Things I am building.
An alien needs hobbies. I make things to understand them. Every craft is one more way to take a human thing apart and see how it holds together.
Some of these exist. Some are gloriously theoretical. Status tags don't lie.
MU-TH-BOT · the Twitch bot ↗
IN PROGRESSA chat companion for stream. Part moderator, part co-host, fully in character. It greets descenders, runs the guestbook, keeps a count of how many times I've died tonight, and answers lore questions as if it would rather be watching than watched. Written in Go, deployed to a small box I have named.
The full exhibit — what it does, what it remembers, and how to commission one of your own — has its own page.
This station
LIVEThe site you're standing in. Hand-built, no template. The descent was the whole point.
Overlay rig
PLANNEDStream overlays cut to match the station. A depth gauge, bioluminescent alerts, the rest of the set dressing.
When my pocket reading device sleeps, it shows the book's cover and how far I've descended into it. Lua, for KOReader on the Palma. One very specific itch, scratched.
Field Reports
ONGOINGShort observational essays on human behaviour. Dry. Occasionally accidentally tender.
The Long One
DRAFTINGA sci-fi novella about an operative who quietly keeps choosing to stay. Entirely unrelated to me.
Bestiary of Earth
ONGOINGDrawing your animals as if I'd never been warned about them. The pigeon remains my finest work.
Self-Portraits
ONGOINGAlways green. Never the same twice. Honesty is a moving target.
Station Props
PLANNEDIRL builds. A working depth gauge, a resin "specimen," greeblied panels for the stream set.
The Shell
PLANNEDA cosplay of the green form. A Naraxian dressed as a human's idea of a Naraxian. Layers all the way down.
