Résumé and Headshot
My professional résumé lists my work experience as an Internet Application Developer, FM Radio Disc Jockey, et al.
Audio & Video
AUDIO: From 1995-2000, I worked as a disc jockey on various commercial FM stations in Iowa, using the alias Eddie James. Five years later, I inexplicably started doing it again.
VIDEO: "Medium of Exchange" is a locally-produced short film which I edited using Final Cut Pro, and in which I play a role.

Sweat Lodge Info
The legendary hard rock band Sweat Lodge played gigs in Iowa and the midwest from 1991-'97, attracting armies of fans known as "sweat-heads" to writhing mosh pits.
I was the band's manager starting in 1995. The "murmur" Web page, which I created to promote the band, has info for Sweat Lodge fans including audio from a backstage interview with vocalist Andrew Genous.
