Hi! I work on the Tangram engine at Mapzen. I make maps and demos and tools and write tests and docs and blog posts. Talk to me about:

surprising flavors - worst hiding places - cool bugs and frogs - weird shadows - secret doors and levers - the after party - geometry packing problems - your favorite very old book - ferns and moss - tetrahedrons - things which might be metaphors - ambiguity - odd patterns - industrial textile design - unusually funny faces you can make - complex inter-dependence - emergent properties - happy accidents
