Hello!

My name is Gaeel Bradshaw‑Rodriguez

I am a designer and programmer, with a background in interactivity, digital art, and computer-enabled experiences. If you're working on something weird, fun, thoughtful, or rebellious, I'd like to help you make that thing happen!

• I built Superstructure, an opinionated website builder for blog-ish websites.

  • It's what I use to generate my website
  • It uses Pug and Sass to handle layouts and styling
  • It takes Markdown-formatted articles and generates pages
  • With a little bit of YAML metadata in the articles, it handles everything else:
    • Tagging and listing on post and tag-specific pages
    • RSS/Atom feed generation
    • Open Graph and IndieWeb metadata generation
    • And other sweet things, like alternate layouts and stylesheets...

• I’m currently learning Rust, TypeScript & React

  • I'm really enjoying learning Rust! It's nice to use a language that guides you to good software design!
  • I've used JavaScript a lot, and I'm excited to see how TypeScript makes JavaScript development more reliable!
  • React is new to me, I'm looking forward to seeing what I can make with it!

• I made Nebulae, a renderer for an alternative way of representing the Mandelbrot set.

  • I used this project to learn Rust and writing highly parallelised code
  • A classic Mandelbrot renderer colors pixels based on the number of iterations to escape the Mandelbrot set
  • A "Nebulabrot" instead draws a "heat map" of the trajectories taken during iteration
  • tl;dr: It makes pretty pictures with mathematics

• I like to play with modular synths, listen to one of my jams: THONKIN'

• Some of my projects are visible on my portfolio

• I sometimes write articles on my website

• Ask me about Procedural generation, accessibility, and tabletop roleplaying games
