Hi! I am Alex! I take pictures, build and ride bikes, make kites, 3d model
for 3d printing, fold paper, work with wood and various other materials. I have far too
many hobbies to keep up with! This site is an attempt to keep me accountable. If you have comments or just want to say hi, please, reach out!

Hello again! March is coming to a close and I am wondering where a quarter of the year went. I helped K<3 and
H make two pies yesterday in honor of K's late grandmother! She was a baker and a maker in general. Her
home was full of her embroideries and handiwork. I hope to be surrounded by mine and K's doings as we progress
through life. What a beautiful way to live <3. Looking back, I see the lack of documentation and organization of my
works and wish I had been more thorough. So it goes. I can move forward with my intentions and work to make that a
reality in the future!
Today!! I went for a small bike ride in the suburbs on one of my flashiest bikes! I finished a kite made from skewers and
a priority mail envelope... Its flightworthiness remains to be seen..
With that: check out my biking page and my making page!

This site is now live with all its bare spots in plain view! Lately I have been
doodling and drawing with markers, taking care of my plants, finalizing this web layout,
and making a couple of scannergrams! I have been practicing
qigong sporadically, hoping to make that more consistent.
Today's Video. Not my favorite but a few of the moves I really enjoyed.
Click around and explore a little! Intros are a rough draft... more posts to come!!
