👨‍💻 About Me - Instagram: @markbacon78
I record, edit, and upload a wide variety of videos of how my weeks go, various events happening alongside my projects planning and creation processes. Currently a double Computer Science and Language & Mind major at NYU, and minoring in Game Design at NYU Tisch, so I'm happy to answer any and all questions either in the comments or by email (in the "About" section). From animation to NYU, ask away! I look forward to seeing you in future videos.

🎬 My Videos
I upload every week on Mondays or Tuesdays at 10am ET / 2pm UTC so check back then! I am focusing a lot on productivitym educational, and typing videos, from language learning and linguistics to game design and computer science, but have the occasional split here and there. I also post some timelapses of my projects from time to time.
