I am an infrequent contributor to GIMP mainly in the plugin machinery (ScriptFu and Python and GObject Introspection.) Several of my repositories test GIMP plugin machinery.
I am the maintainer for the Resynthesizer plugin for GIMP. Also see resynthesizerJulia, elucidating and generalizing the algorithm to many dimensions.
I have a masters degree in computer science and have worked in industry.
I also make electronics. I create solar-powered, Calder art mobiles and chimes. See my online gallery
I also am proficient in embedded systems, mostly ultra-low power systems and networks, i.e. IOT. Some repositories are for Nordic radios, Bluetooth, Texas Instrument MSP430, and energy harvesting chips.
