Polivision Website Programmer Job Description/Part-time/Paid
Polivision Productions, LLC is a production company that specializes in web-based video content including music videos, promotional pieces and documentary projects. We have worked with clients such as Sotheby’s Institute of Art, Benihana Restaurants, and Pür. We have also done music videos for a number of signed artists. Our services cover all aspects of video production from concept creation to final video placement. Polivision is currently wrapping up a rebranding and restructuring of our business and is looking for a website programmer to join our team. Our website is currently under construction, but you can check out vimeo.com/channels/Polivision to see examples of our work.
We need someone with a deep understanding of the backend construction of websites, strong programming capabilities, and the ability to develop and create innovative platforms to experience video on the web. Polivision would like to not only offer clients web‐based videos, but also provide the service of creating the habitat in which the videos live. Many of our clients have internal web teams, but others (especially our music clients) are looking to build a website from scratch based around the videos we produce for them. We would like our videos to be an experience rather than just a simple embedded piece. With the right web programmer on our team, we can create new ways for users to experience video. We would like to take advantage of the emerging market for touch screen and mobile devices like the iPad and iPhone, and create websites and “apps” that deepen the user’s experience of our videos. We believe that video doesn’t have to strictly live in a single rectangle. It can reach beyond its traditional borders and become an integral part of the infinite space of the Internet.
We are hoping to build a regular working relationship with a talented programmer. We have several potential projects outlined below, but as we expand, we would hope to continue to work with this programmer on a wide variety of projects. In addition, we would like to work with the programmer in developing video platforms to pitch to prospective clients. On all of these projects, the web programmer would work with our existing team of graphic designers, so the programmer would not be solely responsible for the aesthetic design of the websites. Although we are looking to build a regular working relationship, we are not looking for a full‐time employee. The programmer would be hired on a project-by‐project basis either as a paid independent contractor or, as warranted, via a contribution of the programmer’s time in exchange for portfolio‐building work. The jobs and all communications can be completed from home and during the school semester.
Potential Projects:
Development and programming of websites for existing and future clients including musicians
Enhancing and maintaining Polivsion’s own website
Development and programming of interactive environments for experiencing web‐based video
Qualifications
Extensive knowledge of programming and web development software
Experience thinking creatively and building dynamic websites
Knowledge of “app” creation desirable but not required
Strong oral and written communications and research skills desirable as some projects may require research into best‐practices, new technologies, and innovative approaches
As a programmer, developing a regular working relationship with Polivision will give you opportunities to create strong portfolio pieces and gain professional experience. We are looking for someone who is creative and willing to experiment. We want to work with you to create new ways of experiencing videos on the Internet. This research will not only be educational, but if proven successful and desirable by clients, it can provide solid ground on which to land when you graduate. The Polivision staff members you would be working with are alumni of Rhode Island School of Design, Tufts University, and Brown University. Polivision also works regularly with a large team of talented independent contractors from the New York University Tisch School of the Arts and RISD. We are all very open to collaboration and pushing each other to think progressively. Please email your resume and any links to relevant web development projects to Info@PolivisionProductions.com and do not hesitate to contact us with any questions.

Joint Materials/Solid Mechanics Seminar Series
“Microfluidic systems for Biochemical Analysis”
Sun Min Kim
Department of Mechanical Engineering
Inha University
Incheon, Republic of Korea
Wednesday, July 7, 2010
3:00-4:00 pm
B&H Room 190
Abstract:
In this seminar two components of microfluidic systems for biochemical analysis will be presented. Firstly, active and passive micromixer devices for protein sample pretreatment will be introduced. A simply fabricated microfluidic device that has a micro/nanochannel interface enhanced the active electrokinetic mixing of two fluid streams and a new passive micromixer which uses flow variation by microchannel geometry was also investigated by experimental and numerical studies.
Secondly, two novel protein preconcentration devices will be introduced. Sample preconcentration is a critical operation required for the determination of trace amounts of analytes of interest for which the concentration in the original solution is lower than the detection limits of the instrumentation. In this research, two novel techniques, embodied in microdevices, were created. A simple PDMS device was fabricated by weak bonding between PDMS and glass substrate. Upon application of electric fields, sample concentration is enhanced 103~106 – fold in 30 minutes. Another simple PDMS device using Temperature-Gradient Focusing (TGF) will be described. High electric potential applied to the device induced a temperature gradient within the microfluidic channel due to the channel’s variable-width, and analytes were focused at a specific location as a result of temperature-dependent species mobility.
These microfluidic devices can be a component of integrated Lab-on-a-chip systems for biochemical analysis.At the end, the current researches in our group will be briefly introduced.
