From London Hackspace Wiki
Hi, I'm Alexandre Coninx, aka Endy. EndyFourbe on IRC. endy at viletfourbe dot org by mail.
Stuff I want to do at the hackspace
- An air muscle powered exoskeleton
- Build my own laptop: Project:DIY_Laptop
- Some kind of spin-off: Project:Fuel_cell_laptop
- NFC hacking
- (More) beer brewing
Stuff I'm interested in
- Autonomous robotics, bioinspired artificial intelligence (well that's actually my job)
- Assistive robotics, exoskeletons, etc. (not much experience with this but want to explore) Wearable interfaces, too.
- Computer security in general
- Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies
- NFC and contactless technology
- Mind hacking and neurohacking (BMI and various applied psycho/neuroscience)
- Philosophy of mind, constructivism, transhumanism
- 3D printing and home fabbing (no real experience but want to learn/hack)
- Homebrewing and more generally cooking
Stuff I know about (and can give a hand / teach)
- Linux debian (10 years experience, not a professional sysadmin but can probably make about anything work)
- Networking (the whole tcp/ip/ethernet stuff, routing protocols, DNS system, etc.)
- Programming (Mostly C, C++, Python, PHP, Urbi)
- Machine learning, autonomous behaviors, bioinspired AI, sensorimotor theories. Some computer vision too
- Some electronics (OK with a soldering iron, already used a SMT placement machine & reflow oven a few times)
- Some computational neuroscience (if anyone cares)
- Beer brewing (not as good as our resident brewers)
- Some things on NFC/RFID hacking
- Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies (how they work, why you should be interested, how to use it safely)
Stuff I want to learn at the space
- Using the wonderful tools of the hackspace, especially
- Metal working tools
- 3D printer
- Laser cutter
- CAD and mechanical engineering in general
- Lockpicking ?
- Anything else that fits my interests or is useful for my projects, really
