Hi, I’m Chris

I make websites and things. Lately, I’ve been experimenting a lot with Large Language Models (colloquially known as AI) to test their capabilities and to help make my job and D&D Dungeon Mastering life easier. Feel free to click around to learn more about stuff I like to do and/or am working on.

  • saul williams / post-vasectomy / possible future blogproject

    i blogged yesterday about saul williams’ new album, but as trent says on nin.com, unlike radiohead, his is not a household name (yet).  saul williams is an amazing black performance poet.  he’s possibly best known for his anti-bush rant, “not in my name” or, alternately, he was in the independent film slam (or so wikipedia…

  • music in the digital revolution / web design project / virtual hosts / wish lists

    at the bottom of my site you will see a new flash widget thing.  it’s a promo for the new Saul Williams album which was done with Trent Reznor and is supposedly the next chapter in the Year Zero saga.  or at least supplementary material.  Trent said a couple weeks ago on his blog that…

  • another reason the dmv is the ninth circle of hell

    ok, so this would have been better with the visual, but, as it turns out, while i wasn’t looking (read: while it’s been sitting on the desk, not plugged in, acting as a malformed and warped shelf for junk), my scanner up and died.  dead, no pulse, doa, unliving, dead dead dead.  so.  you’ll have…

  • omfg boycott the new $1 coin

    ok, so i get a lot of forwards from my biomom. some are cute and worth reading and passing on, some are religious and worth deleting, some are racist and not worth my time, but tick me off anyway, and some are morally outraged at one thing or another. but regardless, i read them all,…

  • msff

    i’ve added a couple hacks to the site to dissuade viewers from using internet explorer, including a javascript-powered microsoft-free weekend.  back in the early 00’s, microsoft-free friday was a thing.  this was around when firefox was just starting to gain momentum.  there were a couple of ways of implementing msff — one was an apache…

  • bionic woman

    so we’ve been watching the new bionic woman series. why? two words: katee sackhoff. other than that, it’s yet another remake of an old tv show. since battlestar galactica there’s been — that i know of — dr. who (which would have been fantastic were it not for the fact that the doctor couldn’t be…

  • new gallery

    i completely redid my gallery page on jazzsequence. rather than using a coppermine php gallery you login to, i made it more generic and homemade but probably more accessible and much easier to add pictures to (since i pretty much just dump them where i would normally and the gallery will see the new pictures…

  • lilah, cont’d

    upped some new pics of lilah to flickr…god i love our new tripod… http://www.flickr.com/photos/jazzs3quence/tags/lilah/

  • lilah amelia

    …is here. she was born at 3:09am this morning after we arrived at the birth center at ~1:20am.  erin pushed all of about 40 minutes which was longer than it would have otherwise been because lilah had her cord wrapped around her a couple times. lilah weighed 8lbs. 8oz. and measured 20″.  not only is…

  • the new site

    i’m taking a break until the baby comes, which could be any day/hour/minute/second now. the new site i did isn’t quite live yet — they need to figure out the dns routing stuff cuz they already had an existing domain — but you can take a sneak peak. on a somewhat related note, i’ve taken…
