Other Stuff

This is a listing of stuff that was available on the old website but doesn't really have its own place in the blog. It might move later.

Music

I enjoy playing the piano and violin for fun, especially in small chamber music ensembles. Some recordings are available on YouTube thanks to the Engineering Chamber Orchestra at UT Austin. I've also tried to write some music. You can find some of this here.
