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
