I am interested in the computer as an interface between people and things, and between people and people.
This might be similar to Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), but maybe a little different.
Specifically, I am interested in virtual reality of time & communication when we share the experience of subjective time.
I developed an online class platform (iOS/Mac) based on this concept in the past.
Did almost everything from ideation, front-end development (iOS/Mac), infrastructure of video streaming (HLS+RMTP), and UI Design
Collaborated with designers and educators in high schools / universities to test the product.
I'm now working on a semi-synchronous voice communication environment based on the same concept.
Other things I made
Wikichase - Online chase tag game on the graph network of Wikipedia articles. Hop between pages by clicking links to chase / run. (TS, React, Firebase Realtime DB)
Projector of shadow using ultrasound levitated props @ UIST2022 (Unity, OpenCV)
GAN generator of ambigrams (characters that can be read differently when up-side down)
The fourth generated character can be read as both 4 (normal) and 7 (upside-down)
Minecraft server community with realistic economy (Item Stock Exchange, Gambling, etc)
Values
I would like to live life to see, learn, and experience new things.
I am optimistic about technological progress and the future, but I think this is more like faith.
