Some of his work is archived in ARS Electronica in Linz, Austria and The University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida and the City of Austin. His film work includes an internship for famed film producer Lynda Obst and running locations on a film set directed by Forest Whittaker for 20th Century Fox in Austin, Texas and the surrounding area as well as for a handful of films which he received credit for on screen and on IMDB.
