History

In my teens I taught myself 3D animation, angling for a career as a computer artist. But art school didn’t mesh with me, and I realized my joy came as much from technology as artistry.

So I flipped myself inside-out, fashioning a career as an art computerist, if you will. I’m desperate to make code feel like a living being, and I couldn’t be happier.

What I Look Like Online

Sometimes this,
My new profile picture — a hyper-colorful, dithered photo of my face with a finger held to my lips. I look more feminine in this photo, which is why I like it better than the old one.

sometimes that,
My old profile picture — a high contrast black and white double exposure of my face, one where I'm looking up and to the right, and a second where I'm looking up to the left. The left-looking face is somewhat covered by the hair of the right-looking face. I have some stubble in this photo, which makes me feel dysphoric now.

depends where my head is at.
