Hullo.
I’m Filip Hnízdo (pronounced “Nest”).
I write poetry and lyrics, music, stories and interactive web art focused on colours, music and geolocation. I also like writing about other people’s art.
In professional life I’m director of Octophin Digital where we make digital things like interactive maps, games, apps and databases for the wildlife conservation and arts sectors.
