| Big List O'
Ideas |
All the ideas I've had that I felt
like writing down for the past ~ 8 years. Some of them
could be practical inventions and are "just" waiting for
that 95% perspiration to bring them to fruition, some
are ideas for science fiction, and some are simple
observations.

My MEng thesis at
MIT,
Recognizing Actions using Embodiment and
Empathy. It won the 1st Place
2014 Charles
and Jennifer Johnson Thesis Award for best EE/CS
MEng thesis! CORTEX is an exploration of
embodied cognition, the idea that our intelligence is
deeply connected to our bodies and experience of the
world. In the thesis, I teach a simulated worm how to
recognize other worms performing various actions like
wiggling and curling by giving it a sense of empathy:
the worm imagines what it would feel like to be the
other worm, and then recognizes the actions based on its
own previous experience. All code and text for the

Just by buying and rearranging certain items and
pressing certain buttons in Pokémon Yellow, you
can get the game into a state where you can completely
reprogram it from the inside. It's the first hack of its
kind, and it won tasvideos.com's
2012 Gameboy TAS of the year
and 2012
Glitchy TAS of the year.
