This is my personal site, in place of most social media.
My email is matt@kolon.org. I’m also boingit.88 on Signal.
Thank God I’m married to the amazing artist Patty Hudak.
Our offspring are limited to the unlimited Carl Kolon and Nellie Kolon.
We see many operas together, mostly at The Met in NYC.
We now live near Vermont’s Mt Mansfield. I sometimes take pictures of it.
When we lived in Beijing, we got a cat, who has followed us across three
countries and an ocean. She likes dessert and has quite a pedigree.
Hill Associates creates programs that teach people how to build, run, secure, sell,
and regulate telecommunications and networking solutions. I’m the CTO there.
I’m also a founding board member of Mansfield Community Fiber.
My professional resume might be graphically summarized like this:
With the help of a little LLM-based artificial intelligence, I write a bit of code.
Various outdoor sports are regular preoccupations.
Busy life interrupted my childhood reading addiction, which I’m now feeding again.
The eternal genius Claude Shannon and I graduated from the same high school.
