Ingenuity Bank

The Ingenuity Bank was an online suggestion box, designed for brainstorming new creative ideas. I worked on interactive guided video exercises for inclusion in the tool as well as some illustrations, animations and a marketing site.

Honeyshed

Honeyshed was quite the thing. Basically it was a combination of SCTV and the Home Shopping Network using hipster city kids as the spokespeople. I don't know why it failed, probably the video costs, but it was an interesting design and I think if you could keep the costs of creating the video down, the basic design is still a good one.

My role was small. I just took their photoshop composites and programmatically skinned their components to look like the photoshop mocks, but it was such a rediculous and entertaining site that I have to associate myself with it as much as I legitimately can.

As of 2013, you can still see some of the video's with a search on YouTube on "Honeyshed".

In this case, the tool teaches the cartesian coordinates, geometry, and concepts of iteration through emulating Native American bead loom designs.

There is one version for grades 1-3 and another for grades 4-12. These teaching tools won't work on an $800 Ipad with retna display, but they did work on even the first version of the one laptop per child computer
