tl;dr: I build contraptions where gears, circuits, and bytes run wild together.

[ GALLERY ]

Hello, World! I’m Mike, a tradigital maker. I wear many hats: woodworker, metalsmith, 3D-print artistan, circuitsmith, bitwright, and digital-aided machinist. My art fuses traditional craftsmanship with experimental technology, transforming raw materials and industrial processes into expressive, tactile works. My pieces explore the interplay between human intention and machine logic, often revealing the beauty in function, imperfection, and iterative design.

"Geocaching is a game that uses billion-dollar satellites to find Tupperware in the woods. Not because it's logical or rational, but because it is fun. So too with my art. I use advanced manufacturing tools to create whimsical, imperfect objects of my dreams for the simple reason that making is fun. Self-expression is the gift of humanity. The physical objects I leave behind will speak of my ideas, dreams, and fears long after I am gone." - M.B. Parks
