Function generators and drum machines and things like that, going into a visualization engine AND also projecting into an infinity room which has some strings hanging or something to catch the projection.

2020 Burn Week Alternative Camping Trip
I decided to make this post because I have done a super lot of research for this project and I need to keep it all straight and share the results with a few people. I wanted to do a camping trip for burn week this year because the burn is canceled. I had considered going… Continue reading 2020 Burn Week Alternative Camping Trip
Buy PM2.5 Inserts Instead of N95 Masks
One hundred PM2.5 (N95 quality) filter inserts costs just twelve dollars. For a face mask to be rated N95 means it must filter particulate matter down to 2.5 microns (PM2.5). PM2.5 covers both viruses and smoke particles. The problem today is that medical professionals need the N95 masks and hoarding them will get people killed.… Continue reading Buy PM2.5 Inserts Instead of N95 Masks
Razer Stealth 13 2020 Review
My old laptop lasted me four years to the day, according to a Facebook memory on the day this one arrived. I like to go for the highest quality in the most convenient package and then stretch it as long as I can. The Razer Stealth 13 2020 was the obvious choice for something new… Continue reading Razer Stealth 13 2020 Review
Yaddlestation
I put this battlestation or “yaddlestation” together for several reasons related to a number of projects but I had some questions about this setup so I wanted to do a sort-of roll-up post about all of it. Notice baby yoda watching from among the plans and inspiring the name. First there is the computer which… Continue reading Yaddlestation

It needs a magnetic field, and some oceans. Having read science fiction for decades and considered this question at some length, I keep returning… Continue reading Moon Catcher

Corona Country
Corona Country is a twist on the earlier project Covid19 Progress. This app shows you data at the county level in your area. So you can see how coronavirus is going where you are. There are a couple of reasons I decided to launch this project. While it’s interesting to compare countries and states, I… Continue reading Corona Country
Covid19 Progress
I saw an opportunity around the lack of clarity and accessibility for coronavirus statistics. I also saw a lot of misleading claims made by people with an agenda. I wanted to bring clarity to the data and make it easy to understand and compare. And so, Covid19 Progress was born! This simple site allows anyone… Continue reading Covid19 Progress
Beat The Smoke Without N95
Update: With one of these in my room, the PM2.5 stayed at zero even when the outdoor PM2.5 was over 800! Hoarding N95 masks and other medical supplies during covid is irresponsible and unhelpful. I will show you a better alternative. I have severe asthma. As such, fire season in California poses a real… Continue reading Beat The Smoke Without N95
