Hi, I'm Jesse. This is where I keep my stuff.

I’m incredibly excited to announce my new project with Figure 53: Chroma Tickets.
It’s in the early stages, but we’re going to be pretty public about our progress. For now, Twitter is the best place for updates. Depending on your inclination and interest, you can follow me (@jkriss), Chris, (@chris_ashworth), @Figure53 or @ChromaTickets.
Here we go!

Just a quick update for anyone who might’ve missed it on Twitter: I’ve started a new microsite for my DJ mixes. I’ll be throwing in some historical stuff, too, but it’s primarily a place to dump quick and dirty mixes. They won’t be polished or conceptually rigorous, but I will try to post them more often. Here it is: http://sound.jklabs.net

Today marks a fairly major professional transition: I am officially no longer a full time employee of IBM. Before you worry, I am not another casualty of “in this economy,” nor am I ending my work with Many Eyes or the illustrious Visual Communication Lab.
Starting right now, I am (once again) an independent contractor. I’ll still be spending a lot of my time working on IBM projects, but I’ll also have the freedom to do outside work. Those of you who know of my connection to Figure 53 (not to mention Chris and Sean, personally) won’t be surprised to hear that I may be putting in some hours for the company that spawned QLab.
Although my schedule is pretty much full in the short term, I plan to take full advantage of my newfound flexibility. I’ve got plenty of ideas in the backlog, but if you have any visualization, interactive music/audio, or other interesting work in need of a collaborator, you know how to reach me: jesse@jklabs.net or @jkriss.

Just a quick announcement: I’m starting a new blog at http://food.jklabs.net. All culinary adventures will live there, not here.
