about irfan
I do software systems, fiction, poetry, and art. Rumors are whispered that I do more but those are
the main things.
My first job in tech was a pre-college gig hooking people up with Internet at the first ISP in
Kuching, Malaysia in 1995. After that I pursued the Arts in college (with a focus on computer
graphics and animation), but then returned to work as a technologist for all manner of clientele
in domains as varied as education, e-commerce, social networking, online philanthropy, and healthcare.
More recently I have reconnected with my pursuits in digital art and writing, with projects in various
stages of development (many of them to be published on this site as they are ready).
I had a pretty international upbringing, growing up in Malaysia and England before I came to the
United States to further my studies at Iowa State University. I moved to New York City at the
turn of the millenium and have resided here since.
something just happened, somehow such that it came known to me i'd been there. now i beseech thee, compose for me what i'd smelled there.
the rouge leather couches of cozy melodrama, someone singing slowly but through the radio. curls of the cavendish and burley fighting where i first saw her setting.
compose, compose further for now she is saying she was never there, in that night parlor. bring out the name of the song, of the artist on the radio, bring out the art of it.
show them, show her; twas not my misrememberance, compose!
