A Guided Tour Based On Proximity
The Exhilent offices are hosting amazing art works from two Dallas-based artists for Spring 2015. Ryder Richards and Sue Anne Rische, both, have had acclaimed shows throughout the world. They have graciously allowed us to present 9 of their pieces within our offices.
This app uses beacon technology that allows the app to communicate with the art works themselves. As you tour the gallery, the app pops up information about the specific art piece you are standing near.

Luna Grins Dance Man
Big fan of the DRiP Haus collections and was excited to get one of these Luna Grins. My point of contention though is how they made it easy to snag the GLB from the marketplace. I believe content owners should be the only people who have access to these kinds of assets. Enter Darkblock. One of these days more folks will get it.
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.
Commander Mark Rules
Famous designer Frank Chimero tweeted a few months ago that he was a fan of Commander Mark growing up. I responded to let him know that Commander Mark still lives(yes!) and his library of drawing videos lives on YouTube and he even streams on Twitch. Commander Mark rules.
James Harden Prototype
One of the real benefits of high-end 3D printing is the ability to take an idea and get to an initial prototype that you can feel in your hands in a short amount of time. For this project, our goal was to create a collectible James Harden figure.
AI Consistent Images Examples
More experiments in consistent image workflows and autogenerating text with images. My goal with this was to create a visual style (something anime looking) with a consistent main character in a variety of situations. And tie it all together with a personalized birthday message.
