brainwagon (reborn)

Welcome to the site of Mark VandeWettering.

I spent 33 years at Pixar Animation Studios, with credits from Toy Story to Elemental, and over three decades at the Chabot Telescope Makers' Workshop in Oakland, California, teaching people to grind their own telescope mirrors. I write here about telescope making, woodworking, radio, and whatever I am building this week. My resume is here.

The blog is now generated by a script which I wrote using Google's Antigravity CLI, and which is taking advantage of Google's Open Knowledge Format to store posts.

In any case, if you are reading this and have any comments or questions, feel free to send me an email and I'll try to respond. My goal is to eventually write up a more complete HOWTO on how I created this.
