Highly regarded by his peers, Bobbitt's works are published in high level arts and science journals, like MIT's Leonardo Journal, for example. Not just
creative fun, real research of value (still beautiful to view!). ********* Bobbitt might be the man to watch in coming years as results of his creative
investigations seem likely to impact our understanding of what and how things work here in the new media.” Ted Warnell 1999

Observing Behavior “********* is an astute observer and is able to take seemingly random behaviors and make sense of them. Further, he can quickly
form strategies and introduce tools that not only make sense to the student, but also result in increased positive engagement. ********* is highly analytical
and creative in his approach. I acquired new information and insights from him during our discussions about student behavior and ways to perceive the
function of behavior.” Gigi Aaron, M.A. (2011) Lane Regional Program.

MPLOYMENT

“Nat demonstrated an extremely high level of enthusiasm for the work and spent a large amount of his free time reading the
collected publications of this lab over the last 15 years in order to gain insight into the progress we had made. I was impressed at
his ability to read and digest a significant volume of work and to display a clear understanding of the science even though it did
not fall within his area of expertise. He was quick to begin questioning me on the techniques employed and the applications of the
technologies developed.” Alex Smith Ph.D. (2014) UCF Hybrid Systems Laboratory.
