I'm Geoff. I'm a software developer by trade. Taterpeel is a nickname that was given to me by the first base player on my T-ball team when I was in 2nd grade. Now that I'm older, I've recovered from the trauma of that sport. (Have you ever seen a kid strike out in T-Ball???) Fortunately, I became a little more coordinated with age.

I have eclectic interests in many aspects of maker culture, in particular hardware and electronics and even more specifically of the open source variety.
I'm interested in:
- Tools that empower the individual (see:Tools for Conviviality )
- Personal Fabrication through CNC machines
- Music and Sound
- Microcontrollers (AVRs for now)
- Human-Powered Machines
- Resilient Communities
- Personal energy production and storage
Projects:
- RepRap Prusa Mendel
- Mantis PCB Milling Machine
Ideas that have caught my eye:
- Reclaim Your Mind Terence McKenna
- Global Guerrillas - A chance encounter with a Xeni Jardin tweet about a BoingBoing interview with John Robb caused me to immedatiately take my life on a different trajectory which eventually landed me at Splat Space. (Such is life with the internet)
