Things I've Made for Myself That Others Might Find Useful

These are the 2am ideas and experiments that turned into toys and tinkerings for all. They run the gamut from mathematical to spiritual, from visual to musical, and dimensions in between. Enjoy!

AI · assistant

TextFigaro

TextFigaro brings the power of AI to your fingertips through simple text messaging—no apps, no downloads, just conversation.

wellness · digital

Body Love Journal

Companion to the Rosebud Woman philosophy. A space for reflection, gratitude, and embodied awareness.

productivity · browser

Tab Race

A Chrome extension that brings sanity to tab chaos. See what you actually use, protect what matters, and close the rest without guilt.

spiritual · divination

E-Ching

Three-coin casting with physics-based animations, all 64 hexagrams with Wilhelm/Baynes translations, changing line interpretations, and a journal to track consultations.

marketing · ai

Like Grammarly for ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. Get suggestions as you type to write prompts that actually work.

data · interactive

OlogiesOlogy

Dive into episodes, topics, and connections across hundreds of -ologies from Alie Ward's award-winning podcast.

visual · interactive

Chromaflow

Seven dimensions of control: color cycling, mirror symmetry, fractal zoom, particle fields. What started as therapeutic VR became a pocket-sized visual toy.

audio · wellness

Resonance

Select a chakra, get the corresponding Solfeggio frequency with binaural beats. Add a breathing pacer. Designed for headphones.

optical · meditative

Hypnotic

Fraser spirals that aren't spirals. Peripheral drift that moves when you're not looking. Moiré waves, breathing grids, infinite tunnels.

physics · simulation

Orbital

The three-body problem is famously unsolvable—no equation can predict where three gravitational bodies will end up. But you can simulate it. Drag masses around, give them velocity, watch chaos unfold.

generative · visual

Laser Studio

Design beam patterns, set up mirrors and splitters, adjust colors and intensity. Remember laser shows at planetariums? This is that, anywhere.

These started as curiosities. If something here resonates, I'd love to hear about it.
