=Notable work=

Neurotica 1998 - 2001


Originally Han's Neurotica series was a Comic Strip which he described as a "ongoing self-portrait" that chronicled his life as an artist during the Mid-1990's . It was during this time that he decided to adapt his Neurotica idea for the internet and began publishing Modern Living Neurotica on his own website first as Animated Gif's and later using Macromedia's Flash which introduced his first attempt at creating Interactive Art Media . The series later concluded in 2001 when the 100th episode was published.


Hotel 2004 - Current


Hotel was created for the Submarine Channel and debuted in 2004 on its own website. The series has an interactive Flash-based story which follows Dr. Doglin as he tries out strange experiments with volunteer subjects. This is contrasted with a comic strip which is released with each episode which seems to be a Prequel which will lead up to the first Flash-based episode. Unfortunately the project doesn't have any set deadlines which means that the episodes tend to come out Irregularly . The series is currently almost finished with only one episode left to go.
There is also a fake website here which is supposed to be Dr. Doglin's own website which has an ad for volunteers.


NAILS

Han's current series of work are interactive flash shorts, that are reminiscent of the original Neurotica series, with him featuring prominently as the main character.
