Dominique was a student of mine.
I worked on one of the early interactive CD-ROM products. It was called The Wall and was all about the Vietnam Veterans Memorial and to some extent, the experience of the soldiers. It was done at Magnet Interactive Studios and I worked with the lead, Alice Kreit, on it. It is an interesting “historical” piece of my design history. I worked on many other interface and interactive projects at Magnet but, they vanished with the technological changes. I also designed and developed a proposal for an interactive Diary of Anne Frank. But investors lost interest in the CD-ROM industry and, it never happened. Interestingly, within a year or two, the world wide web took off. So many who worked in CD-ROM development went on to be early web developers.
Many of the products for CD-ROM would work great on an iPad now. Indeed, the industry partly failed because nobody wanted to sit at a desk with a CRT monitor for entertainment and there was more money in video games.
Here are some shots of The Wall on Alice’s web site:
