Top SchoolAndy Baker is a developer with 17 years' experience blending web, 3D and immersive media to build interactive experiences for arts, education and culture from Brighton, UK. As a director and lead developer at Ixxy and contributor to the community-led Open Brush project, he moves between full-stack web work (notably Django tooling) and VR/XR feature development such as glTF import fixes, texture-export improvements and a snip tool for stroke editing. His background spans design-led roles in Flash and Actionscript to modern open-source engineering, giving him a rare mix of creative craft and robust engineering practice. Active with the Icosa Foundation, he helps steward open-source VR tools that extend Google's Tilt Brush legacy, demonstrating both product-minded thinking and hands-on shipping of UX and export features.
