Welcome to the index page for all the tech-related subpages on my website. I frequently joke that I consider myself a technomancer, which is only a half-serious consideration. I don't think I can control computers with my brain or anything unhinged like that. I personally consider having an intimate knowledge of the modern computer as an inherently MAGICAL phenomenon.
🦠 I'm not talkin' D&D spellcasting or some new age cult shit. Magic feels like it's simply a byproduct of our all-too-predictable, pattern-obsessed human brains. To me, it's an amalgamation of those impossible-feeling coincidences (déjà vu), miraculous moments of pure human instinct, and an inherent connection with the things around us. Whether it's scientifically-viable or not doesn't matter to me; it's all about the feeling!
🐌 Personally, I feel very odd having experienced such a one-in-a-million coincidence: to be a human who happens to be alive at the exact time we developed the modern computer and Internet, who has a lifelong experience in understanding their operating systems at such an intricate, instinctive level. It's a weird power to have!
ANYWAYS - I am constantly collecting old electronics, hoarding computers, tinkering with anything I can source from the thrift store or on the marketplace. I figure the best place to yammer about all of my cool tech stuff, aside from when I can trick my wife into listening to me talk about it, is on my website! This page will eventually hold all the things you see detailed below; not all links are functional at this point.
