About

I’m Patrick Barnes, a software architect and technology explorer with 25 years of experience in software engineering.

My background includes large-scale platform engineering, developer experience, architecture, and systems thinking. I’m especially interested in work that combines technical depth with broad learning across domains.

Over time, my interests have expanded beyond pure engineering into areas like AI, language learning, culture, religion, history, philosophy, interactive storytelling, and knowledge systems.

This site is where I collect and present selected projects, writing, and research ideas that reflect those interests.
