Plate I
The Amalfi Archive
Video seriesIn production
A video series about the future, built from 19th-century paintings of my own coast. Each episode restores one painting, lets it move, and uses it to explain one thing that is about to change — in medicine, in machines, or in both. The old masters carried this coast across Europe on canvas; the least I can do is carry it forward.

Plate II
Faro
PWALive
A Morse-code trainer built like a lighthouse keeper's apprenticeship: you learn by receiving light, slowly, until the signal stops being noise and becomes a language. It works offline, weighs almost nothing, and asks nothing of you — no account, no tracking, just the lamp.

Off-Season
Self-hostedLive
What the coast does in winter. A small platform I run end to end on my own server — the database, the backups, the deploys, the mistakes. Renting convenience is easy; owning the whole stack, blame included, is how you actually learn what the machine is doing.

Plate IV
Calco
Chrome extensionv0.1
A Chrome extension that takes a plaster cast of any interface component — markup, styles, geometry — ready to study and rebuild. Named after the casts sculptors take before they dare to carve. Most of design is learned by tracing the masters; Calco just admits it.
