HORSEMAN IV CLOTHING
This project is my way of scratching any occasional drawing and/or design itch.
A good amount of the designs ideas are initially made using AI tools like Midjourney and then finalized or edited by me.
The website is made using the Shopify suite, and the printing is made to order via Printful. This means I don't need to hold any stock; I can focus on designing and administrating while the actual production is handled by Shopify & Printful. Pretty neat, right?
De-Muskifier
Ever since I started studying programming my friends have had a habit of giving me weird and funny ideas for side projects, and finally one of them said “I'm so sick of hearing about Elon Musk everywhere. Can you create a solution?” and thats really where this thing started.
The result is a browser extension for Firefox that replaces images and mentions of Elon Musk/Tesla/SpaceX with images of raccoons and facts about them, because why not? Not only are you freed from hearing about your least favorite billionaire - you are at the same time being given awesome images of raccoons and weird and funny facts about them. You'll have forgotten about him in no time!
A few notes about this extension:
- It replaces content by keyword search from scanning your active page.
- Sometimes it works "too well" and hides unrelated stuff. Did an article about rocket science vanish? Probably. But did it also get replaced with something wholesome about raccoons? Absolutely.
- The point isn't perfection - it's to make you stop thinking about Elon Musk and instead channel your energy into something joyful, like raccoons!
Why raccoons?
Raccoons are great! Did you see the way they carry stuff while walking? They're like little furry gremlins, who doesn't love them?
FlickPick
Moviematching powered by machine learning!
The user input is converted from a text into a number called a vector,
using something appropriately called a vectorizer.
Something similar is then done to the plotline and/or keywords of every movie in the database,
and using a type of machinelearning called Nearest Neighbors, FlickPick compares the
input vector to each movies' vector and finds the closest matches, or nearest neighbors.
Et voilà!
We have our matches.
Note:
FlickPick was created as a group assignment for my machinelearning course with a four person team.
I was responsible for creating the frontend and the actual vectorizing and machine learning parts of the project.
