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

camusean

Lowering the barrier to reading in a foreign language — meeting the text where you are.

camusean is about reading literature in a language you’re still learning. The usual tools break the spell: tap-to-translate yanks you out, parallel texts let you cheat without noticing, graded readers flatten the prose.

I want the friction in the right place — enough support to keep going, not so much that you stop reading and start studying.

Status: validating. Replace this body with the real arc.

afiche

Reducing the friction of cinema discovery — finding the film worth watching tonight.

afiche is about the gap between “I want to watch something good” and actually finding it. Streaming catalogs are vast and badly indexed; recommendation feeds optimize for retention, not taste.

I’m building a quieter way in — closer to how a friend with great taste would hand you a film, than how an algorithm shoves one at you.

Status: in progress. Replace this body with the real arc — the problem, what you tried, what you learned, where it is now.
