Hello there, I'm Satch!

I'm a homeschooled high school student who has been in college for over three years. I live at [The Benson Place Blueberry Farm](https://bensonplace.org) and I love it here.

See the [Me on the web](@/about.md#me-on-the-web) section below for a overview of my online profiles.

See my [/now](/now) page for a hopefully-updated bit about <abbr title="More about now pages at nownownow.com">what I'm doing now</abbr>.

## The *Who Is Satch* Scoop
- Shakespeare nerd, director, and actor
- Computer and website meddler
- Farmer boy
- Violinist (classically trained but I do fiddle stuff too)
- Nature guy (building fires, not getting lost, identifying trees)

#### Music Tastes
I like long walks on the beach. But more than that, of course, I like Pink Floyd, Yes, Jacob Collier, the Beatles, and lots of fiddlin' jams, mind blowing classical compositions, and snippets of birdsong, from the beginning of music way back in the day all the way through to the present.

I also play the violin :)

Other killer bands and artists: Fleetwood Mac, <span><abbr title="Alt-J">∆</abbr></span>, Neutral Milk Hotel, Genesis, Van Der Graaf Generator, King Crimson, Radiohead, the Grateful Dead, Jethro Tull, Joanna Newsom, Gil Scott-Heron, Peter Gabriel, David Bowie, Paul Simon (and Simon & Garfunkel), Peter Paul and Mary, the Band, Joan Baez, Liz Carroll, Crosby Stills & Nash, the Gaslight Tinkers, Solas, The Decemberists, The Flaming Lips, and (last but not least) the great Django Reinhardt.
