iSat coordinator python program – © iSat LTD, created by David W. Beck
I’ve been enjoying learning Python, it’s a powerful language with a huge number of applications. One of the first full programs I wrote was the Logging program which tracks the position of satellites and records the data in an external file at the desired interval.
At the start of a new minute, the program records coordinates, prints and exports them into a new or existing CSV (Excel) file.
The second full program was iSat’s satellite feed adjustment program. I was part of a small team, and I focused mostly on UI development.
I enjoyed writing the program and came up with many innovative solutions to problems.

Designer, developer and programmer on ‘Spawn; A ‘Ribbiting’ Adventure’ at London South Bank University 2010
Lead a small team of Game Culture and Sonic Media students to create Spawn. A fun, challenging Flash based platform game. Our hero, a young and daring frog named Spawn has to overcome five levels and a dangerous final boss to save his family from the slag mafia lead by the oversized slug King Plato. The game featured pre-rendered 3D effects, scenes, and background, a beautiful Soundscape that enhances the immersive environment. Spawn wasn’t just game; it was a state of mind and a calm place the player could visit whenever they wanted. A demo reel for Spawn can be seen here.
