftly managing the broad spectrum of potential user input. This challenge is at the heart of 3D user interface research and requires a healthy skepticism that 3D and gesture-based user interfaces are inherently superior to traditional interfaces.With a combined 20 years experience in commercial implementation, artistic collaboration and academic research on non-traditional user interfaces, I bring an exceptionally broad set of skills to the problem of moving towards an augmented reality future without losing sight of the fundamental user experience along the way. Among those skills, I count an ability to work in a visual medium both through communication of ideas and design critique, an ability to communicate with constituents from end user to CEO, and extensive practical experience designing, prototyping and developing virtual and augmented reality software.Specialties: 3D User Interfaces, Non-traditional Interface UX, Computer Graphics, Computer Vision
