AI systems
AI where it actually does a job
The AI work is mostly practical: interfaces for long context, voice, transcription, memory, notes, Discord, and publishing assets.
mason.mxn.au
Nature photography up front. Useful software close behind. A clean public record for the work, credits, links, and systems that should be findable.
Selected field notes
Roads, snowmelt, signs, and trees.
A first edit from Australia: mist in the Victorian Alps, Glass House Mountains roads, Mount Buffalo water, and the odd roadside detail that earns its place.
Dev side
Systems, tools, mods, bots, websites.
The other half is build work: AI tools, Discord systems, static sites, Minecraft utility mods, games, dashboards, and personal machinery with a bias toward actually shipping.
Open the build sideCommunity tools
Discord, translation, and weird little workflows
A lot of the useful software sits where communities already are: Discord channels, game servers, admin panels, and small utilities that make repeated work lighter.
Websites
Fast static sites that sell the thing
The web work is pragmatic and conversion-minded: strong copy, fast Nuxt/Vue builds, local SEO, structured data, analytics, and simple maintenance paths.
Selected builds
A few proof points.
Public and private work across mxn.au, MXNTranslate, Tempest Studios, Minecraft mods, and AI/transcription tooling.
Public build lab
mxn.au
A broad personal platform for tools, dashboards, calculators, game utilities, translation/admin paths, daily games, and experiments that need somewhere real to live.
Discord system
MXNTranslate
A Discord translation system with reaction translation, message context-menu translation, auto-translate channel mirroring, reaction roles, logging, and a dashboard backend.
Desktop AI tool
Video Transcriber
A local-first desktop app for turning long-form video and audio into transcripts, captions, and publishing-ready outputs, with optional AI cleanup and analysis.
Web studio
Tempest Studios
A custom website and hosting studio for Australian small businesses, with public pricing, SEO guides, process pages, case-study framing, and a strong no-template stance.
Also here
A source of truth, not a maze.
Photography
Roads, water, snow, timber
Nature and roadside images from Australia, leaning into quiet detail and weather.
Build
Useful systems with a point of view
AI tools, Discord bots, static websites, Minecraft mods, games, dashboards, and the private machinery that makes real workflows less annoying.
Credit
Names stay attached
A public place for credits, context, links, and the bits of provenance that should not get lost.
