Robot Salmon

Check out our web design school blog. We are students at Capilano University. Web design is our passion.

ROBOT SALMON

We decided to call our blog Robot Salmon because sometimes we feel like digital fish swimming up stream against a strong current of digital content. We thought it was fitting; like we were swimming up stream to spawn creations into the world… figuratively of course. Robot Salmon is our attempt to catalog and curate our journey to learn to become interactive designers.

If you are a web designer, information architect, web developer, copy editor, taxidermist or print designer then Robot Salmon can offer you some nostalgia (and hopefully some laughs) on your journey upstream and into the cloud.

We are Tayber Voyer, Nicole Farley, Laura Mason, Max Stockholder and Kyle Brownlow. You can read more about us individually in our profile pages. Together we are Robot Salmon.
