I’m a product builder and tinkerer who loves turning ideas into real things — whether it’s a piece of software, a 3D-printed project, or a half-baked invention in my workshop. Feel free to email me or check out what I’m up to right now. I’ve spent my career in tech working in both product and engineering leadership roles, so connect with me on LinkedIn if you’d like to chat. ### Say Thanks If you liked something I made or blogged about, you can say thanks by buying me a coffee.

Updated June 13, 2025

Welcome. I'm Joe Crawford. I love the web. I live in San Diego, California. Links to me on other websites, my email address, my phone number, ways to get in touch, are here. Everybody's carrying around a web browser in their pocket. _Go make a web page!_ And, no, fooling, please sign my guestbook. You _were_ here. CSS Battles on YouTube ---------------------- Want to watch me write code to do the daily targets on CSSBattle.dev ? You are in luck. And I wrote about it: 110 Hours of CSS Battle. Here are the latest battles I've recorded. * CSSBattle for JUNE 13 (2025) * CSSBattle for JUNE 12 (2025) * CSSBattle for JUNE 11 (2025) * CSSBattle for JUNE 10 (2025) * CSSBattle for JUNE 9 (2025) _artlung.com/cssbattles/_ Affirmations Bot ---------------- I've experimented with several social media bots over the years. The latest is Affirmations Bot and it sends out affirmations daily to Mastodon (RSS Feed) and Bluesky. I've collected many over the years from support groups, books, and some I've written myself. Recently posted affirmations: * Tell yourself how well you are doing with every little thing. #affirmation (2025-06-12) * I will not beat myself up today. I will remind myself that the learning curve is never straight. #affirmation (2025-06-11) * I am bathed in the sunlight of the spirit. #affirmation (2025-06-11) * I live my life with a lens of kindness. #affirmation (2025-06-10) * Because of my daily acts of kindness, I am filled with joy. #affirmation (2025-06-09) * I am joyful. #affirmation (2025-06-08) The IndieWeb blog carnival I hosted on the theme of affirmations in February 2025 had excellent participation. _Read more blogs!_ Comics ------ I've always drawn, but I've only been making comics for the web for a few years. I find it really satisfying to start with an idea and follow it through to completion. * ā€œUSE IT.ā€ (2025-01-24) * I hate billionaire Nazis. (2025-01-22) * ā€œspite swimming | sanity swimmingā€ (one-sheet) (2024-11-25) * ā€œOur Lady of the Cloudā€ (2024-11-19) * ā€œOnce upon a time… in AztlĆ”nā€ (2024-11-15) * ā€œSILENCEā€ (2024-11-13) * ā€œALTERNATIVE FUTURESā€ (2024-11-13) * Surrounded. Diary #webcomic (2023-07-31) * ā€œGEMINIā€ (2023-06-21) * spite swimming | sanity swimming (2022 – 2023) (2023-06-17) _artlung.com/comics/_ Front End Study Hall -------------------- I host an open forum for learning CSS & HTML called Front End Study Hall under the aegis of the IndieWeb. If CSS and HTML are of interest to you, and you like to explore and learn and experiment, you are welcome to join us. Meetings are held on Zoom. * Front End Study Hall #030 _in 4 days_ * Front End Study Hall #029 _Jun 3, 2025_ * Front End Study Hall #028 _May 20, 2025_ * Front End Study Hall #027 _May 8, 2025_ * Front End Study Hall #026 _Apr 24, 2025_ _View my IndieWeb profile which is mirrored here._ WordPress --------- I've used WordPress since it was b2. Much of this site—_but not this page_—is powered by WordPress using a custom theme and plugins that I've written. In 2010 I created a plugin—Open Graph Protocol Tools—still in the WordPress plugin repository. I've enjoyed every WordPress win and suffered every WordPress indignity. I've debugged shortcodes, worked with child themes, used Multisite. Woocommerce, and created themes from scratch. I've been gratified to help people migrate from Blogger FTP to WordPress, and Import Instagram photos to WordPress. And I've tackled the nastiest malware infestations and fixed the most tedious Mojibake problems. Many people dislike WordPress. I like it. (Also, the WordPress CLI is among my favorite development tools). ArtLung Lab ----------- _The Lab_ started as a part of this website. I post experiments in web programming there. Here are the latest. Ever since I've had a web page I have tinkered with HTML. The Lab lab.artlung.com (RSS Feed) collects experiments and explainers I've made over the years. The source code for the site is available on GitHub: artlung/lab.artlung.com. When I learn something new or find some interesting oddity about the web, I will create a page for it on the lab. I left it fallow for many years but returned to it with a passion in 2024. * Kanban Task Board in CSS Grid (2025-06-04) * Ventcheck, a Twitter bot (2025-05-16) * Safari Mailto Converter (2025-05-15) * Mid-air footer (2025-03-06) * Gettysburg Address in HTML. Interactive. (2025-02-21) _lab.artlung.com_ Social Media ------------ I'm active on a few different platforms. Lately I'm posting more to Mastodon and Bluesky and less on Instagram. I was once a very active user of Twitter (now X), but avoid it now. _More links here_. Here are a few recent posts from Mastodon. * The prominence of Voltes V in the episode about Filipino artists in the new series on Netflix called ā€œI Love Filipinoā€ makes me very happy. (2025-06-12) * There is no reason to trust or respect anyone in the Executive Branch in 2025. I am proud of my state California, and ashamed of this lawless President and his lawless team. (2025-06-12) * OB yesterday included some nice waves and good company in the water. Overcast. #SanDiego #Beach #Panorama (2025-06-12) * it was a terrific meeting today. Much thoughtful conversation and many terrific links shared and ideas shared. Thanks to all who participated today! The etherpad has been archived at https://indieweb.org/events/2025-06-11\-hwc-europe #IndieWeb (2025-06-12) * Any Beach Boys mix that gives you joy I won't argue with even if you put lesser works on it. Here's one of mine. https://artlung.com/mixtapes/beachboysessence (2025-06-11) * I’m remembering how much I cried in 2004 listening to the finally realized and released SMILE record from Brian Wilson. As profound an American work of art as I can imagine. And from a composer who survived profoundly calamitous circumstances. (2025-06-11) Smorgasborg ----------- This is similar to the Lab, but for stranger, goofier, and (mostly) non-technical items which I have found useful on the internet. * Maarva Andor Has A Posse (2025-04-26) * IndieWeb Sickos (2025-04-10) * Guru Meditation (2025-03-15) * This Man Wants To Clean Your Clothes (Velvet Touch Dry Cleaners & Laundry) Pacific Beach, San Diego California (2025-02-23) * Illinois State of the State Address, 2025 by Governor J.B. Pritzker (2025-02-19) _smorgasborg.artlung.com_ Likes ----- Links which I _Like_, recently (RSS). Many of which I have sent webmentions to. * Joe Crawford liked: Decorative text within HTML by Terence Eden (2025-06-09) * Joe Crawford liked: A handy note for future-me or any other WordPress plugin developers by gRegor Love (2025-06-09) * Joe Crawford liked: Half Dream, Half Reality: An Interview with Lynda Barry by Southwest Review : > The idea is that drawing can help you write, and writing can help you draw, and you figure out things that you missed the first time around. (2025-06-09) * Joe Crawford liked: how personal is my personal website? by Elly Loel : > as much as i like the idea of being open about everything, i think the reality of it in the context of a personal website is scarier than i thought it would be. (2025-06-06) * Joe Crawford liked: IndieWeb Movie Club: June 2025 by Jo (2025-06-06) * Joe Crawford liked: Discovery by Morgan (SansGuidon) (2025-06-03) _artlung.com/likes/_ Blogging -------- I'm a blogger. artlung.com/blog (RSS Feed), I appreciate the power of a blog. Blogging has inspired books and movies. Blogging has brought people tv careers, political power. Blogging got me on the radio, twice. It also has connected me with people who became life-long friends. _Some recent posts:_ * Checkpoint: June Gloom (2025-06-09) * On Los Angeles (2025-06-09) * Pier adventures continue (2025-06-07) * ā€œšŸ“£ YouTube removed your contentā€ (A Google Mystery) (2025-06-02) * 18th Anniversary on Meetup (2025-06-02) * 30 May / Pacific Beach (2025-05-30) * OB / 28 May (2025-05-29) * Latest Shutdown (2025-05-27) Blog Archives 2001 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2002 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2003 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2004 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2005 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2006 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2007 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2008 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2009 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2010 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2011 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2012 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2013 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2014 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2015 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2016 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2017 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2018 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2019 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2020 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2021 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2022 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2023 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2024 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2025 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 Tag Cloud Blog of the .Day ---------------- Blog of the .Day was created by James. I am now its steward. Every day, a different user-submitted blog is highlighted at random. Do you have a blog? Blog of the day is on GitHub: artlung/blogofthe.day. If GitHub pull requests and editing JSON intimidate you, know that there are other ways to submit your indie blog. The blog of the day is www.cboxes.icu - A photography blog. The site maintained with Eleventy and hosted on Netlify. Tilde Club & HTML 2.0 --------------------- tilde.club/~artlung/ is "retro." It is a single page site. I assure that the code validates to the HTML 2.0 DOCTYPE. That means `CLASS` or `ID` attributes are not allowed. That deprecated 1990s version of HTML still allows for a readable, fairly attractive page. That code is available on GitHub: artlung/artlung-tilde-club . Blog Headers (2000—) For as long as I've been blogging I've been making visually distinct blog headers out of my own photos, drawings, typography, quotes, and other artwork. 800x600 pixel wide CRT screens were the norm when I started making these using image-and-table sliced layouts. I have kept and adapted them for the modern web and in so doing sharpened my skills in CSS. View all the headers _over here_ . Toy Robots _a collection_ ------------------------- 1.

Hi, I'm Fred Hohman ------------------- I'm a Research Scientist at Apple I design and develop interactive interfaces to help people **understand machine learning models** and data-driven systems. Besides building tools, I also create **data visualizations** and write interactive articles to simply communicate complex ideas. I received my PhD from Georgia Tech where I worked with Polo Chau and Alex Endert. My dissertation on interactive interfaces for interpretability won the _ACM SIGCHI Outstanding Dissertation Award_ and was supported by a _NASA Space Technology Research Fellowship_. I have collaborated with designers, developers, artists, and scientists while working at Apple, Microsoft Research, NASA Jet Propulsion Lab, and Pacific Northwest National Lab. Latest research for fans of human-computer interaction, data visualization, and machine learning. Guidance and best practices to help designers and developers create great experience for any Apple platform. My dissertation contributed interactive interfaces to enable machine learning interpretability at scale and for everyone. Enhanced reading experiences that demonstrate what's possible when dynamic media are effectively combined. A born-digital, experimental magazine dedicated to showcasing the expository power of the web.

Works in progress ----------------- I haven’t published yet—that’s coming soon—but I’ve written a bunch of short fiction and have a couple novellas in the pipe. Briarcliff ---------- `Working title // Final draft` A moody horror short about one man’s desperate sacrifice to a prehistoric supernatural force. This piece is an experiment in narrative by elision, drawing inspiration from video games’ heavy use of environmental storytelling. Crossroads ---------- `Working title // In progress` A hopecore novella about a down-on-her-luck artist who takes a job at a supernatural boutique. The shop is a community for outcasts: an immortal, curmudgeonly bookseller; a neurotic fire sprite; a pair of klutzy sibling witches; and one exhausted manager somehow holding it all together, despite the sins of the shop’s demonic angel investor. The vibes are cozy, and our artist finds family and community there, but Crossroads also holds a secret—_we don’t talk about the hellmouth in the basement_—and that secret could threaten everything. The Blizzard ------------ `Working title // In progress` Shiloh loved nothing more than the thrill of the open road, but the sirens giving chase from behind and the black blizzard looming ahead were a bit more thrilling than she’d bargained for. The Deep -------- `Working title // Temporarily shelved` A cosmic horror story about a deep sea salvage dive that encounters a threat beyond human understanding, and a secret organization that will do anything to keep that threat hidden. This piece is a claustrophobic katabasis into the deep, filled with interpersonal tension, existential dread, and even (somehow) malevolent mathematics. Tribute ------- `Working title // In Progress` A grim supernatural flash in which a traitor meets his diabolical fate. This piece was written for an upcoming live reading.
