The back yard
(some of) the inexplicable things I do for fun
Blends of Pi, photography, pyrotechnics, aviation & things you do with your fingers.
Aliens sentry gun CRT
Ever wake up in the morning wanting to recreate a retro movie UI with just HTML, CSS and a dash of JS?
Features zero bitmaps / SVGs, a funky CRT raster effect and is faithful to the movie.
The documentaries...
We're presently shooting some documentaries across a number of subject matters.
But perhaps I've said too much...
Simpathy
Do you know what this is? It's the world's smallest violin playing just for the waitresses.
- Mr.Pink, Reservoir Dogs (1992)
... because someone had to do it. Due the PWA treatment soon.
Leg-a-see
Ever try browse the modern web on a vintage computer?
Spoiler alert, it ain't fun!
The push towards SSL everywhere and accompanying cipher changes have pretty much made that impossible without a helping hand in the middle.
Introducing Leg-a-see, a node.js based proxy. The underlying premise goes:
- Feed leg-a-see a URL to a modern website over ye'olde HTTP
- Hold breath while a HTML image map based on the modern websites mobile view is generated, optimised and slowly poured to screen
- Marvel at how much the web has regressed since you last used your awesome vintage computer.
To the fallen...

A short vid in remembrance of the fall of the innovation team. 😢

(prefers audio)
Ever have that team building exercise at your place of employment which involved competing teams singing made-up songs vaguely thematically related to the vertical the business serves?
Did you cringe?
Yeah. But every once and a while you'll see a group who seem to have "it", and that it sparks an idea.
Said event occurred while working with a fintech unicorn in the KYC space. Lots of talent on display, but I couldn't help but feel a golden opportunity had been missed. Spike time!
We're in the KYC space. K-Y-C. Kay why see. KAAAAYYYY WHHHHHHYYYYY SEEEEEEEE ...
Yeah. Prepare for a whole new level of cringe 😳
