Friend with most complex hair style: Eric Chan Need More? Still There? Read On! More Info I am currently a junior in the College of Engineering (Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences) at the University of California at Berkeley. (Imagine having to say that over and over) I like to write music, mainly ballads, (and of course this makes perfect sense with me being in the Engineering division) and will probably get a music minor at Berkeley. I also draw stuff in my free time (when not writing music or playing games). More on this later on. I've been programming and messing with computers in general for over 16 years. Programming languages I know include C/C++, Java, Pascal, BASIC, Intel and Motorola (Apple II <sheesh>) Assembly, Logo, blah be blah, and some confidential OOP languages. I currently work for Sendmail, Inc. designing and developing their GUI for Sendmail. If you use America Online, Compuserve, Earthlink, AT&T, Pacific Bell Net, and about 80% of all ISPs out there, you'll find Sendmail there scooting your mail around the Highway. Artwork is another thing I like to mess with. This particular skill was inspired by a friend of mine. She has more artistic talent than anyone I know of. Anyway, she got me started. I have been published a *few* times in the past, but lately I've been doing most of my artwork using a graphics tablet. Some of it is online in the gallery (off the main page), but most are not. (because they are from my AP Art portfolio which needs to be shrunk to size, or scanned from the slides) In addition to all that, I do graphic design (layout, logos, print graphics, etc.) which you take a look at. My most well-known work is the Club Daze publicity media. It was created entirely in Adobe Photoshop, (people think that I used 3D programs to render the text -- its not true) and had a few supplements from Kai Power Tools. I also do web design, and have created sites for various corporations. But that's mainly freelance stuff. So there it is in a nutshell. E-mail me. Why? Because I don't get very much. I get even less than my friend Andrew Seidl, who says he gets no e-mail at all. Sure, Andrew. And now I will leave you to the neat and fun stuff on the rest of my page, (songs, movies, artwork, etc.) As is always, I don't update this bio very often, so most of this stuff won't be changed in like a year or two when I come back and say, "Hey! Forgot to change my bio!". Well Hey. - (09/17/98), previously - 03/03/97 |
