I
am available to work on visual language adaptations, such as books
and website content, as a speaker, and as a consultant. Please
contact me with any and
all questions, inquiries, or proposals.
 Visual
language “adaptations”
One of the
greatest potentials that visual language
has to offer is how it can effectively convey complex ideas in
a very accessible fashion. I am available to work on books, websites,
educational materials, etc. The works I find most appealing are
both passionate and well-argued. Topics I’m especially drawn
to include (but aren’t limited to):
- Politics
- Media
and politics
- Media
and body image
- Politics,
religion, and science
- War and
morality
- Educational
material
My drawing
styles are versitile and adaptable, stressing a blend of humor
and straightforward, practical communication. Samples of my adaptation
work include:

 Speaking
Teaching
is one of my greatest passions, and I have spoken at colleges,
academic conferences, comic conventions, and museums. My visually
rich lectures can cover several of these topics and a
lot more:
- Defining
"comics" and their relationship to visual language
- Cultural
considerations of Art and Language and their affect on graphic
production
- Myths
surrounding graphic creation
- Visual
Language Grammar: How sequential images create meaning
- The relationship
of visual representation and writing
- Multimodality:
Text and image relationships
- The ailments
of the American comic industry, and how it can overcome them

information and video clips, see my "Speaking"
page.

 Consulting
I welcome
the opportunity to do more consulting on topics like visual
language, graphic communication,
text-images relationships and the creative process.
I'm particulary interested to work on projects that are related
to education, progressive causes (such as environmentalism),
and science. If you think I can provide a unique point
of view to your ideas, projects, or inventions,
I'd be happy to help make that happen. |
