Hi, I’m Liz. I’m a programmer, an essayist, and a Twitter shitposter. This is my personal website: things I’ve made, things I’ve written, and pictures of me.

I post on Twitter almost every day, about AI, gender, rationality, and whatever else is on my mind.

To message me, use Telegram or Discord. My Twitter DMs are open too. It’s in Almaty right now.

Things I made

Skin Deep

Art, 2026
Content warning: nudity

An infinitely zoomable photomosaic made of about 15,000 softcore photos. Every picture is made of smaller pictures, and you can keep zooming forever.

A dark circuit editor showing a ripple counter wired from logic gates

diycpu

Tech demo, 2026

A CPU built out of individual logic gates, in an editor I wrote for it in Rust. Right now it counts in binary on a 16-segment display. Work in progress, the code isn’t public yet.

Camera muon detector

Tech demo, 2026

I turned an old Sony point-and-shoot into a cosmic-ray detector. Long exposures in a dark room: muons passing through the sensor leave dots and streaks.
