About me

Who Am I?

My name is Aaron Cupp. I have been on the internet for WAY too long…

I started my journey down the rabbit hole that is internet technology when I was about 11 years old. The internet was still GOPHER and ARCHIE access via BBS systems. I got lucky and had access to the local college internet via my mother, who was one of the SYSOPs at the college.

I am mostly self-taught when it comes to my computer education. I learned BASIC and COBOL on my own from books. Self taught linux from breaking systems I built in my bedroom. My first Linux OS was Slackware…floppy install. There was about 50 of them for the OS and X-windows :) I got into IRC and MUDs not long after getting online. Both of these got me more involved in programming and systems. I picked up LPC (a C-like language for game development) from MUD gaming. I picked up tcl from playing with eggdrop bots in IRC.

About

Born in 2008 as an IRC network that was hosting various chat and control channels for a few internet radio projects and electronics groups that I had been part of. After leaving techno-dnb.com radio in 2008 I launched a streaming radio feed on the original Tech-Noid Systems website. The radio feeds stayed online till about 2014 when there was an issue with the hardware issues that took the project offline.

Visuals and More

I specialized in audio reactive shader based visual projection using projection mapping. I use a number of tools and software to create and perform visuals for Raves, Festivals and Concerts. I am actively working towards getting my FDA Variance for laser performance in the United States and plan on working more laser and lighting aspects into my visual performances and programmed shows.
