Designvelopment is a term I use to describe how I'm switching constantly between a sketchbook, code, and pixels, blurring the line between creative and logical thinking. This site is meant to be an outlet for my thoughts as an interactive designer and developer, as well as a resource for others in this field.
Thanks for reaching out to me. I'll be in touch as soon as possible.

I can’t believe I haven’t heard of this before. Following a link in Boing Boing, I came across the virtual reality game Second Life. This takes The Sims to a whole new level. The population in Second Life is already over 40,000. Second Life is not so much a game in itself, but a virtual world within which there may be games, communities, commerce, etc.
