Was a visiting professor at Cornell University and a senior fellow at the Edelstein Center for the History of Science and Technology at the Hebrew University, Jerusalem. Current research includes the development of scientific communication within electronic networks and research in distance learning. Graduate teaching includes courses in international communication. Primary interests are in the analysis of digital media audiences, multimedia project management and testing, and distancelearning. Corporate consulting includes work in industrial use of the Internet, testing of digital products, and the design and implementation of multimedia distance learning.
Current research focuses onthe impact of design theory on multimedia.
My graduate teaching includes courses in distance learning, project design and testing, and Web demographics. My primary research interests are interactive design, interactive narrative, and the history and development of representational media. I am mostly optimistic about this possibility. I am currently working on a textbook, Principles of Interactive Design, which attempts to unite the myriad traditional disciplines in which interactive designers are now trained into a single coherent digitally focused design vocabulary. I am working on several projects that prototype broadband entertainment and information applications, including work with interactive television and with history museums.
