Portfolio · Est. since the laserdisc era

Art & technology,
heart & soul.

Four decades at the crossroads of creativity and code — from 80s interactive CD-ROMs to modern AI products, strategy whitepapers, and immersive web experiences. This is a living portfolio of the work, the thinking, and the soul behind it.

About

A practice built on care, curiosity, and forty years of keeping the machine honest.

I’m Bob. I’ve been making things with computers since before we called them personal. I authored multimedia CD-ROMs in the late 80s, shipped early Laserdisc enabled networks in the 90s, built Web collaborative commerce platforms before the 2000s, and then spent the last decade building AI-first products, strategy whitepapers, and generative art that tries to remember it has a soul.

This portfolio is a living archive. Some pieces are current client work, some are old screen captures I pulled off a shelf, some are arguments in the form of flowcharts. The through-line is the same it has always been: make the next warm thing, and make it on time.
