My method is DIY and dirty: Git project folders generally sorted by language, in Dropbox for availability across computers. It's not perfect when I have projects that span more than one language, so I'm open to new ideas! Do symbolic links work in Dropbox? Backups live across a couple different pieces of external media for resilience.

I've been mulling on this for a day now. I have some concerns. I am not trying to be rude by asking this, but I think it bears consideration: Do you think that exposing an API to your practice is the means by which "technical people" can access art? Do you think it is the only means?

You make some claims about the "divide" between art and engineering. By inserting yourself as a mediator between these two fields, do you think you are reconciling these worlds? Because to me it seems like you are capitalizing on this difference instead of actually attempting to stitch the rift together. By manipulating liminal markets, you are closely mimicking the behavior of tech startups. Is this in the interest of your art, or just your practice?

I'd say it falls into "geometric sans-serif" because of its adherence to primitive shapes and near-lack of adornment.
