Passion for coding with an eye for design.

My name is Joshua Kevin Goldberg, and I am a member of Rennselaer Polytechnic Institute's Class of 2015, majoring in Computer Science. This is my website, which showcases some of the bigger projects I've done. I've been doing code work since middle school, and a side of graphic design since high school. Maintaining professionalism both as a worker and as a programmer is important to me, and I strive to keep it clean in all regards.

Full Screen Mario .com

Full Screen Mario is my open source HTML5 remake of the original Super Mario Brothers. You can play the original levels, literally millions of procedurally generated maps, or create your own using the level editor.

The public site for this project received almost 2.7 million unique visitors before being closed by a DMCA notice from Nintendo. The coding project lives on, and is continuing with an active community of developers.

Schalk Lab .org

Schalk Lab is the name of a group of researchers based in the Wadsworth Center. I started web work in the summer of 2012 by creating the public website and private wiki. The following winter I developed a PHP/JS/MySQL app to manage user accounts & mail for the lab. This past summer I migrated the app to an internal lab server (NAS).

The most well-known public contribution of Schalk Lab is BCI2000, a general-purpose system for brain-computer interface (BCI) research. The lab members also research and publish on bleeding edge findings in neurotechnologies, both in clinical and research settings.

BCI/MySQL Connector

Continuing the Schalk Lab work, I developed a MatLab database management application for the lab. It stores the data on lab subjects and data collection runs generated by BCI2000 in a MySQL database such that researchers may query the database using filters on any stored metadata.

The BCI2000 MySQL package is available for free for non-profit research and educational purposes, as is BCI2000. It is currently undergoing user testing pending its addition to the BCI2000 project; to use it in your own work, contact me.

RPI ResLife .edu

RPI's Residence Life is an early website I did during Freshman year - the department needed someone to reorganize their old, cluttered site and give the front-end a facelift. The website runs on Luwak, an XLST-based app very similar to the coffee.

Afterwards, I continued support and created the new hall and apartment pages. Meeting and getting to know the professional staff was and still is a terrific experience!

CS Tutoring

I am one of ALAC's Computer Science drop-in tutors for the Fall 2013 semester. We offer tutoring services free of charge to all students starting the second week of school, 8-10pm Sunday - Thursday in Sage 5101. Students in all 1000-4000 level undergraduate courses are welcome to attend!

Tutoring this year follows a slightly different format than in the past: in addition to the regular coding help, there will also be scheduled Q&A sessions where students may, as a group, learn about the concepts taught in the CS courses.
