R. Damien Clark, Macintosh Consultant, opened its very unofficial doors in 1998. Most clients were individuals, but individuals including Herbie Hancock and Alan Kay. After working through Evolution Film & Tape on the first seasons of Big Brother and Fear Factor, R. Damien Clark picked up its first production clients in 2001. Feedwire incorporated in its present incarnation in 2002. Since then its client base has expanded steadily, mostly attracting clients in reality and specials production.

Damien’s background in geekery is vast. He started with a screwdriver and a dishwasher at five. Curious about the dishwasher’s inner workings, he disassembled the dishwasher entirely. It never worked again. By seven or so, the reverse process began to work out and machines went back together as easily as they came apart. 1984 and a father with a new job at Apple brought the Macintosh into Damien’s life. The two have been inseparable ever since.
