Ilmari is a Chrome Developer Programs Engineer at Google UK, with a focus on the web graphics stack. I’m an invited expert on the Khronos WebGL working group and have written a couple Canvas-based graphics libraries. My most recent published work (from before joining Google) are the 2D game Runfield and an augmented reality demo, both made for Mozilla’s Web O’(pen) Wonder. Before that, a friend and I tried to build a web startup in OCaml. Which was interesting. I have a BSc in Computer Science from the University of Helsinki.
