Bio
Vladimir Kosma Zworykin was a Russian-American immigrant engineer who patented the technique of painting moving images on a flourescent surface by using magnetic fields to bend the paths of cathode rays. He died in 1982, one year after I was born. Today I use LCD monitors exclusively.

According to the Kiersey-Bates temperament sorter, I am (usually) an INTP.

If I were a super hero, I'd be telepathic over network connections and have super-fast hands. If I were a super villain, I'd have a forked tongue and hypnotic eyes.
