Stephen Bannasch (316 ppm)

My name is Stephen Bannasch and I think kindness and curiousity are important.

Used Ruby for all sorts of projects since 2008. Also created very high performance JavaScript model-based visualizations. Recently been digging into machine learning ... which seems both fascinating and creepy. Hardware projects over the years involving sensors and microcontrollers, along with digital and analog design.

Learn Make Teach Share · A hybrid guitar-dulcimer-mandolin.Imagine designing and build an instrument from scratch in two weeks! In Early March 2015 I was in the middle of a long-term project learning to build guitars from scratch. I was doing this with a small group mentored by a good friend John Fabel. Since I already had experience making all kinds of things I also ended up making many tools and making tools to make tools.
