Web Designer & Programmer

Jorge Gonzalez

Web Designer & Programmer — Costa Rica

I think in systems. Design taught me to see structure. Code taught me to question it. Now I build things at the intersection of both — and write about what I find along the way. More about how I think →

The Mathematics We Chose to Believe In

Why Does Geometry Need ε?

Resolution is not something calculus produces. It is something calculus should have started with. A first attempt at discrete geometry, its honest failure, and what the failure revealed.

Geometry as Process — Direction, Distance, and a Rule

What if geometry is not built from objects at locations but from moves? A small set of parameters defines a generative process from which geometric shapes can be constructed.

What Geometry Looks Like From Here

The three previous posts identified problems, attempted a solution, and proposed a framework. This post states what the framework actually is, what it removes, what it reveals, and where it points.

What the Framework Opened

The framework was built to solve a specific problem. What it opened was not part of the plan.

Let's Think Together

I am interested in conversations that cross boundaries — between design and code, between intuition and rigour, between the way things are built and the way they could be built instead. If something I have written made you think differently about a problem you are working on, I would like to hear about it.

Currently building a text macro browser extension and thinking through a compositional framework for web layouts. Always turning over ideas at the foundations of mathematics, computation, and design. Based in Costa Rica, available for projects that value thinking as much as execution.
