Colloquium Series Continues THIS WED at 4:00 pm
We have a bit of a change in our speakers for this week - below is some brief information about this weeks exciting guests.
Richard Sweet and Bruce Hunt are principals in Oregon Stage Tech, a small start-up that has been creating theatrical lighting technology for the Oregon Shakespeare Festival during the last 7 years and is now preparing to market this new technology to other theaters. Both presenters have deep experience earned in the trenches of Silicon Valley during the emergence of the computer industry. During this presentation, they'll provide anecdotes, some non-obvious lessons learned, and a demo of their latest HW/SW hybrid products.
Dick was a student of Donald Knuth at Stanford, where he received his PhD in Computer Science. He worked at Xerox PARC (Palo Alto Research Center) starting in 1972, being present for the invention of the Ethernet, laser printing, the desktop windowing metaphor. After 13 years at PARC, he went to work for Chuck Geschke and John Warnock at Adobe Systems, where he created embedded controllers for the very first laser printers. He later joined the Adobe Advanced Technology Group, where he created a number of projects, including teaching Adobe Acrobat how to capture and display web pages.
Bruce holds a M.S. in Computer Engineering from Stanford and has likewise enjoyed an extensive career at Silicon Valley start-ups and with major companies including Zilog and SRI International. He managed Apple Consulting Engineering Services from 1988 to 1993, creating such products as a "military-spec" Macintosh, greeting card kiosks for Hallmark, a locomotive management system for Burlington Northern RR, and more. Bruce worked as an engineering manager for numerous companies, including managing the ShockWave product at Macromedia and managing Internet Research in the Advanced Technology Group at Adobe Systems.
Dick is a self described “theater junkie” who moved to Southern Oregon because of the Shakespeare Festival. Bruce is a model railroad enthusiast who also enjoys theater.
