Plan for Timothy Downs
by Timothy Downs · 06/21/2004 (11:00 am) · 0 comments
My final year of college is approaching and I have a "final thesis." This is a project which, I a designer, has to choose a subject to research and develop a final product. I have chosen to do a Virtual Portfolio that utilizes gaming technology to allow viewers to walk around a gallery as if they were there.
This idea is also stems off a philosophy I have of also using gaming techonology for alternate uses besides gaming itself. I would like to push the boundries eventually and actually turn my final thesis into an actual product that artists can use. When this product is developed I plan to make it fairly affordable and persue cross-platforming it. Until then it will only be able to be viewed on a mac.
After the experience with the "Virtual Portfolio," I would like to pick up a project that I dropped, which was Inbetween Reality. However there are many other things I would like to persue.
