Projects:

Things I have finished, abandoned or am working on right now.

IT
  • Gesturehand (my research paper as presented at FedCSIS 2017) - a shorthand system and a framework for creating symbols and alphabets according to given criteria and medium (touchpads, joysticks, eye-tracking, ...).
  • Pchr8board, formerly known as Left-hand Mirrorboard layout for Dvorak - a layout for typing with the left hand on a Dvorak keyboard, using Randal Munroe's "Mirrorboard" idea.
  • Tharmas — my NTUU "KPI" Bachelor's thesis. An algorithm, a set of Python scripts, a server in Django and a WebExtension for Firefox for steganographically hiding small texts in HTML-pages using empty lines, using PRNGs and Shamir's secret sharing algorithm. You might also be interested in my thesis on Native Language Identification on Twitter data.
"Art"
  • Some poetry translations - sometimes, I do that, mostly Russian/Ukrainian to English. I also sometimes write poetry, mostly in Ukrainian.
  • Pentachronological - a semi- completely abandoned webcomic about the 90s (in Russian).
Various / other
  • http://reasonsforli.win/ - random pictures from my "Saved" folder and random quotes from my quotes file. The most postmodernistic of all things I've done. Here's a glitch version. Currently offline.
