Pictured Above: The Warhol Seduction
This image was created for a graphic design project in which I was to appropriate an iconic painting into a new contemporary work of art by manipulating it however I saw fit. As I have always been fascinated with both Andy Warhol and pushing the acceptable boundaries, I decided to render something risque to test the administration's tolerance of "free" speech ... they politely obliged me with no recourse (2013).

Pictured Above (Right): Collage Compass App
This is an interface rendering for an app I had played around with designing that would allow users to anonymously post digital "sticky notes" to other students on a community board informing other scholars of various happenings, events, class advice, etc. Later an app called Yik Yak was produced that followed this model and was quite successful (2011).

Pictured Above: Tyler Durden "Fight Club" Poster
One of my favorite all time movies is David Fincher's "Fight Club" (1999), an adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk's novel by the same name.

I do not claim to own the rights to any of the logos of the brands and companies depicted (2013).
