Design is a very interesting concept. It’s all around us. So much so that we even notice it. The late Bill Moggridge once stated that it doesn’t occur to most people that everything is designed — that every building and everything they touch in the world is designed. I find this to be very true. …

Moon Graffiti was a great audio piece. The way the audio was put together made me feel as though I was with Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin while they were on their journey.
