The History of Boo
The ajos BooFace started with a candid picture that was taken in college at Tulsa University, Oklahoma. The Photo began a transformation when I was at the University of Tennessee, Chattanooga, on a wonderful, old AT&T 8086 running dos. The GUI was not the best, nor was the scanning technology at the time, but Boo prevailed! The BooFace became a symbol of freedom for me, as well an icon for all that I represent, and an inspiration for my capabilities. Year after year, the BooFace was a reminder of the days of learning, growth and freedom that youth had to offer. Within three years of its creation, it became a permanent part of my life, as a tattoo upon my left shoulder blade. Below are variations of Boo, through the various stages of my life since its creation.
