Builder across art, hardware, systems, infrastructure and AI.

00 — Origin

It started with a pencil.

Before any code there was paper. Drawing and painting were my first language: learning to see, then to make. The line I drew as a kid is the one this signal follows.

01 — Spark

The line became a wire.

As a kid I took apart whatever electronics the house could spare and followed DIY builds from YouTube. Today it's ESP32 boards, and getting one to talk to my Linux machine and Claude Code.

02 — Machine

Inside the machine.

Arch Linux every day. C, operating-system internals and the hardware underneath. I repair my own laptops and build my own setups, because I like knowing what every layer is doing.

03 — Cosmos

A galaxy on a GPU.

A gravity simulation written in C and CUDA, with Python on top. Version one runs in 2D; 3D and more real physics come next. Physics and math are what I read for fun.

04 — Network

Out into the network.

One free-tier cloud server, pushed to its limits. Dokploy runs my mail server, notes, photos, n8n, an AI agent and bot protection, plus sites and analytics I host for other people.

05 — Software

Tools I wanted to exist.

I build the things I use daily, like an Android manga reader backed by my own Python scraper and a remotely hosted API. Backends in Django, Flask and FastAPI, on Postgres.

06 — Intelligence

Teaching machines to help.

Agents and automations that run parts of my day, from an AI agent to n8n workflows on my own server. Alongside them: learning machine learning, data analysis, and scraping the data to feed it.

07 — Product

Currently building.

A product of my own, in active development. Name classified, for now.

08 — Human

Behind the lens.

These days my art is photography. Off-screen: sports, games, anime and manga, and new places and languages. The signal ends where it began, with a person.
