Jazz has 35 years' experience in computer programming and is a web designer as well as being the first certified graphics engineer in the UK for the Corel Graphics company. He created 'Atmascape', software that psychologically profiles a person to create graphical heat maps of the motivations, strengths and weaknesses in their Learning and Creativity. He has imported these Atmascape maps into the Unity 3D game engine to build 3D terrains that form the foundations of a Virtual Reality world. In this virtual world, each person can experience and travel through their 'inner landscape' leading to applications in improved mental health, learning, creativity and even social wellbeing.
