johanv.xyz, my chill website
Hi, I'm Johan Vandegriff, and this is johanv.xyz: my new, awesome, spectacular, and chill website! Here's a random interesting fact about me:
I don't drink coffee or tea (except sometimes iced tea).
Drawings
This is a drawing I made of the Erasable Inc. improv group at the University of Maryland (UMD) after their 24-hour show.

For this drawing and others, I used the free and open source drawing software Krita, a Wacom tablet, and a Manjaro Linux laptop. I've also made some drawings on physical media.
Videos
This video is for a propsed research project for Gemstone at UMD. I ended up joining another project instead, but I still have the initial version and plan to make it into a product someday.
Games
You can play Boggle, a multiplayer word game, talk to CARL, a chatbot that learns phrases from you, or play some of my old games written in perl.
Blog
Here's a snippet from a quintessential blog post of mine:
Log.e() – Tales from the electron Volts
An account follows of the myriad of adventures I have had with the electronVolts. My aim is that the narrative shall be as accurate as possible and will serve useful in reference during future events.

We were visited by a band of rookies. They do not perceive the insurmountable tasks that lie ahead of them. I attempted to affright them by disclosing to them the monster that is The Code, but alas, they took an interest in this beast. I fear there is no way to warn them; their days ahead appear grim.
The Great Git attacked our code today. I researched its weaknesses in the Archives of Google and found individuals who were in a similar predicament. Armed with this knowledge, we were able to send it howling back from whence it came.
Resume
NASA GSFC Internship
summer 2017

I fixed bugs in C code for NASA’s core Flight System by writing unit tests on a CentOS Linux virtual machine (using VirtualBox). To help write unit tests, I wrote some bash scripts to generate skeleton functions, then filled them in manually with code to test each case. At the end of the summer, I created a poster and presented it at a lab-wide showcase day.
