A little about me

I’m Tyler. I love computers and machines, beautiful linework, and things with heart. I’m also drawn to the night sky, spirituality, and meditation.

This site brings those interests together: a place to write freely, make curious things, and leave room for what comes next.

Tyler Lyman.
