About the site

Website building & maintenance is done via a home-made site generator written in C, by yours truly.

The color scheme of this website is: #260d1a and #d47d7d & the image in the header/footer is taken from Paul Klee's Forgetful Angel.

All textual content is written either in GNU Emacs or Vim. After a long time (and an excellent experience) using Markdown & pandoc with a hacky shell script, I started to want to write HTML directly again, and to strip my site down to the barest essentials. The canonical website is just text on a screen, after all.

This layer of added friction (i, ii) is appealing to me in an obscure way, and maybe tells you more about me than the list of interests above does.

I am staunchly against intellectual property and the use of nonfree software. You can read more on the Free Software Foundation's about page.
