About

My name is Joel Pedersen.

Before completing my degree in Sociology from the University of Arizona in 2009 (Summa Cum Laude, and later in life than most) I floundered around in film colorization, animation, and pre-digital photographics. After graduation, I floundered around in graduate school, computer programming, cgi, ceramics, painting and writing.

Though I envy people who have had a well-defined and focused career arc, I really prefer to flounder.

I live with my partner of 20 years, two cats, and a very cute pug in the California desert.

I am a Human, and I might send you a postcard.

If you're still glued to the interminable scroll, you can follow me here:

• Mastodon
• Bluesky (Until they inevitably ruin things)
