My name is Matthew Schinckel. I am a teacher of Design & Technology, including Computer Aided Design, Electronics and a variety of other things.

My main interests are Touch Football (I’m the President and Head Coach of the Central Scorpions Touch Association, and the Girls 15 and Under SSSSA Touch Coach), and computing.

I’ve been working on an iTunes Controller for MacOS X, and like to program in python. I also spend a significant amount of time coding in JavaScript, AppleScript and PHP Smarty Tags.

I currently volunteer as a moderator on the Blogsome Forum.

My PGP Public Key.

The title of my blog, Paint the Tiger, Carve the Swan, comes from a quote from Monkey, the TV series I loved most (and was allowed to watch least) as a child. The full quote is:

Heaven favours, where virtue rules.

And what would this be but to paint the tiger and carve the swan?
