Sean M. Tracey calls himself a technologist, which is a fancy way of saying he still hasn't decided what he wants to do with technology - other than everything. Sean has spent his career trying to avoid getting 'proper' jobs, and as such has had a hand in making a variety of fun and interesting projects, including a singing statue of Lionel Richie, wearable drum kits, chopstick bagpipes, timetelling hats, and a life-sized Elvis Presley robot, to name only a few.
