Side projects
Working with Walker Education Systems, I've been playing with creating intuitive computer programs to build schematics useful in preparing talks, posters, lectures, and interactive activities for the classroom. Currently, an arthropod bauplan builder (line drawings) and a generalized program for modeling gene expression are nearing completion. Designed with the presentation in mind, the programs will align the segments represented in each window when both programs are open, all color is optimized for projecting/printing, and exporting a high-resolution file is as simple as clicking "export." Written in LiveCode, these tools are optimized for both Mac and Windows. Programs available here soon.
