Work

Things I've built, told first-person. Skim the summary, read on if it pulls you.

benejotad

This site — a personal hub where the writing, the trips, and the things I build all share one voice.

benejotad is the page you’re reading. The premise is that everything I make — the notes, the trips, the side projects — is really one thing seen from different angles, so the site is built as a single tagged, linked collection rather than a stack of separate templates. Every new view is a query over the same spine; the connections between pieces are the point, not a footnote.

It’s an exercise in friction-reduction turned on myself: instead of scattering across a portfolio, a blog, and a few dead profiles, there’s one voice and one place where they all interconnect. The build is deliberately spare — exposed grid, monospace, no accent color — so the work stays the loudest thing on the page.

Status: In active development — this site, evolving in public.

camusean

A voice companion for reading in a foreign language — say a word aloud, get just enough to keep going.

camusean is about reading literature in a language you’re still learning, without breaking the spell. The usual tools pull you out of the page: tap-to-translate hijacks your attention, parallel texts let you cheat without noticing, graded readers flatten the prose until it’s no longer the book.

camusean moves the lookup to your voice. You’re reading; you hit a word you don’t know; you say it aloud, and it hands back just enough — the meaning, maybe the root — without your eyes leaving the line. Voice keeps you in the text.

The whole bet is putting the friction in the right place: enough support to keep reading, not so much that you stop reading and start studying.

afiche

What's actually playing on Buenos Aires screens tonight — cinema listings, filtered for taste.

afiche answers a small, stubborn question: what’s playing in Buenos Aires cinemas right now, and which of it is worth the trip? The city’s listings live scattered across a dozen theatre sites, each with its own bad calendar — so the real friction isn’t choosing a film, it’s just finding out what’s on before you give up and stream something at home.

afiche pulls the screens of Buenos Aires into one place and treats them like a feed worth reading: what’s showing, where, and when. The aim is for it to feel closer to a friend with great taste telling you “there’s something worth seeing this week” than to a showtimes database.
