I’m a programmer, musician and electronics experimenter from Australia. I run Linux and write basically every programming language in existence to do what I need to do. Sometimes I write about it here!

I’m particularly interested in Digital Signal Processing and synthesizers, and I contribute to Surge Synthesizer and related projects.

I’ve also written a lot of network and security software, device drivers, embedded systems software, etc, as well as some hobby video games on a variety of platforms. Although I’m early gen Z, I learned programming on a Commodore 64 and take an interest in computer internals and optimisation.

Another interest of mine is human languages, and I’ve written various tools to help manage language information. I speak English as my native language, but I’ve studied Spanish, German, Japanese and Mandarin.

I’m also an amateur radio operator. My callsign is VK2LNA.

I’m very shy, and for security and safety reasons I’ve made a habit of living behind anonymous handles. I’ve let a lot of things slip by, but most importantly I’d like to stop information being lost. So I’d like to document my projects and my solutions to various problems here. I hope they can be helpful to someone else!
