itp // dennis crowley I'm a 2004 graduate of NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program. My work focuses on finding the intersection between location-based services, social software and user-generated content on mobile devices. I work towards building applications that people can use today - services that help people find their friends in bars or restaurants, apps that broadcast information about who and what is around you. I'm also interested in using mobile devices to interact with installations in physical space - think window displays and vending machines. [bio | resume] Oh, by the way, I've been living in NYC for the past 4+ years, currently live in the lower east side, am originally from right outside Boston, did my undergrad at Syracuse Univ. (1998) and I'm in constant search of kids to go snowboarding with. Feel free to stalk me at www.teendrama.com.
