In the past few years I've managed to accumulate a lot of little projects
that tend to sit around on various servers and rarely see the light of
day. I've compiled a list of a bunch of them here to show them off a little.
Not everything below has a link to anything useful. Some stuff I haven't
had a chance to get into an easily downloadable form. I'll add them as
I get my act together.
Java Programs
I do a fair amount of Java Programming in my spare time. Here's some
of my more completed projects.
- Pepys (SourceForge
page)
- This is a library built around the LiveJournal protocol. My goal was
to provide a back-end for anyone else who wanted to write a GUI , though
I did end up writing a Swing
front-end myself (you can use test:test to log in and see it work).
Gordon Christie also wrote a GUI
using the AWT.
- MP3 Streamer
- This started off as a very simple program that just read in .mp3 files
and spit them out as fast as it could over http. The network aspects
of it haven't changed any, but I did add some new features, the details
of which currently slip my mind.
- Fractal Music
- This was my final project for my Pure Math 370 course on Chaos and
Fractals. It's a very basic overview of some of the ideas behind
fractal music, and contains a number of Java applet demonstrations.
The applets aren't particularly fancy, but I was pleased with my use
of dynamic class loading to have the same GUI work with different music
generators.
- JavaMail Email Client
- A work in progress. I was desperate for some coding work to do, so
I started this. Nothing presentable at the moment, but I thought I'd
mention it here.
Musical Compositions
- Classic John Price Five MIDI Files
- Back in highschool my friend Tim and I formed a "band" called
the "John Price Five" and composed a number of catchy tunes
together. Actually, catchy is probably not the right word, but here
they are. Yes, they are intended to sound as stupid as they do.
Written Works
- Two Essays on Kant (.ps or .pdf)
- These two short essays composed my final exam for my Ethics course.
They are by no means exhaustively researched and are in fact entirely
based on what I learned in lectures. What I'm saying here is that if
you're a Kant expert and disagree with what I'm saying, I'm not going
to argue with you. I've created a .pdf version of the document now,
so you can view it using Adobe Acrobat. The .ps version is still available
and looks much better, if you've got a viewer to read it.
