I am Louis-Jean Teitelbaum, a PhD student spending my late twenties in Paris. My work is on the history and meaning of graphical user interfaces, such as computers windows and buttons. Most of my time is spent reading and writing about how things get built, and listening to fine music.
Recently, I’ve started a production company called Microcultures. For now, it’s like a music label with integrated kickstarterish participation features.
On this page, you will find links to what I did and what I liked online, including my personal weblog and my research weblog, my web design work and a personal feed.
