Welcome to my website. For details regarding my research and academic contributions, see the sidebar on the left. For details regarding my work as an author and editor, see the sidebar on the right. Thank you for your time and attention.
04.18.2018: update
Apologies for lack of update. Recent events have kept me busy, e.g. getting married, thesis defense, hubris of scheduling both events within a week of each other. Things are going well, both in terms of academics and editing. Upcoming projects involve finalizing edits of a client's manuscript in preparation for querying, capturing the kinematic and force distribution data of esoteric full-conscious non-biphasic bipedal locomotive actions (e.g. ballet dancing, martial arts kata), and others. Lots of fun. Will try to keep this site updated with relevant information. Soon to be reading recently released novel Emergency Contact, which comes highly recommended.
best regards,
cj chou.
03.06.2018: site renovation and relocation
In celebration of my acquisition of the domain prosthes.is, I have updated the appearance of my website and added further details. This personal website now emphasizes both professional aspects of my life while keeping each distinct from the other. As the first update of this site, further blog posts and updates will be situated in this general area, though I will likely install a module such as Jekyll to mitigate the inconvenience of editing updates directly into the code of the site.
best regards,
cj chou.
