About

I’ve been blogging since the early days of Blogger. I got a hoodie out of it before Google took over. The blog’s been through various (ugly) versions, way too many WordPress updates, and is now mercifully static.

I’m pretty nerdy. I like computers, making things with code, and fixing things that aren’t supposed to be fixed. I also love animals and combat sports. Combat sports gave me a reason to want to be healthy, and I will forever be grateful.

I like writing, and have written an odd collection of things: personal essays, short stories, a horror film script with a friend, a feature on an up-and-coming young female boxer. However, I don’t write regularly. I keep the blog here for nostalgia, although I’m not sure I’m done writing.

I like to take photos with film cameras. And buy old film cameras. Buying film cameras can become something of an addiction. They are finite and the search for a bargain is often irresistible.

I have a linkblog at neuromantic.org which I use to note interesting stories about science, code or culture. One of my favourite things about blogging is that sometimes strangers leave me comments. I love that. I will figure out how to do that again in this template.
