I am currently building RewindOS a cultural analytics platform that cuts through hype to measure what media actually does, not what people claim it means.
"Technology should serve communities, not the other way around. From sci-fi forums to gaming communities, I've seen how media creates lasting bonds between people. I build platforms that honor these connections - preserving digital culture while empowering the communities that create it."
🤝 Available for open source and paid collaborations for television data projects
🎤 Interested in speaking about digital community dynamics and preservation ethics
