I presented my hobby as a mapper to a group of doctors today.

It was amusing.

All the other doctors talked about growing bonsai trees, playing an instrument, or painting.

I talked about mapping. It was definitely different.

One of my friends's husband is a game developer for Microsoft. He was able to get me a limited edition print of a concept art for Halo 3.

I was asked by our medical group to share my hobbies with everyone. Little do they expect to have a hardcore gamer among them.

I am planning to talk about my level design experience and demonstrate my various mapping projects. I'll illustrate the process of mapping.

Here is a brief outline:
  • Background
  • played video games since I was 9 years old
  • hiatus during college and medical school
  • started mapping with a map editor in 2004
  • got paid $1,000 by a site to write mapping tutorials
  • dm_detritus
  • the mapping process
  • development screenshots
  • cs_justice
  • inspired by the Santa Barbara Courthouse
  • vacation with my wife
  • courthouse tour by the county architect/blueprint
  • comparison photos
  • Maps by fellow designers
  • Kasperg's Kauffman House
  • Kasperg's Serene
