Update #4: Press Release Coming Soon

Posted on March 11, 2010

I'll be sending out a press release in the next few days. We'll be canvasing all the local TV, Radio, Print and Online media. This should give us a much needed boost in funding if it all goes well. It would be really cool to be featured on Kickstarter while the project gets the coverage it needs.

Connected as Pete Fecteau (369 friends)

I'm a designer by day. I moved to San Francisco to take up a fellowship with Code for America where I worked as a creative director of sorts, helping to design applications that make cities have an easier time doing things made easy by the technology age. Since then I've been a consultant, helping start-ups in the bay area by building interactive prototypes.
I have a passion for helping people, especially school kids. As a dyslexic I struggled through school and I want to make learning fun and effective. That's why the subject matter I choose for my mosaics have an added layer of history and education to them.
