Jack Morton Worldwide

I designed the UI and built this kiosk for Hughes, installed at a trade show in Switzerland. This was a typical component of a number of installations the Jack Morton team created for major corporate clients, circa 2000.

I was the interactive and technology lead for a number of events produced by Jack Morton Worldwide.

In November 2000, I served as lead technologist for the production of a major investment bank's annual technology conference. Tech 2000 consisted of four days of presentations by representatives of major technology companies (with as many as five presentations occuring simultaneously), keynote speeches, analyst discussions, and special events.

Working as a freelancer, from my studio as well as at the Jack Morton Worldwide Boston office and on site in Baltimore, I designed, budgeted, and led the development of the networked multimedia installation for the event. This installation was designed to help guide the attendees though a complex facility and schedule, to assist with communication and to answer questions, and also to show that this bank's conferences are on the cutting edge of technology.
The hotel atrium was the central traffic area between the entrance and the presentation rooms. Plasma displays ran a Director-based application with a Tech 2000 theme animation and real-time updating information such as the current presentations, schedule
Plasma displays at the entrance to each presentation room showed the name of the current presenter and the name of the presenter to follow. All information was automatically updated from the backend database.

Web event development for PTC. I designed the UI, built the site, and maintained it during the week-long event.
