I make things, take photographs, and keep a record of both. This is the archive — projects, activities and pictures, gathered slowly and kept with care.

About


Hello — I'm Kyle. I make things: some of them software, some of them photographs, a few of them printed and bound by hand. This site is where they are kept, along with notes from the places and events I've been part of.
