About Notes

Every line of code has a story. Most of us just never hear it.

Notes from the Machine is the companion newsletter to Found in the Machine, a narrative podcast about the forgotten people, decisions, and accidents that quietly shaped the digital world. Each issue arrives with a new episode and goes further than the audio can. You'll get:

  • More from Me 
    What I'm working on. A question or idea the episode left me with. Whatever is sitting at the edge of the next story.
  • Left on the Cutting Room Floor
    What didn't make it into the episode. A source I couldn't fit. A detail that distracted from the narrative but that I want to share.
  • The Story
    A readable version of the episode script. The same story, written to be read rather than heard.
  • Sources
    Actual materials I used while writing.

The show is for the kind of person who pulls on threads. So is this.
