Mr. Orner’s professional career has been an eclectic mix of technology and art; algorithms and imagery. Academically trained in writing and history, he began an erstwhile career in computer programming and relational database management before graduating to graphic design, photography, and marketing communications. Professionally, Mr. Orner specializes in distilling the essence of complex information into simple, accurate, palatable form, with words, images, video, and design that emphasizes elegance. He offers decades of experience in brand management and marketing communications in industries ranging from high technology to higher education. Imagery is the foundation of this work, and Mr. Orner’s eye for essence is best expressed in his fine art photography. His work attempts to find new meaning in ordinary things—a patch of rust, an improbable view, an unturned stone, asking for attention. He asks questions, and invites the viewer to fill the space with their own material.
