Loathing the twinkling world, one line of code at a time..

Jim Gilsinan IV

And when the strife is fierce,
the warfare long,
Steals on the ear
the distant triumph song,
and hearts are brave again,
and arms are strong!

William W. How
"For All the Saints"


Overview

Harvard Shield The Gilsinan corpus has finally graduated from Harvard College, where it flourished for a brief, shining moment near Dunster House. The Gilsinan corpus never thought it would see the day it would be working for Microsoft, where it is currently having the time of its life, but stranger things have happened. Not many, but some. To atone, I will insist that fellow Celts call me Harpo on prime number dated Wednesdays.

Fun With Academics

My Senior Thesis ("Yong Jiu Fa Yin: A Simple Mandarin Tone Recognizer") is somewhat silly. Read about it at here. Karen and I did a Random Dot Stereogram Raytracer for our CS175 final project. Eye candy: 3d stereograms here. For my project in Islam class, I fired up Adobe After Effects and forced myself to learn how to use it. The result is "Allah". Large.

Hobbies

I am part of a breed that doesn't really exist, for not only am I a Celtic Bard of the old school of Taliesin and Myrddin and an organist of the old school of Franck and Widor, but I am an avid, and indeed one might say the fan of that great gang of Raccoons created by Kevin Gillis. Thus: The UnOfficial Raccoons Home Page. I also have a fondness for brewing (and, needless to say, drinking) beer and own a 1982 DeLorean DMC-12.
