Why I'm Building a Digital Garden
A welcome post about rejecting the 'niche' and embracing a space for all my interests - from tech and art to personal research.

More Than One Box
For years, I thought about starting a website. The advice was always the same: ‘find your niche’.
Should it be a professional tech blog? An art portfolio? A place for my research? The pressure to choose one box felt paralyzing, because I am not a niche. I am a frontend developer, a contemporary artist, and a neurodivergent researcher.
So I decided to build a space that could hold all of it.
A Space for Curiosity
This is my digital garden. Think of it as a living ‘user manual for my brain’, where I document my hyper-fixations and creative explorations.
One day you might find a list of art galleries in Tbilisi. The next, a post about the River Song timeline in Doctor Who, a cheat sheet for a grounding technique, or my research into the hEDS, POTS, and MCAS triad. It’s a space for curiosity, not for a brand.
Embracing the Process
What that means is this space is intentionally imperfect. It’s not about polished, finished articles. It’s about the process.
Some notes will be seeds, half-formed and just planted. Others might be sprawling, interconnected branches of thought. The goal is to show the work, the learning, and the connections as they happen.
This is my corner of the web. Welcome 🩷
