•CONSULTING PRODUCT DESIGNER, CONCEPTUAL FORECASTING, CORPORATE BRANDING.

PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY. I am an autodidact, Mechanical and Industrial Designer, and Conceptual Artist, specializing in creative design solutions. Author of the design engineering white paper, Formula One Geometry in Human Powered Land Vehicle Design; 20+ years of research into carbon fiber Forward Prone Position Speedframe Design and Construction. Author of the OFF-WORLD Man Anthology, a military science fiction novel series based on decades of research into the U.S. military aerospace community.

I was accepted at the Art Center College of Design in 1987. However, I was unable to attend due to financial hardship.

My portfolio www.coroflot.com/GeneKWalker is a limited forecast of my concepts on product, transportation, and architectural design. I was born to be an industrial designer engineer. I am a 'CREATIVE'. The creative process is my life. I would have become a professor and made a difference in the lives of design students.

Design and Marketing ARTIFACTS of the FUTURE



In 2006, I began studying novel writing and began the industrial design-themed novella series The Off-World Man Anthology: The Ultimate Collection. In the novella series, I forecast near-future products and transportation, what I term artifacts of the future. I placed the storyline a mere 30 to 100 years into the future, knowing full well that many of the concepts may not be available to the everyday consumer for at least 100 years.

The OM Anthology was the only way I could contribute to the continuum of professional industrial designers and mechanical engineers, and students fortunate enough to pursue a career in those fields, dedicated to envisioning Artifacts of the Future. Design engineers are priests of the purest of all creative processes. 'Priests of Creation'.

They are trained to tap into that solution-oriented process at will. And their works enhance and advance the human condition with every innovation in materials and function. They can make a real difference in such far-flung fields as medical science, transportation and aerospace, consumer products, and emerging technology.



"I'm gonna see if I can live outside the lines of my body and mind.

I'm gonna see if I can find time to sit and wonder why forever.

If I need a little money, I'll sell my soul, though it isn't worth much.

Maybe I can pay my cosmic debt before I turn to dust.

Spent my whole life looking back and wondering who I was.

Spent my whole life looking up and wondering who I am."
