At the hackspace, I mainly mess around with bikes, cameras, games and the laser cutter. I'm equally comfortable fiddling with software or building stuff. I was once declared the Nottinghack crash test dummy due to the number of times I've hurt myself with bikes, snowboards, &c. For work, I run events for the videogames industry, and make kits to sell.

At present (Jan 20th) I'm nominally in charge of membership related stuff, but I'm keen to devlove that responsibility to a bigger group of people - partly because as we grow, that role takes more time, and partly because I'm generally in favour of spreading power out rather than centralising it.

Skills:

  • Bike maintenance
  • CAD (Draftsight)
  • Laser cutting, CNC milling
  • Photography
  • Level design, Unreal Engine
  • Joinery (Can teach basics)
  • Arduino development (Rank amateur)
  • Soldering (Beginner)
  • Unicycling (Beginner)
  • Rubik's Cube (Intermediate. Can teach you how to solve a standard 3x3, but Msemtd knows much better methods and can teach other types of cube too)
