In February of 2021 I created a room on clubhouse called "Elon Musk Xprize team forming now here on clubhouse" and people started popping in who with various skills curious if this might be the call to action they've been looking for.Fast forward to today and and we are now incorporating, bringing team members on contract, executing multiple physical prototypes to prove the different components of the system and preparing our submission to the Xprize competition. Things are moving fast but that's the whole point. Xprize has sprung us into action and Clubhouse has given us the means to find talent that's already paired with a passion for solving the climate crisis.So where are we at? We have a solution. We have many solutions. And whether it's the fight against climate change or the competition to see whose ideas are most effective... in both cases we plan to win. Join us.

NYEOW is the sound of an electric vehicle wizzing by.This startup successfully brought an electric skateboard product direct to consumers assembling in Sunnyvale CA and shipping to customers all over the world.This board was differentiated from others in the market with an ultra light form factor without compromising in board length making both easier to ride, safer to ride and still a breeze for popping onto public transportation making it the ideal last mile solution.Additionally NYEOW built and tested on a cross country trip in the country side of Germany a long range electric skateboard that was designed for camping adventures or all day long food delivery in urban areas. Several concept designs were produced for a hypothetical product roadmap including a solar van with more charging than anything in the market place and electric motorcycles that are lower cost than anything available at its rated range. Motorcycle frames, batteries and motors were sourced from the international supply chain, a test prototype reached 50 mph and foundational regulatory work was completed to chart a path towards a department of transportation compliant product.Ridesharing and self driving technology was assessed and sketch road maps were developed.

Started as a concept I was working on during the distribution of Four Eyed Monsters, then we furthered the research and development with From Here to Awesome and now finally we are bringing an actual service to filmmakers thanks to the recent funding by the filmmaking community to build OpenIndie.com phase 1. Visit openindie.com for details about getting involved in phase 2.

This is a film rights holding company of a film I produced, Directed and Scored called Matter Out Of Place.

Founder and filmmaker at The Co-Create Inc, a micro studio developing, funding and producing a feature length film entitled MOOP. We also created crowd funding tools and software including the worlds first crew, prop, and location donation tool. Users of the site could come on and see items and positions that the film needed to be filled and use custom forms to apply to provide those assets and earn film credit and in some cases even royalties on the film. We budgeted the value of these contributions as "soft money" to calculate what had gone into the film and we shared those numbers transparently in real-time.

I developed the UX for a number of tools including the embeddable full screen video player, collaborative filmmaking interface and collective channel curation tool.Additionally I trained and ran the content team that was in charge of reimagining what media curation could be. We created obvious channels such as Dance, Film, Music, Travel and explored the idea of also making niche channels such as a channel just about Ko Samui work & play life or just indie film. I wire framed a collaborative online media creation tools similar to Hit-Record and guided our developers to make a working rendition for internal testing. The interface allowed the online community to share ideas for projects that could then be turned into online brainstorms and then a producer could take on an idea to start to attach a script and talent and potentially be guided organizationally through the entire process of creating anything from a short video to feature or series of any length. Additionally I designed a curation category creation tool. Think of SubRedits and how communities can emerge around a very niche topic that you can't predetermine. So we were going to let people come up with their own video categories which then were going to be channels that would allow collective curation similar to the upvotes on reddit that let anyone have a say in what is getting featured on the channel every 24 hour cycle. This way the unique perspective of a specialized group of experts in a given area are transferring their sensibilities to those who might be newer to that topic but who want to more fully immerse. We spent a lot of time studying YouTube and I brought my past experience as a YouTuber and in many one on one interactions and meetings with YouTube to the position and we attempted to invent an interface and community that was better than YouTube. I exited just before funding ran out.

Presented students with ways to attract an audience to their films by utlizing social media. We learned about use of Twitter, YouTube, photo sharing & podcasting and creating content that isn't promotional in nature but is actually a tentacle reaching out of the central project. This way each piece of media is valid as stand alone content and doesn't feel like a purchased advertisement. And we brainstormed as a class each students project to come up with all of the additional content that could be created to surround that project and enhance the story telling capability across multiple mediums. Through this training students became versed in the type of thinking that for the rest of their careers can raise the value and profile of their current and future films.

Co-directed the film and online video podcast component with Susan Buice as well as marketed and self distributed the film.
