Mike is initial software architect and developer of the Roundware server.
In other words, without him, Roundware would be nothing more than an idea. Mike has been involved with Roundware from day 1. He randomly met Halsey at a Bring Your Own Voice event at the Aldrich Museum (the site of the original ROUND installation) before Halsey had even formulated the idea for ROUND. As they both live in Boston, a friendship ensued and as ROUND began to progress from an artistic idea to a reality, Mike played an integral role in solving problems, answering questions and bringing it to fruition.
Since the original installation, Mike has continued to improve and further stabilize the code while also bringing to life Halsey’s ever-evolving artistic ideas; not an easy task!
When he is not working on Roundware, Mike is seldom bored, amusing himself with projects ranging from a bicycle karaoke machine to a fully functional trebuchet.
