I'm a designer and AI/data practitioner. Half my work is for clients — usually small teams trying to do something new — and half is mine, in the open, on this site.

Most projects start with a small, concrete question and grow only as the question earns it. I write up what I learn. The writing is mostly for me, but I publish it because I find sites where someone shows their working more useful than ones that show only the conclusion.

My practice spans three modes. Metamorphosis is design and iterative development — client work and personal projects where the surface looks settled but the decisions underneath almost never were on the first try. Gnosis is AI and data analytics — notes from inside data work with cooperatives, archives, and small teams. Tinker is experiments, digital and physical, documented in progress including the dead ends.
