Gastown Simulator
First-person Vancouver prototype using browser rendering, civic/open-data world files, route anchors, weather/time-of-day controls, and iterative product design.

I build strange, useful things.
I’m Suzy Easton — a senior technical generalist, musician, and creative technologist who turns messy workflows, flaky systems, and half-formed ideas into practical outcomes. My work spans QA automation, IT operations, AI prototypes, civic/open-data experiments, music tech, and public projects like Lousy Outages.
Available for senior technical roles, contract QA/automation work, practical AI prototypes, and useful weird builds.

AI Film Club fireside chat: building tools, not just prompts
I joined Mayumi Rollings for an AI Film Club fireside chat about the middle ground between prompting and building: ASMR Lab, Gastown/Vancouver scene experiments, procedural audio, creator control, and why I started making my own tools instead of waiting for a platform to fit.
Part film experiment, part product prototype, part “fine, I’ll build it myself.”
Featured builds
Projects with a practical point of view: experiments that ship, teach, and stay useful.
VanOps Radar
Vancouver operations intelligence for storefronts, venues, offices, and local teams — a practical disruption board for road access, transit, weather, utility issues, event-day risks, and business continuity signals.
Open VanOps RadarTrack Analyzer
AI feedback tool for musicians: upload a track, get practical mix notes, and move faster from “something’s off” to “that’s the problem.”

Retro internet/provider outage tracker and status-page experiment — the weird monitoring lab behind some of the signal ideas.
View Lousy OutagesASMR Lab / Rain City Experiments
Procedural audio-visual experiments where storyboards, synths, browser visuals, and AI prompts meet in the weird part of the lab.
Explore the LabAlbini Q&A
An experimental voice-and-attitude-driven creative app inspired by Steve Albini: part tribute, part interactive web experiment, part chaos-tested music-tech artifact.

The same brain behind the systems also writes songs, makes noisy little films, talks shop, and occasionally turns Vancouver rain into a production aesthetic.
Available for senior roles, contract work, and strange useful builds
I’m open to senior technical roles, contract QA/automation work, practical AI prototypes, and debugging projects where the system is messy and someone needs to make the thing make sense.
