About Me

My name is Bryan Knowles, and I study deontology and pragmatism in tech. I teach kids and adults how to code. My interests include satire and probabilistic graph theory.

Find code I've written on github 😼 and glitch 🎏. You can find more projects in my portfolio.

Art

In my free time I take computationally hard problems and try to reinterpret them into something generative. I pick my favorites, I find some things, and I stick them together to look like that generative output. It combines my love of found art with computer science theory.

When I have any for sale, I'll list it here. If you want to see the generative programs I'm using, I try to post about them, so check the links above.
