The two of us

Twelve years of analytics and ten of data engineering. Five of those years were spent in the same building, on different teams, and both with different lives.

Both stacks below are plotted on the same 10 axes, so the two shapes mean the same thing.

Dimple Dell Residence — interactive 3D

A walkable 3D model of the house we're building in Sandy, generated from the architect's CAD drawings rather than modeled by hand. Orbit the massing, peel the roof off, isolate a level, drag the sun across the sky — or drop into first person and walk the interior.

This very site — a print magazine in a browser. Every photograph is screened into halftone dots on a canvas at the size it is displayed, and every figure on the page is counted from a list rather than typed, so the words and the numbers cannot disagree.
