My power strip design, now called   Pivot Power, is available for sale at Quirky.com.

I am Jake Zien, designer and programmer, and you have found your way to my portfolio website. At the moment, I am working for a startup designing user interfaces, which, with any luck, you'll hear about later this year. I find inspiration in quantum physics, nostalgia, wit + whimsy, the capacity to surprise and delight, jazz + electronic music, object-oriented programming, vernacular typography, and great cheeseburgers.

WORK    THOUGHTS

For this project, I was to tell a story through pictures in a three-minute "visual narrative," something between
a storyboard and a full-on animation. I chose to base my project on a monologue from Edward Albee's play
The Zoo Story.
