(+Advising venture & enterprise clients worldwide)In the 40+ years I've been paid for professional services, I've participated in a wide range of formats (scroll down (& click expandos as necessary) until you get to my 1975-1981 Princeton, Burroughs, MIT, & NASA bedrock, & then scroll back up here to see the progression).And I sure have done my share of travel! (60+ months Europe/Asia/Australia)But the tech we've pioneered has matured enough that we can finally enjoy our transformation from transportation to communication -- so I can now help you no matter where you're located :) I offer telementoring on a global basis, and I've steamlined everything so you can profit quickly even from buying small chunks of my time.Some clients prefer to use their hours to get a second opinion (often debugging (even debunking) high-cost first opinions); many use me for the "first opinion"​ (at great savings of time and money and formality).Cool: for an easy-to-budget monthly fixed price, you can dynamically split the hours you buy from me in any way you wish: between business focus vs technology focus; realtime interaction vs offline tasks; problem-solving vs opportunity-expansion; deep listening vs concise presentation; team training vs individual mentoring; architecture strategy vs implementation tactics; backend vs frontend; highlevel vs low level; application challenges vs integration challenges; prognostication for energy tech vs information tech; helping you make the lowest-risk highest-value platform bets vs finding the best components and underlying infrastructure to implement those bets.Even cooler: you can re-prioritize my time at a moments notice -- often the insights you gain during one hour of my advising can reshape your overall approach to a problem, + you can send me off to tackle a freshly-revealed top priority starting the next hour. Total fluidity.Best way to start: connect via LinkedIn, with a rough idea of your interests & initial priorities.

Over 50,000 lifetime hours architecting & writing & debugging code. In other words, over the totality of my 53 year coding career (incl 49 year professional career, choosing to work well-over 2000hrs/yr because I love what I do, and thus already having passed the super-special 100,000-work-hour career milestone), I've kept a pretty even balance between the hands-on software development side and the other side that contains everything else you see in this profile.(For more, read onward in this profile back to my digital roots in 1960s & 70s, & follow links for even more nerdy bits.)~~~Fun factoid: my 1997 VRML (Virtual Reality Markup Language) + Java webapp enabled orchestration of fast-paced welding/painting robots at the worlds largest digitally-driven automotive factories -- while helping ensure those robots didn't inadvertently slice any human heads off ;)Fun factoid: code I wrote in 1982 became the #1 best seller in the education category, was the first ever PC educational fast-action videogame, & our 1984 version was one of the first 100 apps ever shipped for the Mac.Fun factoid: I won the 1973 & 1975 "Best Texas Programmer" award.Fun factoid: 1974 was my introduction to LISP & Artificial Intelligence (AI) -- and that foundation highly influenced the paths I took through the next half-century of my digital career. September 1971: wrote my first lines of FORTRAN, punched my first cards, debugged my first compiles, debugged my first program logic, got that first rush from code that works -- then in generation after generation of newer/better/bigger/smaller/faster/cooler tech, loving that "yay-it-worked!" devcycle rush ever since those seedroots half century ago :)

Amazing, but true: I first got hands-on in 1964, when I was 7 years old (keyboard = futuristic glass terminal connected to the just-introduced IBM 360 mainframe, featured at the IBM Pavilion at 1964-65 New York World's Fair which I attended 15 times, due to my father sponsoring/creating/managing the "Graphic Arts of the Future" automated typography/prepress/printing exhibit at the Hall of Education pavilion). Read more here:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1964_New_York_World%27s_Fair"This fair gave many attendees their first interaction with computer equipment. Corporations demonstrated the use of mainframe computers, computer terminals with keyboards and CRT displays, teletype machines, punch cards, and telephone modems in an era when computer equipment was kept in back offices away from the public, decades before the Internet and home computers were at everyone's disposal."~~~In 1968 I was featured on New York's WOR-TV as the kid who couldn't be pried away from the keyboard (keyboard = paper-based teletype machine located at the Princeton Junior Museum, and connected via acoustic coupler modem to a DEC PDP-8 minicomputer at Bell Labs). ~~~By 1971 I was programming in Fortran (keyboard = IBM keypunch machine). ~~~By 1975 I was coding & keying for money, and although I was one of the leaders of the pro-mouse/anti-keyboard/better-UI revolution of the late 70s and early 80s, I do have to admit that barely a week has gone by in 45+ years when I'm not crafting something interesting with my fingers on the keys ;)

I have been paid to present (keynotes, briefings, seminars, trainings) to professionals from Intel, IBM, Sun Microsystems, EDS, CSC, Barclays, One2One, Orange, Reach, Amdocs, Nokia, Comverse, Earth Island Institute, Friends of the Earth, Xerox, SGI, Compaq, Motorola, NASA, and hundreds of other organizations ranging from large environmental, financial, media, telecom, government, and industrial enterprises to entrepreneurs, startups, consultancies, and R&D organizations across 5 continents.I have logged over 60 months of professional activity physically outside the Americas: primarily UK, Israel, Singapore, Australia. (Additional professional activity locations have included Brazil, Thailand, Italy, Netherlands, Mexico, Canada & several others.)My US domestic professional service career has spanned the remainder of 1975-2024, divided among:US West Coast (22 years primarily within 3 hour radius of SF / Silicon Valley; + some LA / Santa Monica)US East Coast (primarily in 5 hour radius of Princeton, NJ -- onsites have been in NJ, NY, PA, DE, MA, VA, MD, DC)US Southwest (primarily El Paso, TX -- where I've been based for 26 of the past 56 years -- helping to pioneer the emergence of SOLAR ENERGY in the Sun City: El Paso is #1 for solar potential in the whole USA!)As a keynoter, I specialize in 6 areas: ecology, technology, creativity, health, energy, entrepreneurship. Gifted with a large dynamic range, able to smoothly transition from big picture (long-term, world-wide) down to details (personal, tangible, or technical) and back, all while keeping audience attention, interest, excitement -- and while providing plenty of "aha" moments along the way!Seminar/Training range: deep tech APIs (hands-on workshops for hardcore geeks), to IT Strategy and Architecture Masterseries, to OpenStandards / OpenSource + SustainableBusiness seminars, to EcoSystemic Leadership for CXOs. See testimonials here + also SolarCIO.com (Background tab >> Testimonials subtab).

My passion is Creative Technology for Healthy Ecology -- which means a core focus of mine is helping to converge and create synergies between information technology and renewable energy .... towards benefit for our community, climate, environment, and most generally Earth's entire ecosystem.Since my days working for NASA on supercomputer atmospheric models (the basis for both climate simulation & weather prediction) in the late '70s ((*keep scrolling & clicking & scrolling down this LinkedIn profile till you get to 1978)), I've been preparing for this massive convergence. My motto for over 30 years has been "Creative Technology for Healthy Ecology"​ -- and I've now got over 200 completed projects under my belt.Along the way, I've mentored and advised Chief Technology Officers and Chief Information Officers (and not just CTOs and CIOs -- but also CFOs, CEOs, and other CXOs).But also along the way, the Climate Disruption and Climate Destabilization that I and my colleagues warned of since the 1970s are giving rise to an unfortunate next phase: Climate Chaos. (I mean that in its full technical sense; contact me for an intro to Chaos Theory and why its relevance is critical at this juncture.) To avoid a further transition into an era of Climate Collapse (and the end of more than you can imagine), we need the best and the brightest (and that means you, me, and our 10 million closest friends here on LinkedIn ;)) focused on rapidly ramping up Climate Care toward eventual Climate Restabilization and Climate Security.Now, as integrative leader, seasoned executive, venture technology licensor, board-level/CXO-class strategic advisor, CXO-mentor, systems architect, and yes, 50-year-veteran-hands-on-coder, I'm committed to giving whatever I've got to empower Climate Care and successful transition to renewability, sustainability, resilience, regeneration, Climate Security -- and that includes amplifying *your* effectiveness if *you* are an ally in those efforts.

From my first paid project in 1975, I have completed over 200 engagements. My professional services client list includes NASA, Xerox, Disney, HP, Apple, Atari, EPA, D&B, CBS, Kodak, Epson, Fujitsu, Valtech, DBR, Elixir, InterBit, CSC, Stereographics, SGI, Cable & Wireless, Unisys, SoftwareAG, Conexant, Symantec, Bankers Trust, SunGard, CapitalOne, Apax Partners, Google, McKesson, The Financial Times.

[[ TerraCycle: Eliminating the idea of waste ]][[ Recycle the unrecyclable -- with TerraCycle ]]See Inc Magazine, July 2006 cover story, declaring TerraCycle to be "The Coolest Little Start-Up in America":www.inc.com/magazine/20060701/coolest-startup.htmlMy most substantial contributions have involved venture financing strategy (which led to *rejecting* a $1M national venture capital contest (#1 out of 700+ competitors) prize with its onerous termsheet, and subsequently raising over $20M on superior terms), and product strategy (which enabled a 3:1 cost reduction of the initial flagship product, and then enabled TerraCycle's "garbage packaged in garbage" market positioning).Wikipedia gives a good overall picture of the history of TerraCycle....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TerraCycle... but its all 3rd-hand, with some important early nuances distorted. (Contact me *before* you sign any venture capital deal, if you are doing an eco-oriented startup and want to learn from the TerraCycle financing lessons and get off on the right foot.)In 2012 alone, using TerraCycle’s collection programs at over 170,000 locations, over 35 million people around the world engaged in diverting more than 100 million pieces of non-recyclable post-­consumer waste from landfills and incinerators.Stats as of May 21, 2014: People Recycling: 41,214,407 Waste Items Recycled: 2,593,068,405 Money for Charity: $6,579,689Stats as of April 23, 2020: People Recycling: 202,831,611 Waste Items Recycled: 7,762,174,415 Money for Charity: $44,806,327http://www.terracycle.com

REGIONAL RENEWABLE ENERGY ADVISORY COUNCIL (RREAC): official body of the government of the City of El Paso, providing expertise and recommendations to El Paso City Council on all matters related to renewable energy opportunity, strategy, economy, policy, and initiatives. El Paso, long known as "The Sun City", has more solar potential than any other major metro in the US. As VP & board member of the El Paso Solar Energy Association a decade and a half ago, I played in role in getting multiple seeds planted -- and now, on RREAC, I'm happy to say that we have worked through many blockages and much friction, and are now accelerating Sun City momentum.My recent contributions have spanned a wide range -- from climate action -- to solar synergies -- to energy storage initiatives -- to sustainable economic development -- to transportation electrification -- to electric utility oversight -- to net metering & feed-in tariff policy -- to Distributed Energy Resource Aggregation (DERA/ADER/FERC2222) -- to transmission questions -- to intergovernmental policy cooperation.My NASA climate/atmospheric simulation & visualization work during 1978-81 -- and then my 4 decades advancing cleantech since then -- are now coming full circle as we put the pieces together for rebuilding Ecosystemic Health.

The El Paso Solar Energy Association for decades was the oldest continuously operating local renewable energy organization in the US.El Paso is #1 in insolation and solar potential of any city in the US.I've served as a board member and as Vice President. Previously I had been invited speaker multiple times.As VP, my activities ranged from IT planning to Regional Economic Development to SmartGrid to event facilitation.

SGI licensed my geospatial ecological simulation/animation/gaming technology and sponsored my R&D (91-93) under their "Simulation & Visualization for the Environment" program.This led to me being brought to Maui (93-94) to head up the ecological simulation & animation R&D lab at a next-generation digital media studio aiming to create an "environmental television channel". Upon seeing some of our team's work, the top network executive for Hawaii's phone company said, "A lot of people talk about the Information Superhighway. But nobody has demonstrated it as resoundingly as you guys have!" But I was already a step ahead of that TV/broadcast model and the "superhighway" metaphor, and by 1994-95 I midwifed over 2 dozen of the world's very first environmental web sites into existence, hosting them on our SGI servers.During this same period, I also produced animations (without using any animation packages, but writing the modeling and rendering software myself) of Buckminster Fuller's architectural applications of synergetic geometry -- the Octet Truss & Geodesic Dome -- on the Silicon Graphics Onyx and Reality Engine, a short segment of which can be seen in the award-winning documentary film "Ecological Design: Inventing the Future."

My involvement with Apple spans:leading the team that developed and shipped one of the first 100 software titles (MasterType) for the Mac in 1984, which became a best seller in its category; leading the teams that created and marketed the first ever tablet product (PenMac, 1984-1989) for the Mac and planting the early seeds for the iPad vision; chairing the 1984 SIGGRAPH event that introduced Macintosh to the international computer graphics community; organizing the February 1984 event (just 3 weeks after the historic Jan 1984 Superbowl commercial that announced Macintosh to the world) that was the very first time that Silicon Valley insiders got hands-on access to Mac and personal access to the 4 key engineers who had created it; being personal friends with 5 of the first 20 employees of Apple; creating Apple ][ products for clients including Disney EPCOT; founding, owning, and managing a software development house (Softweaver) that was one of the very first Apple Certified Developers ever (1982, the first year of certifications); co-founding, majority-owning, and chairing the board of a company (4SITE) that was an Apple VAR (Value-Added Reseller), an Apple marketing service provider paid by Apple to lead their charge into Engineering and Scientific markets for Macintosh graphics products, and systems-integrator of CAD, GIS, and other high-end graphic systems.

Executive management of relations with clients and licensees including Apple, Atari, CBS, Disney, EPSON, Xerox, Kodak, Dun & Bradstreet, and dozens more large and small. Intensive ongoing B2B sales & sales leadership.Managed dozens of high-octane developers. Founded Softweaver as a professional technology services agency business -- backed by deep personal & team expertise in computer graphics & digital media (precursors to modern UX/UI//VR/AR) + extensible languages & machine learning (precursors to modern AI/LLM/NN) -- unique worldwide in 1981.Recruited, hired, motivated, guided, directed and/or managed financial, marketing, and technology professionals to do what had never been done before -- as we created multiple novel business niches in the embryonic software sectors of 4 decades ago.I had ultimate responsibility for business-to-business/B2B sales, revenue generation, financial management, payroll, cost savings, and financial forecasting -- as well as ultimate responsibility for project delivery to clients and ensuring client happiness.Our team provided client-priority-driven deep-technology professional services: produced dozens of custom software applications, ranging from #1 best selling software titles... and an energy-efficiency-simulation-based-videogame for Disney EPCOT ("Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow")... to hardcore device drivers and other below-the-OS system software for hardware manufacturer clients. Shipped one of the first 100 products for the Macintosh ('84). Architected many drivers for input devices, ranging from raw sensors to novel pointing devices to speech recognizers. Created and licensed the first ever tablet product (PenMac, 1984-1989) for the Mac, yielding the core IP that seeded 4SITE, and planting the early seeds for the iPad vision. (I led the strategy and architecture for everything mentioned in this section (except EPCOT, Macintosh and iPad, of course ;) .)

4SITE was a pioneering GIS-sector brand, producing and marketing tools to digitize maps & blueprints and to manage geospatial information for physical architecture, civil engineering, construction, real estate, electric & telco & water utilities, transport, logistics, forestry, oceanography, cartography, environment and infrastructure markets. 4SITE was also an authorized Apple VAR (Value Added Reseller); a vendor to Apple leading their charge into Engineering and Scientific markets for Macintosh graphics products; and a Macintosh-based integrator of CAD, GIS, and other high-end graphic systems. (I architected the technology, market strategy, and business model; operational management was delegated to an executive team).

During my supercomputer work in 1978, I had asked my NASA Ames clients: "how will human beings interact with such a powerful computer - will the weather simulation results be a tall stack of green and white numeric printout?" They funded & I carried out the 1980-81 study "Interactive Computer Graphics: The Human Interface to Dynamic Simulation" - a year long harvest from academia, government, and industry of the state of the art in computing & human factors, input and output technologies, and low level hardware to high level software, culminating in a 700 page report which was perhaps the first comprehensive analysis of the then-embryonic "revolution" now known variously as Computer Graphics, Digital Media, Virtual Reality, Scientific Visualization, World Wide Web, and Cyberspace. I also organized dozens of early-80s Silicon Valley high-energy creative events (infamously known as the "Graphics Gatherings" (notorious for pulling-together the badass Original Geeks & assorted cyborinees & radical rasterfarians who went on to remake the world thru pixel magic (say, like the pixels hitting your retinas right now as your read these words ;-0 )) ... our annual cherubic "Digital Valentines" tradition still continues 44 years later ;-) ).

CSC was the vehicle through which my project was structured with NASA. (Computer Sciences Corporation was a pioneering software-systems-centric organization that provided information technology services and professional services on a worldwide basis. Founded in 1959, by 1963 CSC had become the largest software company in the United States. On April 3, 2017, it merged with the Enterprise Services line of business of HP Enterprise to create DXC Technology.)

Recruited by Prof Jack Dennis, inventor of Data Flow Architecture (DataFlow Architecture is 100% stateless and asynchronous; provably fastest theoretical concurrent supercomputing architecture) to work on a project to translate Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code for numerical windtunnel simulation (for airfoil (wind turbine, aircraft, Space Shuttle) design) into Dennis' experimental DataFlow functional-programming language.The 5th floor at MIT LCS (pre-rename-to-CSAIL) was the "supercomputing floor" and my home base. Bonus was that I also got to hang out on the top floor, which was the world famous MIT AI Lab, which has a legit claim to being the birthplace of AI, or at least co-birthplace along w Stanford AI Lab. My buddy Dan Weinreb (who introduced me to LISP in 1974) was on the team creating the LISP Machine. Sussman, Steele, Stallman were all there, along with the other Olympian gods & goddesses (well, ok, mainly gods, since gender equality was yet to come to the community (not till we achieved 50-50 at the Graphics Gatherings on the left coast in the following decade)). My crashpad for a chunk of that MIT season was at a (later legendary) Boston red-light-district 5th floor industrial loft with folks from aforementioned AI Lab, plus cool Logo Lab folks, including Danny Hillis (inventor of the Connection Machine, founder of Thinking Machines Corporation, cofounder of Terrapin Inc, cofounder of The Long Now Foundation, and the guy who recounts the story of how I almost killed both of us while driving him to the airport) and Margaret Minsky (pioneer of the fields of Haptics and Digital Wearables and Interactive AI; daughter of "The Father of Artificial Intelligence" (& co-founder of the MIT AI Lab) Marvin Minsky) and a whole tribe of amazing "connectionist" neural networkers who played diverse exotic roles in reshaping my own neural wetware when I was a wet-between-the-ears 22 year old.

Recruited (after having only 1 year at Princeton and having founded a custom software consultancy allied with Burroughs' Field Sales) to be one of the initial seed 3 team members tasked with inventing a parallel architecture to yield gigaflop throughput, to be the world's fastest supercomputer (20 times faster than the Cray), for NASA Ames Research Center.By the time I returned to Princeton (and kept working on the project), I had contributed a topology breakthrough for reducing interprocessor bottlenecks, designed the parallel programming language, and used it to rewrite the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies 9-Level Atmospheric Model (a "grand challenge" benchmark, embodying the Navier Stokes equations that are the heart of Computational Fluid Dynamics, and granddaddy of today's foremost climate models).

Between Feb 1977 (founding date of my first company) and Feb 1978, I completed 10 programming projects in alliance with a Burroughs district sales office (which doubled its low-end minicomputer sales due to my availability as a custom development resource). All projects were in assembly language (very low level, 1:1 correspondence with machine language). Industries covered were medical, construction supply, land title insurance, manufacturing, and disposal/recycling.

Between Feb 1977 (founding date of my first company, SoftWareHouse) and Feb 1978 (date when NASA via Burroughs made me an offer I could *not* refuse), my independent consulting company completed 10 programming projects in alliance with a Burroughs district sales office.During these years, Burroughs was the 2nd largest computer company in the world; IBM was the only one larger. Burroughs had field sales offices worldwide.I teamed with a field sales office business-to-business/B2B sales force to help close minicomputer sales & custom software sales in the west Texas and southern New Mexico territory.I custom developed 100% of the code we delivered as custom software to minicomputer customers.This Burroughs district sales office *doubled* its minicomputer sales due to my availability as a custom development resource.All projects were in assembly language (very hard core, low level, 1:1 correspondence with machine language). Industries covered were medical, construction supply, land title insurance, manufacturing, and disposal/recycling.During this early experience running my own independent consulting business, I learned enduring basic business skills: * Positive outlook, self-motivation, self-management, results-driven attitude, and ability to routinely set and exceed personal goals.* Communication, interpersonal, relationship-building and account-management skills -- important for client interaction in general -- but absolutely essential when developing software on a custom basis, tuned to the unique desires of clients. This required *very* good active listening skills and *very very* good agile adaptation skills ... the 180 degree opposite of the Bill Gates "software-in-a-box" "one-size-fits-all" mindset.

Hired to be a programmer for the Princeton University Astrophysics Department, as student job while I was a freshman. But most of the work was manual image analysis, finding candidate galaxies (vs stars) by studying photographic plates from observatories.

An electrical engineer at El Paso Electric had a side venture to modularize and semi-automate (and thus cost-reduce) the design of electric power substations to enable faster rural electrification for Mexico. My FORTRAN code provided a hierarchical decomposition of the substation elements (Exploded Bill of Materials) and thus supported accelerated design and cost estimation for substations. This project opened my eyes to early opportunities for applying software to improve the grid, and was foundational in my career-long involvement in synergizing Renewable Energy and Information Technology.This was my very first paid software development project.

(LinkedIn's UI forces chrono ordering, & I want this down at the bottom...) This applies to 1975 to 2024: LinkedIn is great in many ways, but the structure doesn't support those of us who have long and rich histories... or who are passionate lifelong learners, intentionally working and succeeding at becoming "competent generalists"... or even dynamic professionals who multiplex diverse involvements in diverse organizations, sometimes simultaneously, sometimes sequentially. Yes I've been enterprise architect, CXO and international seminar guru... but my underlying passion for hands-on technology creation is still running strong (if my fingers are a keyboard, they're happiest crafting web media & JavaEE code), and my overarching passion for healthy ecology manifests in ways ranging from animation to activism to invention to serving on non-profit and for-profit boards of directors and advisors. I may refuse to be put in a box, but I do promise to transform problems into opportunities, and opportunities into results.Result: over 200 remunerative engagements completed.(Please see my list of examples of how I crack traditional silos in the interest of ecosystemic solutions; then connect up to engage further)
