The University of Sussex

I completed a years internship with the Web Team at The University of Sussex in 2009. Since then I have been employed as a front end developer with the University.

The University recently redesigned their web site. I worked on Sussex Internal, the internal facing sites for the Universities students and staff. I also wrote templates for Study Direct, the Universities VLE (Moodle based).

I was also employed within the University by the Laboratory of Apiculture and Social Insects (LASI). I designed and produced a resources section on their web site. It includes educational resources such as slideshows and an image magnifier.

The tree of life

My submission to the 10K App contest.

An applicatoin that demonstrates how all life on earth is related.

The University of Sussex - Campus tour

A souped-up fullscreen slideshow. Clickable asterisks bring up modal windows containing slideshows, carousels, text, video. Also contains a season changer.

Slightly mad use of JavaScript. I researched, designed and coded it. Also did some of the photography.

It'll go live soon.

Sierra Leone Heritage

A repository for cultural relics from Sierra Leone.

Design, XHTML, CSS and JS.

A project by UCL and the University of Sussex to be launched in the near future.

Desk lamp

Coathanger and brown paper lamp. Cost about £6 (mostly for the light fitting and flex) to make.

Axis of Eco

An invaluable online resource for environmental journalism, by my friend Zoe Cormier.

The design, HTML and CSS is by Boo. I integrated the site into Wordpress, wrote custom PHP functions, added some JavaScript and made various tweaks.

Hassocks Pet Centre

Design, some photography, coding, custom built guestbook and Wordpress backending.

The Househouse

This was the product I designed for my degree project. A tree house for the tree-less.
