Hi, I'm Ben Swift---I'm a [researcher]({% link research.md %}), [artist]({% link livecoding.md %}) and creative technologist, and (among other things) I lead the Cybernetic Studio at the ANU School of Cybernetics. Sometimes I write about that stuff on my [blog]({% link blog.md %}).
I care a lot about making computing a welcoming, interesting and creatively satisfying place, especially for people who don't fit the traditional picture of a "computer scientist".
If you'd like to get in touch---and please do!---you can email me at mailto:[email protected].
