I study how languages and cultures evolve. Primarily with phylogenies and other assorted computational methods. Based at @Biology_UoA. Never met a language phylogeny or a cultural phylogeny I didn't like. #phylolinguistics
I got bored with the tired old tree visualisations you see everywhere and asked an AI to make me an exciting one.

Here is the Uto-Aztecan language phylogeny visualised in what it calls "space jellyfish" mode.
