The Adventures of Dan,
Music Enthusiast

Welcome to my website.

I am receiving a Masters degree in Library Science (MSLS) from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in Spring 2010.

Recent projects include an introduction and research guide to Net.Art, art that uses the Internet as its medium. Check out the 10 Examples of Net Art for a taste!

I invite you to take a look at my portfolio of Web work, print and packaging design, categorized in the column to the left.

If you're as passionate about music (or data longevity) as I am, this article about CD rot may interest you. The best part was being invited to share my data with the Library of Congress, which is undertaking a significant study of the issue in anticipation of moving their catalog to digital media. And the worst? I learned some lessons about the fallibility of the news media. But at least the basic fact, that CDs and DVDs do not last forever, was conveyed.

Enough from me. I hope you enjoy the site!
