Biography

I have been taking Quicktime VR since the spring of 1995. My first project was a virtual tour of punxsutawney, PA and Punxsutawney Phil the Groundhog. In 1996 I covered the Democratic National Convention as a virtual reporter for theChicago 96 internet site. Commercially, I have mostly done Corporate virtual tours of facilities, but I have also taken VR from a helicopter and in dark nightclubs. I have documented parades in Chicago in Quicktime VR, such as the St. Patrick's Day Parade. I enjoyed participating in the Wrinkle-In-Time project, where a hundred photographers on five continents shot VR at the same moment and posted the results on the web. Sacred Places in Chicago: Chicago is full of sacred places and people on spiritual journeys. These panoramas represent only a tiny fraction.
