I've been in the video games industry for going on 30 years (mostly) as a thoroughly average programmer. For the past 12+ years I’ve focused on pretty much every aspect of Augmented Reality. I've been very lucky.

Loves: #RetroGames, current games, #TheMuppets, classic simpsons quotes, #MST3k & #RiffTrax, #FilmNoir, #Philosophy, #TheKLF, #Pinball, #TwinPeaks and generally trying to pretend I understand things. #ActuallyAutistic
