bio: |
I'm a two-decade long working member of Colorado's rave and nightlife industry. I get to do some pretty cool things like: - host people's websites,
- build web applications to make venues more efficient,
- assemble and play with big-ass sound systems,
- develop native software for controlling theatrical controls (lights, lasers, video, etcetera),
- design and build crazy light and video stage shows,
- repair DJ and performance related electronics (like CDJs and mixers),
- and follow around perfomers to fix any crazy problems that prevent them from entertaining people.
I make shit happen. |
