“Don't think too much about your technical setup (especially when it comes to blogging), because to be honest, there is no right or wrong answer. The main thing is to choose a setup that will work best for you, and will give you the least amount of friction possible, which will allow you to focus on the main thing: to get your words, thoughts, ideas, and anything else out into the world. Another thing to do when blogging is to just start (ideally starting off small and working your way up from there) and write whatever's on your mind, using literally anything as a sounding board for your thoughts, even if it's just the built in notepad app on your computer.”

What do you do?

I look at the things that exist at the intersection of art and technology, and I put all of that into one place.

Why?

I curate a wide range of different artists, organisations, collectives, and more because I wanted to have one singular place to have all of the links to all of the interesting things happening at the intersection of art and technology without having to sift through a massive bookmarks folder or having different things stored in different places. To eliminate that problem, I created a simple website where I'd list a link, provide a brief description about it, and add an option where the user could learn more about a certain thing.
