Projects
When my previous open source project, Snowflake (see below), began to see greatly increased usage during the Ukraine war and other conflicts, I knew it was time to evolve the project.
While being merely a prototype, Snowflake was an effective method to circumvent internet censorship. But a new version was required.
I founded the company Snowstorm Inc. to re-architect and re-imagine the infrastructure; to defend the future of our global internet. I have raised ~$3.5M to date. We have totally new upgraded protocols and systems incoming.
I am a self-taught concert pianist. See below for more information.
The censorship circumvention network.
Users help each other connect to the internet using temporary WebRTC micro-proxies.
I created this system many years ago, and with the help of many colleagues, integrated it into Tor as a pluggable transport, where it has since had an impact on internet freedom despite being merely a prototype.
Exhibitions
For my Bösendorfer debut, I preformed at the Vienna Konzerthaus: Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No. 2 and the Scriabin Piano Concerto, with EEG + Brainwave visualizations, with TDJ orchestra and conductor Andrej Vesel.
I performed solo piano in many cities across the USA.
