I am a software developer with 24 years of experience in front and backend web platforms. I’ve self-taught everything I know and currently run the front-end publishing pipelines for a major musical instrument manufacturer.

In 2016, I rediscovered my childhood passion for painting and began producing music. I spent the year learning music production, guitar, and various painting techniques. Over the past 8 years, I’ve created over 300 paintings, written, performed, recorded, and produced over 500 original songs, and released two full-length studio albums with a third on the way.

This is like 10% ish of my paintings I’ve done in the last 8 years. You can view more of my work at https://iwas.gallery and https://instagram.com/iffywisdom

 

I’ve put in the grind for 8 years. I’ve earned my 12k+ hours by always creating before and after work nearly every day for the past 8 years. I’ve done it all by way of applying Creative constraint. I even made a songwriting game called “Under the Influence” teaching creative constraint for songwriters, and it’s had really positive feedback.

By day, I work at one of the largest manufacturers of Musical Instruments overseeing the development and content published to our Front-End.

After work you’ll usually find me making music, painting, or as of this writing, obsessing over creating the universe and games that make up the Astral Assemblage Multiverse.

I live near Nashville, Tennessee with a cat named Binks and a sweet puppers named Wookie.

About Digital Assembly Theory

This wild little ride began with the creation of my gaming company. I needed galaxies for my universe, and DMT seemed like a good fit, but it had some problems. People can’t see the experience in their wallet. Teachability and tooling being the other. The arrow of time and the ability to keep it deterministic was also missing for my needs.

DAT was created to bridge those gaps and address the need to have a teachable framework with actual tooling, on-chain visibility, and authentication. I needed a framework that outlines how my Universe was built so that some day other builders can contribute, customize and create with them as they see fit.

So, credit where it’s due:
Assembly Theory – @Sara_Imari and @LeeCronin 😍
Bitmap Theory – @Blockamoto 💐
Digital Matter Theory – @TheBlockRunner 💐
M-Theory – Edward Witten, I believe.
