Welcome to my github homepage

My name is Stef and I am a sociologist, market research professional and occasionally I try to be technologically creative. Thank you for visiting my page and I hope you enjoy my projects.

A series of sketches, some interactive, made in p5 during ITP Camp 2020.

Designed to delight and tickle the senses.

"A gift of affirmation"— a shared, interactive webpage for my fellow learners in Digital Love Languages, School of Poetic Computation in Spring 2020.

This webpage is best experienced with a group of people sharing their thoughts at the same time to make the tree "grow".

Here's a short blog on the process of conceptualizing and making "A gift of affirmation", and some reflections on learning.

An endless poem based on a series of interviews about migration.

Poem is machine generated using a number of natural language processing techniques.

A virtual pet that snores and purrs, squeals when disturbed (too much petting or loud noises). You might like to keep it open in your browser for companionship.

Apologies to iPhone/iPad users but these devices seem to block this page's sound from loading and I haven't found a way around it yet.

Sometimes I write about things and put it on Medium.
