For over three decades, my work has lived at the intersection of art, design, and technology. From the CUNY classroom chalkboards to the streets of NYC to the digital realms of AR and VR, I have always looked for ways to push the boundaries of how we create and share visual stories. Today, that journey is taking a significant leap forward. I am thrilled to share a new expansion of my creative practice, a deep dive into SaaS (Software as a Service) development, powered by Replit and our friends, Claude and Gemini. This is not just about making tools; it’s about “Creative Preservation”, ensuring that our human-centric art and logic remain visible and effective in an increasingly automated world.
Here are three new software projects that define this new direction!
1. AI Web Doc: Is Your Digital Identity AI-Ready?
The way the world searches is changing, and it is faster than you may think! People are moving away from traditional search engines and toward AI agents like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. AI Web Doc is a tool that I built to ensure your website is not left behind. It provides a comprehensive 50-point audit to see if your site is “readable” by AI systems. From ai.txt implementation to semantic HTML, AI Web Doc gives you the roadmap to stay seen and relevant in the AI search era.
2. MFA Thesis Architect: Structuring the Creative Mind
Writing a thesis can be the most daunting part of a Fine Arts degree. I integrated my “Seslow 5-Module Methodology” into a custom AI-driven web application designed to help students transform raw studio notes into structured frameworks. You can find it embedded directly in my comprehensive guide to writing an MFA thesis, (which is still one of my top ranking posts here to this day) or use it as a standalone tool here: MFA Thesis Architect. It’s about using technology to fuel the specificity and depth that a great thesis requires.
3. RSMAD Kinetic Ticker Plugin: Motion for the Modern Archive
As an artist with a massive digital archive, I needed a way to display visual work in a way that felt industrial and alive. The RSMAD Kinetic Ticker is a “No-Code” engine for WordPress that turns a static media library into a seamless, scrolling art wall. Unlike standard sliders, this was engineered to preserve the motion of GIFs and align mixed aspect ratios into a uniform, kinetic experience. It is the same engine I use here at the Museum of Art & Design to keep the work flowing. View the ticker at work in all of its glory on my Museum factory page here.
The New Design Frontier
Building with Replit and AI has allowed me to expand my design services far beyond traditional branding, logos and web design. I am now focused on building functional, intelligent tools that solve specific problems for creatives and small businesses. This is more than a technical shift; it’s an evolution of my visual language. I’m excited to keep building, keep breaking things, and keep sharing the results with you.
Let’s build the future together.
