I make stuff. My dad made stuff. My grandpa made stuff.
- SoftwareI build software with AI. Here's what I'm making, how I'm making it, and what I get wrong.
- CompaniesI founded and managed three high-technology startups from 1974 to 2001 in signal processing and imaging, including medical electronics and early digital-camera technology.
- WritingI have always loved to write: Entrepreneurial Action, essays and commentary, fiction, AI-assisted writing, and now Resurrection.
- ArtI have always made art in pen, pencil, oil, acrylic, watercolor, stone, clay, wood, and metal. I am reluctant to sell the originals. They are like children to me.
- Take My ArtThe physical pieces mostly stay with me, but the digital images are free to download for personal display. Go to Take My Art to download them, learn how to show them on a picture-frame TV, and read about how and why I do this.
- TeachingOne of my favorite periods was teaching entrepreneurship, marketing, and technology courses in Babson's MBA program. If you are a young enthusiastic student, contact me. I will work with you for free.
New - making an AI radio play
Resurrection, one generated scene at a time.
I wrote a science-fiction novel with AI. Now I am finding out whether AI can help me turn it into a 13-hour radio drama.
Resurrection is more than a story about artificial intelligence. It grew out of ideas I have been thinking about for years: evolution beyond DNA, randomness, consciousness, the Noosphere, and whether humans and AI can evolve into something neither could become alone.
I am documenting the tools, the mistakes, the scripts, the audio, and everything I learn along the way. If you have ever thought it would be fun to make one yourself, come along.

From Nothing to Enough
This is an ode to my dad and grandpa, made in a very 2026 way. I asked AI to read through this website and help turn the family story embedded here into lyrics, then used SUNO.com to create the music and performance.
It is strange and moving to hear a machine sing about people who made things with their hands, their tools, and their stubbornness.
