Join me for a glimpse into my smart home with this internet of things-inspired playlist of alternative, indie, and post-punk songs with accompanying liner notes.

Starting a blog has been on my New Year’s resolution list for probably the past four years. Start writing again. Publish something on the internet. I think I was 15 or 16 when I taught myself HTML, found some free web hosting, and published my own “journal” for years. This early experience sparked my deep interest in how humans interact with the internet and how the internet helps humans interact/communicate with each other (and now their things).
