Draw with Kyle
http://draw.kyle-seaford.co.uk/

draw

In 2012, I took on the challenge of creating my very first website, and I had some fantastic guidance from my dad along the way. This project marked my foray into the world of WordPress. The main goal? To showcase my love for drawing, a passion that was gaining momentum at the time. But the website wasn't just about art; it also became a space where I shared reviews of local parks and highlighted various projects I was working on. Looking back, that website captures a snapshot of my creative journey and interests during that period. It's a testament to those early days of exploring the online world and finding a way to express myself.


Dragon Fruit Games

draw

conceived in September 2023, marked my foray into web development. While the website never saw the light of day, its creation served as my initial exposure to HTML. Admittedly, the design was far from perfect—chaotic layouts and amateurish aesthetics prevailed.
Yet, every flaw illuminated a path of improvement. What may have appeared as a subpar design became a canvas for learning. Each coding misstep transformed into a stepping stone for growth. The "shocking" appearance was, in essence, a testament to my evolving skills.
In retrospect, "Dragon Fruit Games" was more than a dormant project; it was a journey from coding novice to a more seasoned developer. The site, with all its imperfections, kindled my enduring passion for web development.


Southern sanandreas super autos from GTA5

draw

My second venture into web development led to a visually pleasing creation, though it never made it to the public domain. This project was a recreation of the Southern San Andreas Super Autos website from GTA 5. Unlike its predecessor, this endeavor was a fusion of fun and learning.
The recreation process involved delving into the intricacies of design, aiming to capture the essence of the in-game website. Every detail, from the layout to the visual elements, was meticulously crafted to mirror the GTA 5 experience. As a result, the project became a canvas for honing my skills in HTML, CSS, and design principles.
While the website may not have seen the light of day, the journey of replicating a virtual platform into a tangible web design proved to be an engaging and enlightening experience. This endeavor, with its visual appeal and educational value, contributed significantly to my growth as a web developer.

Projects


Cryptocurrency
2022 - 2023

projects

I mined XMR coins using Linux and Windows Monero miners. Learning to mine enabled me to understand how to install Linux and use Putty to control the computer remotely using SSH. I also explored the possibility of using old mobile phones for mining; however, the Android power-saving functionality prevented mining on the phone. To overcome this obstacle, I removed the phone's operating system and installed Linux.

IBM SERVERS
2023 - present

projects

Recently, I had the opportunity to acquire a collection of 12 IBM servers, consisting of 7 M3 models, 2 M2 models, and 1 M4 model. In addition to these, I also acquired 6 HP ProLiant DL160 Generation 5 servers. Recognizing the potential value in these hardware assets, I embarked on a meticulous process to restore and refurbish them to their optimal working condition. Through my efforts, I have successfully resolved any technical issues and ensured that these servers are fully operational.

Arduino battle bots
2022 - 2023

projects

I used Arduino Nanos to create two Bluetooth-controlled robots: Ram Bot and Wacker. Ram Bot showcased versatility, tackling various tasks and obstacle courses. Wacker, on the other hand, specialized in precise movements. These projects not only displayed my technical skills but also my passion for robotics and innovation, highlighting the creative potential of technology.

Pi-Wars
2017 - 2018

projects

In 2017 and 2018, my family enthusiastically joined Pi-Wars at Cambridge University, a robotics competition where all robots were powered by Raspberry Pi controllers. This unique event featured non-combat challenges such as navigating mazes, precision line-following, and even robotic mini-golf. It was an invaluable experience that allowed us to showcase our technical skills, problem-solving abilities, and teamwork while exploring the exciting world of Raspberry Pi-powered robotics.
