I'm currently building new things.

Previously, I was hired to develop bot detection circumvention tricks for Rabbit's teachable AI agent.

Before that, I was a VP at U.S. State Department-backed project Lantern, building P2P residential proxy networks to defeat internet censorship in Russia, China, and Iran.

I was the first and only "Hacker in Residence" at Consumer Reports Innovation Lab, where I worked on peer-to-peer multidimensional search for self-organizing local marketplaces.

In 2019, I was named a Rockefeller Foundation Bellagio fellow in artificial intelligence.

I won Mozilla's $50,000 award for AI.

I won a Webby for Stealing Ur Feelings, a computer vision-powered interactive film which analyzes your face to reveal the threats to our liberty posed by emotional surveillance. It premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival, exhibited at the Tate Modern, made the front page of Y Combinator's Hacker News, and was profiled by MIT, Scientific American, the Museum of the Moving Image, Engadget, CBC News, and many more.

(The project was somewhat notoriously plagiarised by the Financial Times. I wrote about that for The American Prospect.)

I helped engineer Mario Kart Live for Nintendo.

I founded Weird Tools, a browser toolkit for frame-accurate realtime video compositing which solved for floating point error before the WebCodecs API. Our tech demo acquired 1M+ users and became kind of famous for abusing scraped Instagram content — Fast Company called it "delightfully disturbing," SFist called it "strangely fascinating," and Boing Boing called it "awesome."

I invented a fake mobile app for chill dudes which confused a bunch of journalists.

I've spoken at institutions including NYU, Mila, and the Royal Society of Arts. I've appeared on the CBC, London's Resonance FM, and Italy's Rai3, among others.

I was born in Hell's Kitchen, New York City. I grew up coding DOS demos, sneaking into clubs, and avoiding school — I highly recommend it.
