June 2009: Yes - I'm still here! New this month is the big announcement that the 2D-tilt mazes are now available on iPhone & iPod touch as puzzle-app iTilt (see image right) with a much expanded puzzle-set. Also new this month is several new SVG-quality mazes in the maze gallery. Also a special note on behalf of Oskar, who is now presenting many of his latest mechanical inventions on YouTube - well worth a browse from time to time.

Andrea - a potted history. As a child in the 70s I drew free-hand mazes, ever larger and ever more detailed, on 2D and then 3D surfaces. In the 80s I preferred form and structure, strong patterns that could be broken in small ways to produce elegant mazes. In the 90s I turned increasingly to rules and logic to add extra layers of complexity and push my skills to the limit. More and more I lent on my own (and others) software engineering skills to help create, prove and solve my mazes. In the late 90s the web, and in particular java, finally provided me with the perfect tools to launch and share my ideas, and opened up a whole new range of possibilities. The web-based, interactive puzzle-maze, or the clickmaze. What can I say, the 00s look set to be the most exciting decade yet. Keep clicking and be amazed!
