Our guest this week is Star Simpson. She is an electronics designer whose greatest joy is designing objects and tools that are useful to others, which inspire and delight. Her previous work includes research on robotics and work in drones, PLIBMTTBHGATY, an event where people convene to try new programming languages, and an electronics reference card PCB designed for Octopart, now carried in the wallets of electrical engineers everywhere.

Episode 11, Side A: David Wojnarowicz, "Death, Anger, and Illusions Of Law" (Vocal 1991, Music 2020)

Our guest this week is Daniel Schaefer. Daniel is the kind of person who often finds himself in too many interesting situations to choose just a few to throw in a bio, but through his photography, his writing, and the various nonsense in his pockets, you may be able to glean just a little bit about what he brings to the table.
