I’m Simon Sarris. I live in Nashua, New Hampshire. I like software and making things.

These days I spend a lot of time working with and thinking about HTML5 Canvas and JavaScript. I write tutorials and spend a fair amount of time on StackOverflow trying to help where I can. I’ve answered more than 10% of all Canvas questions ever asked on StackOverflow, which is an impressive way of saying I have poor time management skills.

I attended Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in Troy, NY, where I recieved a Bachelor’s in Computer Science and Philosophy. My formal education is finished for now but I will always consider myself a student. I do a lot of reading, writing, photography, watching films, stretching, and folding paper into cranes. I collect words and love wordplay.

I began this site in an effort to force myself to write more and write more publicly, as well as to have a home for any current (programming or art) projects.

P probably does not equal NP.
