About plasq

plasq is a small group of passionate people, spread around the world, working to create better computer interfaces and enjoyable experiences.

We work towards creating simpler, fun, more inspiring, more flexible and natural interfaces than ever before. Find the file you're looking for - to create what's in your mind - to express yourself.

We want to raise your expectations in digital products. We want you to know that using a computer can be as rewarding and expressive as a paintbrush, a guitar, or some playdough.

Hopefully we have reached that goal when you forget our interfaces are there or you are simply just having fun!

(in order of joining)

Airy André - Paris, France
airy.andre.online.fr

I am a software developer who is curious about understanding how things work, and how they should really work. So I am writing AudioUnits (and other stuff too), most of them trying to be different.
One day, I'll be a musician too.

Robert Grant - Lead developer - Charleston, South Carolina, USA
grantedsw.com

I've been developing software professionally for almost twenty years and I love to combine interesting technologies to create new products. I dabble in music and art - but programming is my life. plasq is a great team to work with to cook up new cool software and freshen up some of my prior projects. Factoid: my first computer was an Atari 400 - loved those sprites, sounds and programming the VBI!

Øyvind Selbek - Backend systems and servers - Kristiansand, Norway

Having developed for various systems since the age of 10, I love to create cool software, with a special passion for web applications, backend administration systems and automating or simplifying tedious repete-te-te-te-te-tive tasks. I'm a PC fanatic for a decade turned mac user who never looked back

Mark Pearson - Technical Support and Quality Assurance - Tasmania, Australia

With an affinity for computers from a young age (loved the Commodore 64!) and a desire to help create cool software that people actually enjoy using, I joined plasq. I have a background in Marketing and computer technical support plus my enjoyment of using computers has made working with the plasq crew a perfect fit. Plus I get to beta test unreleased software -- sweet! ;)

Ted Slupesky - Portland, Oregon, USA

One of my first real jobs was working for a little company developing software that ran on the NeXT computer. Although my career took me in different directions after that, I never lost my love for the AppKit and Objective-C. Being at plasq lets me work on fun projects with great people and use the best software development environment -- how great is that?

Mathieu Tozer - Chief Doozla wrangler - Traveling around the world

I'm passionate about creating useful and well designed software for Mac OS X and the iPhone. Creating Cocoa apps is my hobby as well as my job, so I'm quite lucky in that respect. I always say I'd be doing it for free if I weren't getting paid! I love to travel, speak Japanese, and exercise.
