Bezier Patches

• Created for CS 3451 (Computer Graphics)
• Program in Processing that reads in control points for Bezier patches and creates collections of polygons from this information; program is capable of toggling between displaying the control points and showing detailed curved surfaces.
• keystroke commands: 1-4: Read in a Bezier patch (one patch, sphere, teapot, elephant), a: Show a patch as line drawing of a single quadrilateral, using the corner control points, s: Show each patch as lines for nine quadrilaterals, using all 16 control points, d: Show each patch as a detailed collection of solid polygons (10 x 10 points), r: Toggle between white and randomly colored faces, space: Toggle automatic rotation on and off.

GPU Programming

• Created for CS 3451 (Computer Graphics)
• use the GPU (vertex and fragment processors) to carry out various rendering tasks: modifying a translucent blue polygon so that it looks like eight translucent circles (by modifying the alpha value on a per-fragment basis, using a fragment program), performing edge detection of an image (using a GLSL fragment program to perform a number of texture lookups in order to calculate the Laplacian at each texture coordinate position, and modify the geometry of a collection of polygons (using a vertex program) subdividing the original quad and displacing vertices along the normal vector using the intensity of the closest texel to the vertex from the provided bump image.

Game Boy Advance Computer Games

• Games developed in C for the Game Boy Advance using Visual Studio Code
• Watch playthroughs here
• Produced as homework assignments and labs for CS 2261 (Media Device Architecture)
• Fish Game: up and down arrow keys move the player (orange fish), avoid the big fish (or lose a life), press the GBA 'A' button while over a small fish to eat it (and gain a life), reach five lives to win.
• Duck Game: left and right arrow keys move the player (duck), duck can catch one piece of fruit at a time by touching it, sort apples into apple bin (bin A) and oranges into the orange bin (bin O) by pressing the A button, be careful not to improperly compare apples and oranges, reach a 'fruit sorted' score of 5 to win
• Space Invaders Game: left and right arrow keys move the player (Millennium Falcon), player can shoot by pressing the A button, defeat all of the invading ships (TIE Fighters) to win, you have 5 lives so be careful not to get hit or it is game over.
• A Tour of Mordor: a Lord of the Rings inspired game. Play as Frodo, avoiding orcs, the Eye of Sauron, and Gollum in order to get through Mordor to its center where you can throw the One Ring in the lava and save Middle Earth. Use the One Ring to hide and Sting to defend yourself!

Moving Squares in Processing

• Created for CS 3451 (Computer Graphics)
• Interactive Processing project in which layers of various sized squares are rotationally symmetric around a middle square. The position of the squares changes based of the position of the mouse.

3D Mondrian Piece

• Developed in A-Frame as a 3D interpretation of an iconic Mondrian Painting
• There are several versions: one that allows the viewer to walk freely around the still piece, a version where you can click on the different elements to change their colors (several of the piece "breathe" in and out), an animated version where the pieces rotate in and out of place, another rotating animated version where the camera also rotates, and a version where the colors transition
• View still version, animated version, interactive version, auto color transition version, rotating camera version
• View still version code, animated version code, interactive version code, auto color version code, rotating camera version code

Speculative Self-Brand Identity

• Created brand guidelines and style guide for a potential animation company called "Fish" including logos, typography, color palette, and more.
• Download pdf here
• Created for LMC 2720 (Principles of Visual Design)

Data Structures and Algorithms (Java)

• Created data structures and algorithms in Java (using IntelliJ as an IDE) using JUnit tests to test finished code
• Created ArrayLists, Circular Singly-Linked Lists, Stacks and Queues, Binary Search Trees, Heaps, HashMaps, AVL Trees, Sorting Algorithms, Pattern Matching, and Graph Algorithms
• Created for CS 1332 (Data Structures and Algorithms)

Twitter Bot

• Created using Twitter account linked with JavaScript files to address how women in politics are judged upon their appearance rather than their actual political stances. This bot searches for tweets that include a hashtag of a male politician, then retweets it with a message that @s whatever male politician was tagged and includes a fashion-critiquing quote that has been said about a female politician. The retweet alters the selected quote to masculine pronouns, in order to bring an awareness to how these sort of statements are traditionally used against women, but not men. The retweet also includes a link to the story the quote is from so that those who view the tweet can also see evidence of specific instances of female politicians being judged based on appearances

Journal Game

• Created using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to tell a story that the user can fill in. The user plays as a boy by interacting with his bullet journal. Hovering over highlighted sections allows the player to view illustrations corresponding to the text. Clicking on blank underlined sections leads the player to a choice between two statements which can change the final outcome of the game.
