About Geffrey van der Bos

Driven by quiet rebellion and stubborn curiosity, I wander into systems and ask, “what if?” I design software to help people navigate financial stress and I’m obsessed with music. Husband to Illustrator Julia and guardian of Loki the Shiba Inu.

Look. I’m not one for moral standards. I should not be held as an example to anyone.

Yet, when I see children in the train—as zombies—holding their head up with one arm and thumbing their way into oblivion with the other. Video after video. Hoodies up. Eyelids halfway closed.

When I observe that? I feel something. A certain regret. A disappointment. How could we have failed so hard.

The internet was so promising.
