1991, demoed and wrote proposals, and traveled with work related to Alias Research, Inc., a Toronto, Ontario, Canada software company.

(no longer in business as I knew them - see historical records on this webpage
https://bizstanding.com/p/barco+visual+systems+inc-71451043 - merged out in August, 1998.
REGARDING THE MERGING OUT:
Barco (Belgian American Radio Corporation) is a partner with Alias, Inc. in Europe, and bought Maya Video Communications, Inc. in New York. Maya Video Communications, Inc.'s former name was Maya Video Products, Inc., in Nov. and Dec., 1990, when I knew them. In 2003, their name and address were written on the internet - same address that I knew on Madison Avenue, and I reported this in work completed to the California Architects Board. I have had this company on my resume since working there, so many people have seen this. The N.C.A.R.B. or National Council of Architectural Registration Boards has a record of my work experience.
Alias, Inc. is headquartered in Germany in Europe, and Barco is located in Belgium.
Information current as of 2004. As of 2018: https://www.autodesk.com/company/contact-us/office-locations/europe-and-middle-east
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autodesk_Alias
http://design-engine.com/a-history-lesson-on-alias-3d-software/ -
"Alias (was called PowerAnimator and Animator) was a highly-integrated industrial 3D modeling, animation, and visual effects suite. It has had a long track record, starting with Terminator 2: Judgment Day in 1991 and ending in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace in 1999. It also served as the solution used to produce South Park episodes digitally before production was moved to Maya. Alias served as the precursor to Maya and and AliasStudio (when acquired by Autodesk)." ).
I was the first full-time consultant hired by Maya Video Products, Inc. to produce 3-D computer graphics on their computer system, in November, 1990. There were no previous employees who produced 3-D computer graphics, and, there were no other employees who produced 3-D computer graphics.
Full-time consultant ($10/hour, no benefits), third week of November - third week of December, 1990, using AutoCad and 3D add-ons for Barco video projectors sales and marketing, program for installation. Information here: http://cgstudentloandischarge.blogspot.com/2015/07/maya-video-products-inc-faxes-regarding.html and
http://cgstudentloandischarge.blogspot.com/2014/04/maya-video-products-inc-drawings-barco.html .
Regarding payment from Maya Video Products, Inc.:
I was hired on the spot after doing a demo with Autocad software; and was paid the student wage of $10/hour, since the job had been posted as a student job. This job was not posted anywhere near Pratt Institute.
The company had never heard of a Computer Graphics program at Pratt Institute, and I had no diploma to show them, although I had completed requirements for the degree on Oct. 1, 1990, and I was not hired until mid-November, 1990.
In fact, I placed a call to the Pratt Institute Computer Graphics Dept., from this company. I asked Isaac Victor Kerlow about getting a diploma, saying that I had found a job, and, had some trouble because the employer had not heard of the Pratt Institute Computer Graphics Graduate Program.
He told me to talk to Sonya Haferkorn. She called me back, at the company phone number. I told her that I had found a job, but, had trouble because the company had not heard of the new graduate Computer Graphics program at Pratt Institute, and, needed to have a diploma or something to show them, or, someone else, in the future. At one point in the call, I noticed that the phone line had disconnected from the wall. This was before wireless, and, I didn't know how much of what I said she had heard. Anyway, I hung up, and, thought little of this, since she never said anything would be done to help me. I went back to work.
Added November 1, 2019:
I have records that show that Sonya Haferkorn worked for Four 4D Computer Graphics company, until 12/31/1990. From 1/1/91, she was employed, under Timothy G. Binkley, at the School of Visual Arts, as a Faculty Advisor, in the Graduate Computer Art Dept, up until 12/31/1998. She stayed as a Pratt Adjunct Instructor, until 8/1/1991.
She changed her name to Sonya N. Shannon, sometime in 1994, with the help of Madison Avenue Attorneys.
The company's hardware and software were new. There were no previous employees, nor previous work, that they showed me or had knowledge of, to show anyone. There were no books or instructions from the hardware/software seller, and I was given their name and phone number, when I asked my male employer. I have scans of the faxed program, which was sent to the hardware/software seller.
What was published on Dec. 3, 1990 is entirely fiction and the company based the advertisement/publication on work that I was producing at the hour the publication was distributed to the public. They only hoped for and believed, after talking to me, and, seeing what I was producing.
You don't believe them? I wouldn't believe them but I didn't know they published the article/advertisement until year - 2010. That's a 20 year lapse.
The article was published in a Westchester County, N.Y. paper, and, I never saw the paper until searching online at www.highbeam.com. There was/is some other place to see this article?
What I produced for them was technically much more difficult than any work I had produced for Architectural firms that I had worked for, for years, in St. Louis and New York. I was not paid. This would be a terrible joke - if anyone believed, in any way, that I was paid for this work completed.
Dated April 6, 2016, regarding Pratt Institute:
"I found a Mara J. McGinnis, who is 41 years old, married to
Karl Bauer in 2009, and who has been
employed at Pratt Institute since, at least, 2006.
She is, according to the Pratt website,
"Executive Director of Communcations and Marketing",
in Myrtle Hall. She has,
most importantly, the same phone number, at her home address,
that was entered on a
fax from "Design Systems",
from someone named "Jonathan", to me,
in December, 1990, at Maya Video Products, Inc.
That home phone number is 212-995-8494, and,
her home address is: 185 West End Avenue, Apt. 23b,
New York, New York 10023-5549.
She has lived in Buffalo, N.Y.,
Rochester, N.Y. and Scranton, Pa. She was a writer
for the University at Buffalo,
The State University of New York, in 1998.
Two articles she wrote are about:
2 Professors are appointed Distinguished Professors; and,
the President of the Federal Reserve Bank
of New York to give a lecture:
and
I found a few companies that could be "Design Systems" in 1990,
where "Clem" and "Jonathan" worked.
One is located in Williamsville, N.Y.. and, another
is located in Dix Hills, N.Y.
The Dix Hills location was filed as
"Design Systems of New York, Inc."
on August 6, 1987,
in Suffolk County, N.Y., with entity address:
"Seth Steinberg, 6 Lauren Avenue South, Dix Hills,
New York 11746".
This is an inactive company as of September 29, 1993.
The Williamsville, N.Y. location was filed as
"Design Systems Collaborative, A Bissell, Leslie P.C.",
on October 7, 1983, in Erie County, N.Y.,
with entity address: "Bradlee W. Townsend Esq.,
22 Evans St., Williamsville, N.Y. 14221".
This is an inactive company as of March 25, 1992.
Who are "Clem" and "Jonathan"?
I was told that was their names, when I sent and
received the fax, and, talked on the phone.
I was told, though, that the chair file
that I was sent, on a disk, was one of many,
if I wanted any other chairs, on the phone.
THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS THAT I WAS SENT AN AUTODESK
CHAIR CREATED FROM AN AUTODESK FILE,
WHICH WAS PART OF THE AUTOCAD PROGRAM.
I WAS NOT GIVEN ANY BOOK OR INFORMATION
ABOUT THE HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE THAT
I WAS USING, AND,
I WAS TOLD EVERYTHING WAS NEW.
THE SELLER OF THE SYSTEM
TO MAYA VIDEO PRODUCTS, INC.
WAS "DESIGN SYSTEMS".
The other two "Design Systems" are: "Design Systems, LLC",
filed January 3, 2005, with
entity address:
363 Canal Street, 2nd Floor, New York, New York 10013;
and, "Design Systems Group",
filed August 15, 2011, in the New York County of California,
with entity address:
2604 3rd Street, San Francisco, California 94107,
with Sue LaBouvie as Chief Executive Officer.
These are both active corporations
with no Registered Agent.
The N.Y. Secretary of State lists these businesses, today.
"Design Systems Group" is a
Foreign Business Corporation, ID# 4130895.
The others are Domestic entities.
At this 185 West End Avenue location
is another business
called "Revesz International LLC" and
Could this be the same "Design Systems"
that existed in 1990, but, now,
existing under a different name?
This company came up when I did a Google search for
"Design Systems,
New York, New York, 212-995-8494". "
As I posted on facebook.com, on April 6, 2016:
"Maya Video Products, Inc.'s Chief Executive Officer is Hugo VanDamme, at this company, in (Bruges Area on www.LinkedIn.com) Kortrijk, Belgium, according to New York's Secretary of State website. Maya Video Products, Inc. merged out (became inactive) on August 5, 1998 in New York, and, became Barco Visual Systems, Inc., at 148 Madison Avenue, N.Y. 10016, with Principal Executive Office at Barco Incorporated, 3240 Town Point Drive, Kennesaw, Georgia 30144. According to www.LinkedIn.com, two CEOs of Roularta Media Group are Rik de Nolf, and, Xavier Bouckaert. But, Hugo VanDamme is a lot more: http://www.bloomberg.com/profiles/people/178799-hugo-vandamme .

There were seven, in total, who graduated in 1990 with the degree "Master of Fine Arts (Computer Graphics)". They are here:

We did not have a thesis show of our work, a requirement for any M.F.A. degree in the U.S.
The picture of Joaquin Margot, (using surname of 'Gil' on Spain) M.F.A. shows his facial expression on the CD, and his thesis was of his own facial animation on a scanned model of his head (scanning done by a company named "Cyberware"). Although his facial model animation was accepted as thesis work, he had completed similar sculpture and, using other software, his own head modeling prior to his thesis. Alias/wavefront, Inc. used his 1990 thesis facial animation to make a point regarding copyrights and usage of others' work, in 2002; in regards to pictures, scanned images, and the internet - by introducing the use of a watermark. Joachim Margot speaks five languages, being of Swiss nationality, and, dual nationality with Spain. See:

My graduate degree was called 'Experimental Computer Science and Engineering' in publications after 1991, when I left New York. The degree was called 'experimental' by the accrediting board N.A.S.A.D. in the early 1990s.
The School of Engineering and the Dept. of Computer Science were eliminated at Pratt Institute, in May, 1993. I have important info online on Google blogs, dated from Nov. 2008 -
http://www.PrattInstituteComputerAccreditation.blogspot.com, and,
http://prattcomputergraphicscharterclass.blogspot.com/ but, posted earlier on AOL. This degree name was changed, around 1996, to include "and Interactive Media". The Department, since 2006, is called 'Digital Arts'.
Among students and faculty in the Computer Graphics Dept., I was the only New York Registered professional.
Isaac Victor Kerlow, M.S., was Professor at N.T.U. in Singapore, Singapore, and, was Chair of the Computer Graphics Department.

Shown:
Prominently - similar work to my thesis, in the form of a poster, in Fall, 1990, at the A/E/C Expo, in New York. I received scholarships to attend their A/E/C conventions in 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001, and attended two - one in Chicago, and one in Philadelphia.
My Alias Animator class had a project shown at the ACM-SIGGRAPH Conference in Dallas, Tx., in 1990, named "Itsy-Bitsy Spider".
Invited:
Fall, 1996, I was invited to help teach an Independent Study Alias Studio software class in the School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, Systems Science and Mathematics computer lab (through the School of Architecture, Urban Design and Research Center, and Mr. W. Davis Van Bakergem, Director). At that time, I moved into the Washington University neighborhood, and have lived here since.

At the same time, I was hired, on contract, to work in the Facilities Dept. at Monsanto Headquarters (now Bayer), 800 N. Lindbergh Blvd., St. Louis, Mo. 63167, using MicroStation software.
Monsanto - Wikipedia
Later, after starting this work with Alias Studio, I was asked to help with data entry, in placing ADA compliant sidewalk and curb cuts around the city of St. Louis, working out of Washington University School of Medicine. Davis Van Bakergem asked me to do this work.
But, I was overwhelmed with work needed on an old house, bought from a "For Sale by Owner" seller, in November, 1996. The house came with obsolete wiring, tarred floor tiles, 100 year old tools, and, existing, tarred original roof. The 100+ year old house, is where I live, and, have lived, now, for 21 years. The work was done myself, under property management, as a Real Estate Broker, representing the buyer/owner. This is the Washington University neighborhood. 1120 Blendon Place, St. Louis, Mo. 63117-1911's house is for sale, now. See the work here:

A sound wall was installed by the Missouri Dept. of Transportation, just before 2009, along Hwy. 40/64; and, other forms of transportation, with pedestrian, and, highway improvements, greatly improved the property. Other structural rehab and replacement projects in the neighborhood, have added to property worth. See the blogs and facebook.com.
Also, regarding the St. Louis Virtual City project:
http://cgstudentloandischarge.blogspot.com/2015/07/what-is-city-and-st-louis-virtual-city.html Information was written regarding this St. Louis city block, and, neighboring St. Louis city/county (Richmond Heights) blocks, for lack of architectural and engineering software, to create and build the area, virtually.

In 2002, completed a drawing, which I scanned, and painted on a computer - the difference is noticeable. The lines are messy - see this:
https://cgstudentloandischarge.blogspot.com/2018/03/scanned-drawing-which-was-painted-in.html .
With information from the Independent Study class, I put together a paper for further funding, to continue the class. See:
http://cgstudentloandischarge.blogspot.com/2014/04/report-that-i-created-after-being.html
Also, the Urban Design and Research Department, in the School of Architecture, was at work on a computer browser. I had in mind to put together, based upon the sun position every day of the year, and, hour of the day, a home shading program. This has been done since - this program exists today:
http://susdesign.com/index.php .
1991 - created a cartoon, to be published in the Washington University student newspaper, and, presented this to a student, whose mother worked in the Dept. of Chemistry. See this:
http://cgstudentloandischarge.blogspot.com/2015/03/smiles-in-aisles-cartoons-relevant-to.html
1991 - put together a paper, proposing a new, small business. This was presented to a Small Business Advisement group, called SCORE, of older, retired businessmen, located in the Old Post Office, 815 Olive Blvd., St. Louis, Mo. 63101. The business, that I proposed, was sending greeting cards through computer software. The software did not exist at that time, and, I proposed writing the software. This is the SCORE website:
https://www.score.org
1991, 1992 - generally, had a series of informative interviews with Architects, Production facilities, Graphic Artists, University students and Professors, regarding the software Alias Research Animator and PowerAnimator, 3D modeling software for Silicon Graphics workstations. These interviews were in the St. Louis area, including at Hellmuth, Obata, Kassabaum, Inc.; in Illinois, at S.I.U.-E.; the city of Chicago; at the N.C.G.A. conference; Kansas City, at the Kansas City Art Institute. There were no Architectural firms that owned this software, at that time, in the St. Louis area. I received this from Chicago:

May, 1991, was verbally hired by the Physical Facilities Dept. at Washington University, but, was put on hold, and, never put on the payroll. At the request of Mr. W. Davis Van Bakergem (now at UMSL History Dept.), I put together a software acquisition proposal for that Dept. I was invited to demo Alias Research, Inc. software by him in 1992, but declined. See:
http://cgstudentloandischarge.blogspot.com/2013/07/real-madrid-in-st-louis-missouri-on.html .
Demoed Alias Research, Inc. PowerAnimator software to grant seekers and employees of the Washington University School of Medicine, at Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology, and, the University of Pennsylvania - Philadelphia School of Medicine, in July, 1991, after a referral from the Chicago Alias Research, Inc. sales office.
I have posted information on facebook.com, regarding radiology at the University of Pennsylvania - Philadelphia, and the School of Medicine. I met a middle-agedman, and, a younger woman.

Added November 1, 2019:
In fact: Timothy G. Binkley, who hired Sonya Haferkorn on 1/1/91, at the School of Visual Arts, had a daughter, named Shelley Sue Binkley, who was student, studying for her M.D., at Temple University, in Philadelphia, from 1/88-12/31/1992. Was this the woman who accompanied the men, seeking a grant for Alias software purchase, at WU's Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology, in July, 1991? Sonya Haferkorn AKA Sonya N. Shannon, married Timothy G. Binkley, after he divorced his wife Sue Binkley (later married to H. Randolph Tatem III, M.D., a Radiologist in the Philadelphia area).

Online and Continuing Education:
I have posted books for sale
https://www.sellerratings.com/amazon/usa/bookllite , under seller "BookLLite", since August, 2014.
https://www.google.com/patents/US8016461 - I had a patent, Lamp Lite, and, real estate land, posted on
https://www.ebay.com/ for sale, in 2016. The patent, started in 2006, followed a copyright granted 10/5/2001 for the Lamp Lite product graphics - VA0001132580. See:
http://cgstudentloandischarge.blogspot.com/2014/08/lamp-lite-product-ready-to-sell-for.html
and
http://cgstudentloandischarge.blogspot.com/2014/08/lamp-lite-hanging-light-fixture-product.html .
The Lamp Lite product was completed, as a student, in Alisa Zamir's Communications Design Dept. class, at Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, N.Y. I did not find a buyer for the product, after moving back to St. Louis, in 1991. This is all I could do to continue my education, for credit, under Architectural Continuing Education, required for Architects, for many years.
Mr. Stephen A. Nutt, was a V.P. of Programs at the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards, Washington, D.C., and, was a Kansas State University classmate of mine, class of 1983, and a partner in KSU's Professional Practice class, and, is from Mo. He oversaw continuing education and licensure for all Architects.
A mutual associate,
Katherine R. Bozoian, R.A., who was a roommate of mine in St. Louis, 1985-1987. She started out studying in the “Architectural Studies”, through Interior Design, program at Univ. of Mo.-Columbia, but, transferred to KSU 1980-1981, and was employed in her own company, Bozoian Group Architects, in Brentwood, Mo.
Katherine Bozoian graduated Summa Cum Laude from KSU, in May, 1983, although she never lived on campus, was never pictured in a yearbook, nor attended only two years of KSU's Architectural Dept. classes. She posted this designation on LinkedIn.com- this has since been deleted. I knew her two years at KSU - my Senior and 5th year. I did not know her my Junior year.
https://www.linkedin.com/in/katherine-bozoian-ab235175/
Regarding Summa Cum Laude was posted on Google blogspot and facebook.com in 2015, into 2016 and 2017.
http://cgstudentloandischarge.blogspot.com/
I found the OZ Journal, from 1983, where Katherine Bozoian was a Managing Editor:
Volume 5, 1983 – Oz JournalNeither of these people has a graduate degree.
I was referred to Pratt Institute by the former Head of the Dept. of Architecture at Kansas State University, Mr. Eugene R. Kremer, F.A.I.A. He told me he had lived in the Pratt area, and I know that he was licensed in Architecture in N.Y.
This is Eugene Kremer:
Perhaps he was referring to the fact that his wife's parents lived (and are buried) in the Queens area, which is not far from Pratt, and, some of his mother's family is buried in the Brooklyn area. There are not any other historical records showing a connection to Pratt Institute. He told me that he had lived in the Pratt area, in his office, and I followed Katherine Bozoian, who had just talked to him, and, was leaving, at the time that I arrived, at the door, to his office.
I did not know that Katherine Bozoian had graduated Summa Cum Laude until seeing this on LinkedIn.com. I know that she did not know but a few in our graduating class, and, she knew these from working on the OZ Journal.
My Move to New York, do you know Katherine R. Bozoian and Eugene R. Kremer - dated June 30, 2022.
