\begin{ressection}{Projects}

	\resproj{Basilisk Go Server}{Senior Project at UNCG was to build a a successful correspondence
         board game server in Perl. It demonstrates proficiency with object-relational mapping (ORM),
         web templating with forms and javascript, version control, regular expressions.}
	%%%	\ressubitem{Server is at http://www.basiliskgo.com}
	%%%	\ressubitem{Source with revision history is at http://github.com/zpmorgan/basilisk}
	%\resproj{Collision::2D}{Collision::2D is a float-precision continuous collision detection
  %    system for some geometric shapes in 2D; it detects collisions between
  %    points, circles, and rects of any size and velocity.
  %    Originally implemented on Moose, it was ported to an XS backend.}
	\resproj{AI::Nerl}{
      AI::Nerl is a perceptron-type neural network library. AI::Nerl uses PDL, the Perl Data
      Language for fast linear operations, including training using backpropagation.
      AI::Nerl has been used to build a digit classifier and a general image classifier.
      }
	\resproj{Cinderblock Go Server}{
      Another Go server, a vast improvement from Basilisk. Uses Redis for storage and websockets
      to enable either correspondence or real-time play. Games::Go::Cinderblock spawned as a
      variant rulemap implementation. Scrollable board rendered with HTML5 canvas.
      POV-Ray was also used to render the pieces.
      }
	\resproj{Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead}{
    An established post-apocalyptic sandbox-style roguelike game. I solved almost all of the
    instability problems and rewrote the vehicle collision system to enable more "realistic"
    vehicle-vehicle collisions.
  }
  \resproj{Wordbath}{
    A transcript editor \& an exercise in workflow optimization.
    Wordbath's features include tempo change, home-row key combinations,
    basic text-audio alignment, and an xml-based markup language.
  }
