About Me

I am a generalist who makes video games. Over the past 15 years I ran a music venue, started a couple music labels, made music under a bunch of different monikers, freelanced as a web developer, worked as a technical director, led teams making large scale art installations, consulted for foreign governments about art and technology, gave talks at art festivals, created VR experiences, and founded a startup that made virtual production tools for artists.

I previously released a permadeath platformer called Void Climber. Read my postmortem here:

I live in New York City where I have been for the past decade. You can follow me on X @9000dimensions or visit my personal website at xander.computer.
