Engineer / Writer / Not Act V
An engineer who cares about more than technology.
I'm Orion Chen. Code taught me how to break problems apart; writing and film keep bringing me back to the people inside those problems.
My Chinese content channel is 阿南走街串巷: the story is not over, and people are still on the field.

Code
Make things that run
Break vague problems apart, press them into systems, and make judgment reusable.
Writing
Write about the people technology cannot explain
AI, work, family, and the shifts of an era eventually land on specific human lives.
Film
Put the problem back on site
The documentary work is still beginning. I want to film people outside the center of the narrative who are still living seriously.
