Bio
I'm a programmer with a background and interest in the arts (both visual and music), currently studying web, app and game development. I have a passion for learning and am interested in design, fashion history, art history, and animals. I love creating interactive visual diagrams. I would also love to work with anyone interested in herpetology/biology/ecology that is looking to pick up technological tools to help with visualizations/maps/etc.Project ideas
An interactive timeline of modern art
How can we visualize data that is messy and intertwined? The modern art era--a period that spanned approximately one century-- is full of brilliant diverging and similar ideas. This project deals with how to create an interactive visualization that allows viewers to understand the general timeline as well as dig deeper to see trends in art styles and show how art periods and artists inspire one another.
Digital Closet App
Create an app to sort the clothes in your closet. The function of the app will be to take photos of each individual piece and the app will classify it into tops/bottoms/etc. You can star you favorite pieces, sort by new tags like season and color, etc. This app will teach you how to create a database to log clothes, an API for clothing recognition, use tags to sort clothes, and learn an app development language.
