Easy Sketch Wallpaper Generator

I've probably built wallpapers for desktop and mobile by hand for years and finally decided to automate it somewhat. Just use this Sketch file (who still uses Sketch right?), place your wallpaper image on the Symbol layer and it will export nicely sized desktop and mobile wallpaper with ease. This is my most self serving post ever.

Herman's Great Idea

Herman had the idea to create Hall of Fame-type busts of ex-athletes that would be used at university alumni facilities to help recruit new players to their school. You see, everyone wants to be immortalized but the fact is those Hall of Fame busts in Canton are very very expensive and quite exclusive.

Anne Rice Signature

My buddy Fred reminded me of the time that I waited to see Anne Rice at Book People here in Austin many years ago. He wanted a signed copy of her latest book and I waited in line for hours for a 10 second hello and signature.

Houston Rockets Prototype

Designed and built the model for Houston Rockets desk paperweight orb thing. It was a great idea that I was lucky enough to create. The model was built to be 3D printed in full color and with transparent resin on a Stratasys J750. Material print costs would make this resin orb cost around $800. Not cost effective but the idea that a high end beautiful one-off can be done in less than a day was spectacular.

LawBot 3D Model

I really liked the cartoon logo for iDisclose and their LawBot identity. Having the privilege to work with them years ago on a website and an explainer video, it was fun to work on taking their 2D character and bringing it into 3D.

SXSW Interactive Schedules

This blog is turning into a "remember when" article generator. I have done a lot of interesting projects and promise I continue to do them now. Here is an old one I did for Hugh Forrest at SXSW back in 2004. The problem to solve was realtime session information on a big screen TV for attendees. Now it is common place, but in 2004, it was pretty remarkable.
