About Curimentis
I like figuring out how things work.
I like making them work better.
And sometimes I just want to see what happens when two completely unrelated ideas meet.
Try it yourself
The idea collider
These are some of the things I can’t leave alone. Most of what I make starts when two of them bump into each other. Go on, try a pair.
The full Collider lives in the LabPick any two.
A few working habits
Working habits
- 01Take it apart first.Understanding usually comes before improving. Occasionally it comes instead of it.
- 02Show the workings.If something gives advice, it should be able to say why. That goes for software and for me.
- 03Say “I don’t know” early.It saves a remarkable amount of time later.
- 04Finish the small version.A small thing that exists beats a grand thing that doesn’t.
- 05Leave room for play.The useful ideas tend to arrive disguised as the silly ones.
Some things I make are useful. Others are experiments. A few probably shouldn’t exist, but here we are.
Curimentis is where I put them.
I’m keeping the biography short. I’d rather you get to know me through the things I build.
