Creative

The stuff outside the day job — curated, not exhaustive. More if you ask.

Music

Back to making music after a long gap since music school (2004–2013). One released track below; live-coding work next to it.

More on the YouTube Music topic channel.

Live-coding in Strudel

Algorithmic composition in Strudel — pattern language, Web Audio under the hood, hot-reload from browser to speakers. Part music, part tiny DSL.

Writing

The Book of the Two and the Three

A ~22,000-word illustrated math book written as scripture — every verse is ordinary geometry, physics, or computation, and all of it checks out. Hand-coded SVG plates, a rigorous appendix, and a custom Python pipeline that binds the markdown canon into HTML and print PDF.
