update 6/2/2024: this was imported from a blog I kept on the University of Cincinnati home page service that they offered to students. Its’ been removed now, how rude, but lucky for me the web archive captured a single snapshot.
video is gone now, but there are a bunch of others on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJ5pWbuYuys

Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.
