It's #BandcampFriday, and there's no better time to support musicians. My new album 'North' is out now. I wrote and performed everything on the album and I would love you to have a listen for free. It's also streaming on all platforms.

🚀 Job alert for ML researchers who love "impossible" problems:

Detect inner speech from EEG signals. No labels. Lots of noise.

Standard methods failed. We will invent something new.
