Dries Buytaert

My site

In 1999 I decided to start dri.es (formally buytaert.net) as a place to blog, write, share photos, and deepen my thinking. My site is one of my longest running projects. Working on my site helps me relax, so it's something that I do regularly. Now and then, I document my work on dri.es.
