Welcome to liquidbrain.net! I'm Kai Williams, and I'm interested in the things I've written about. And some other stuff too, of course.

In the past, I studied math music at college, improved my programming at the Recurse Center, and was a MATS scholar with Francis Rhys Ward. I'm now a journalist through the Tarbell Fellowship.
