RE: FW: BIOS Q&A

Adam and I are “Principal”. Stephen …. We don’t know yet. Last good one was something about “Geometry Construction”, but I don’t remember exactly. He’s sending you the Q&A shortly.

Not too long. ½ page each? Or less? Kind of like your example.

About how long would you like each of these to be? Also, which business/position titles would you like me to use for each of you?

Groovy. I'm going to be out of town for a few days, but I'll get this taken care of when I return.

Okay-dokey:

1. Where are you both from, and where have you lived?

From: Midwest, USA. (Chicago; Omaha; Kansas City; Lawrence, KS; New York; Providence; now back to Chicago)

2. What firms have you worked at?

Rafael Vinoly Architects – New York

Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates – New York

Elkus Manfredi Architects - Boston

3. Education, etc.?

Bachelors of Architecture degree from University of Kansas. Though, I had a strong discipline in film as well.

4. How did you go about getting into your current biz?

It was back in 1996-97 when I was in my fourth year of architecture school. This was a couple years before computers started to replace drafting tables. The technology was starting to become more accessible and we had access to some professional 3d software in our computer labs. I was always a bit ahead of the curve when it came to computers and technology because I didn't have the irrational fear of "breaking" a computer. I saw a new tool and thought to myself "that looks fun, I think I'll see what I can do with it." It helped me push the boundaries of my design, as I was able to experiment with forms that would have been impossible for me to visualize on paper.

5. Give me a quote about why 3d appeals to you as an art.

3d lets you experiment and explain those experiments to others. So, until humankind invents a fully immersive and interactive real-time computer generated holographic environment maker, 3d will be my tool.
