Hi all. This is the personal webspace of emk (Eric M. Kiara).
I'll eventually upload my portfolio site which is currently a work in progress. It will include samples of my work, some tutorials, some personal info and other random sections.

I'm interested, and involved in:

Programming (Python, C, learning ASM)

Graphic Design (both vector illustration and pixel work)

WebDesign (basic XHTML/CSS/JS/Flash and I'm learning Zope/PHP/Perl/ASP)

3D, I do 3D modelling/rendering in Blender 3D (currently 2.31a - with no raytracing :( )

Linux, I admit it I'm a Linux nut, though I consider myself a newbie.

Hardware, I'm a bit of a hardware tinkerer; my current project is making a really cheap "USB Flash Disk" basically a headless system running Linux that I'll connect to other machines to act as a bulky but convenient means of portable storage space.

Here are two images I rendered recently with Blender. No raytracing but a pretty good glass material.
