Hi! Welcome to otherdimensional club, the digital home of nikhil sonnad aka khila.
I do a lot of different things: music, computer programming, data visualization, journalism, teaching, writing. This site is both a portfolio of my work and a place for me to share random updates and thoughts. If you want something a bit more official, check out my CV.
Subscribe to the otherdimensional club newsletter below! I'm not really on social media so it's the best way to say up to date with my music, art, and other projects.
