Curiosity, code, and the notes between

Following curiosity past the first spark.

This is my personal workshop for following interesting ideas before they fade into another saved bookmark. I write to understand the questions behind the work, and I experiment to make the technical side visible.

The idea

Two ways to record what I am learning.

Some ideas need reflection. Others need a small working experiment. I split this site into a blog and a lab because AI-assisted development makes it easier to turn curiosity into code, but the code is not the whole story. I also want to preserve why I built something, what I was trying to understand, what surprised me, and what I learned.

01

Blog

The thinking behind the work: motivation, tradeoffs, questions, and lessons.

02

Lab

The technical shape of the work: experiments, demos, setup notes, and rough edges.
