What I'm working on
Here's everything I'm working on. Some of it is already being built. A lot of it is just getting started, and I want to build it together with other people.
Aethon, Project OS and the Bethlehem projects are parts of one mission: bringing humanity together and exploring the universe.
Most of it comes from one hope: systems that help people enjoy life, waste less, share resources and find new opportunities. Everything here is for the world and its people, and every project would recycle, compost and reuse. It starts in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, because that's where I am. I want to start small, learn what works and build every project to be reused anywhere in the world.
Being on this list doesn't mean a project is funded or built yet. Naming a school, group or place doesn't mean they're involved.
