Bridging Analog Beginnings with Digital Frontiers
A profile tracing Peter’s path from a hand condition that pushed him away from
the pencil and toward the Macintosh mouse in 1984 — through his years inside
Kodak’s digital imaging division alongside Steve Sasson, and on to the sculptural,
3D-printed work he makes today.
An interview built around a single afternoon in a Rochester Apple store — the
discovery of the mouse that let Peter keep creating through fibromyalgia. It
follows his quiet fight for digital photography inside Kodak, his Maine-rooted
Virtual Visions series, and his current curiosity about AI and immersive display.
