Intro

Welcome to Erick's Workspace. This is a personal website that I have created to showcase my projects and skills. I am currently a student at Macquarie University studying a Bachelor of Software Engineering. I am in my penultimate year of study and I am looking forward to graduating and starting my career in the software industry.

I have a passion for software development and I am always looking to learn new technologies and improve my skills. I am currently looking for internship opportunities. If you are interested in working with me, please feel free to contact me through the contact form.

    Projects

    As of the creation of this website I do not have a lot of projects on my Github. I mostly have previouswork done during my enrolment at Macquarie University. This website will be the first of many of my Software Projects. As for what I am familiar with, I have worked with Java, Javascript, C, CSS, Html, Sql, Python and Assembly.

    About This Page

    I created this site using the Dimension template from HTML5 UP. I chose this template because it offered a lot of options for potential creativity. I have modified some of the css to make it more to my liking. I have also added a Spotify widget that shows my currently playing track. This is done by polling a backend service that I have created using Node.js and Express. The backend service uses the Spotify Web API to get the currently playing track. The backend service is not included in this repository as it contains sensitive information.

    The theme behind this website is inspired by religous depictions of death and hell in media particularly the video game Ultrakill as well as numerous songs by Yabujin. I wanted to do this theme because I found the irony of creating a website being about death pretty interesting. They say humans die three times in their life. The first being when they are clinically pronounced dead. The second is when their name is last uttered. And the third is when their likeness is last seen in an image. So by creating this website its as if I have breathed a new possible life into existence that possibly could be seen by people hundreds of years after my passing. Whatever remnants of my personality here could be all thats left of me after years have passed and humanity is extinct leaving behind only the strings of 1s and 0s on this planet.
