HOOKED Chat Stories. Apple "Best New App".

We're creating new ways to read short stories, intended to increase engagement for readers and quality of stories for writers. HOOKED will be the portal to discover, read, write, and promote short stories—5-minute reads in text message format, including images and videos.

Launched in September, HOOKED reached the top spot in the App Store in Britain and Australia in our category (Books) within a month. I was the sole architect/developer of the app for the first 15 releases.

BAND OF THE DAY music discovery app. Apple “App of the Year” runner up (behind Instagram), “App of the Week” (3×), and Apple “Hall of Fame”.

Cutting edge mobile publishing platform approaching magazine-quality layout, combining content-driven and format-driven aspects with extreme attention to pixel-perfect detail and beautiful & fun user experience. Similarly focused mobile advertising platform bringing content-matched and user-matched, high quality ads that enhance the user’s experience of the app, as beautiful ads in a quality magazine can do. I led the design and development of these platforms.

APPLAUZE is an app for discovering music, sporting, theatre, and community events, then planning with friends to attend and purchasing tickets. Apple “Editors’ Choice”.

Useful information artistically presented: a ‘revealing’ list of showing additional information for events scrolled into a revealing zone, an event category dial with a retro odometer display; an interactive seat map with an ‘uncovering’ list; a slick clamshell; an event feed tailored to the user’s liked & purchased events, iTunes library, and Facebook likes; suggested friends to invite to an event based on past invitations and nearby Facebook friends with similar likes. I led the design and development of much of the app, including significant infrastructure.

Developed two portfolio apps: one social networking and one signal analysis. Location, motion, graphics, animation, audio, internationalization, UI, lifecycle/background, cloud.
