WELCOME, Net Surfer!!!

You have reached the personal home page of Jeff Wilson, also known as PROFESSOR DUMPSTER. Thanks for cruising the Information Superhighway and stopping by my little corner of Cyberspace!!!

I am a sixth-generation Texan and Silicon Valley transplant and I am SUPER PUMPED to have this new thing called an Information Superhighway browser TODAY! I am currently tinkering around with what they are calling "artificial intelligence" on my IIe. It is just really rad programs that can do smart things - even think. I have a feeling this AI thing is going to be HUGE in a few decades - and not in the terminator way but in the Hitchiker's Guide Way! NEW!


PS - check out this new touch screen thing called the ► Newton!


♻ THE DUMPSTER PROJECT ♻ NEW! FUN!

Back a few years ago, I moved into a DUMPSTER right behind the dorms at the university where I was a professor and lived there for ONE ENTIRE YEAR. HA!

The dumpster experiment was the direct inspiration for Kasita, my micro-housing startup! We built stackable smart micro-homes. Named one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies and won a SXSW Interactive Innovation Award. Sold to a tiny home hotel company in 2019.
