Olympia and York, Edwin Schlossberg Inc 1991

Project Description:I rebuilt this animated text messaging system installed throughout the World Financial Center.I assessed the needs of the clients, designed the interface, wrote the code, documented the system and trained the users at Olympia and York�s Arts and Events Department.I built an authoring system for building new screens, a system for porting screens from a database, and a system for scheduling the screens� playback.

I worked with David Bixby of ESI.

Technical Notes: I wrote the system in CANDO on an Amiga connecting to a Hash animation module.The system made extensive use of the Arrex language for interprocess communications.This ran 24/7 unattended for years until it was replaced in 1998.
