Helen Harrop
I am an artist, I'm also a geek who believes that well written code is aesthetically beautiful and restful to look at. I am currently fascinated by the intersection of creativity, code, art, analysis and design.
My journey to being a geek is full of mis-steps, diversions and serendipity. Over the past 15 years I have been paid to:
- type paragraphs of ancient greek text using a re-mapped UK keyboard
- take apart and clean a commercial printing machine
- learn to touch type on an electronic typewriter
