Summer with Me

People ask me, "Gee Aram, where did you learn how to cook?", or "Damn Aram, where did you learn those moves?"

Well, the cooking started with my mother and then grew as I travelled from Hawaii to Minneapolis, Minneapolis to Italy, Italy to Korea and then back again, where I am now studying interaction design in Ivrea. The dancing... well, some try to blame it on the hula but who knows for sure. It probably has something to do with the fortitude of Piedemonte wines.

If that wasn't your question, please write me and I will answer happily.

This is my first year at Interaction Design Institute Ivrea. This website contains the work I have done here in the areas of interface design, tangible computing, and service design. My earlier interactive, design and media work can be found at thefarwest.net.

I am looking for an internship outside of the schengen states. Offers from the US, UK, Switzerland, Canada, Australia, South Korea, or Japan are very welcome. If I didn't mention your country by name, please don't feel left out. I'd like to hear from you too!

I offer you my hardened skills of prototyping for screen and video, as well as an inhibition towards bodystorming and a fertile imagination... as one partner said of me, "I don't think he's ever seen the box."

I am interested in companies and research institutes in fields related to interaction design, especially those breaking new ground in gaming, narrative, and services.

Sincerely,

Aram Saroyan Armstrong
Ivrea, Italy

[Schengen State] It's not that I don't love the EU, but the Gods of Immigration have an on-going feud with the Gods of International Love and threw my fiancée and I a mighty curve ball, stating that she could not stay anywhere in the EU for more than 90 days and after which could not return for another 90 days. But we're working on ways around this (we are getting married this spring!) because we like Europe and we like being together.
Next: Turn On
