I'm Rob Speer, a student at MIT. Contributor to many Lojban projects, finisher of not so many.
 
What I've done:
 
* [[jbocre: jbozgiMusic|jbozgiMusic]] - mapping Lojban vowels to musical tones, based on the pentatonic scale
* A translation in progress of [[jbocre: The Cask of Amontillado|The Cask of Amontillado]]
 
* Two chapters of [http://www.digitalkingdom.org/cvsweb/lojban/translations/flatland/flatland.txt latland] on CVS, perhaps to be added to someday. On hold for now.
* Assembled the [[jbocre: Word frequency lists: gismu]]
 
* Translations of [[jbocre: The Song That Never Ends|The Song That Never Ends]]
* The (silly) English translation of [[jbocre: Lojban Rock Lyrics|Lojban Rock Lyrics]]. ''You are the evening of the coming porous prophet.''
 
* A Dvorak keyboard optimized for Lojban at [[jbocre: QwertAsdf|QwertAsdf]]
* A Lojban-based computer language specification: [[jbocre: samtrosku specification amtrosku|samtrosku specification amtrosku]]. I wouldn't want to use this language, but it was fun to come up with it.
