The site was built with Astro, Tailwind CSS, and patient, dedicated coding help from Claude.

It's hosted on Cloudflare, through GitHub.

The site is typeset in Barlow Condensed/Hanken Grotesk.

The photographs throughout the site are my own, unless otherwise credited.

The writing, in academic papers, essays, blog posts, and in every corner of the site, is my own, without the assistance of AI. For now at least, I maintain that the act of thinking, the exploration of ideas, the conceptual clarity, should and must be developed through the process of writing by my human mind.
