September 2021

After I set up this space, beginning of this year, I started a new job and moved to Sweden. The job was terrible and in effect I neglected my personal experiments and explorations, including this capsule. This was the second time I've lived in Sweden and I have a hunch that we just don't match ... so I quit.

Now that I have a new job and moved, I re-discovered gemini space. And WOW, it's so refreshing - again! Just today I found KONPEITO (1), an awesome "quarterly Lo-fi hip hop & chill bootleg mixtape, distributed exclusively through the Gemini protocol". I am so excited to sit in front of my "Gemini laptop", a 2012 Panasonic Toughbook, typing away and finally starting to populate this space!

About

I run, design and code.

Currently I enjoy the beautiful tracks around my home village (2) with my brother, work on voice interfaces (3), and try to wrap my head around uxntal (4).

In the past I've worked on things like haptics design software (5), digital privacy features (6) and a radar interaction sensor (7).

Before all of this I was as a bicycle mechanic (8) in the village next to where I grew up. There, I also ran a small recording studio for even smaller bands.
