Hello there! I'm Anne-Laure Le Cunff, founder of Ness Labs and a PhD researcher at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, where I study how different brains learn differently.

Most websites today are built like commercial products by professionals and marketers, optimised to draw the largest audience, generate engagement and 'convert'. But there is also a smaller, less-visible web designed by regular people to simply to share their interests and hobbies with the world. A web that is unpolished, often quirky but often also fun, creative and interesting.

If you enjoyed the old web of the 90s and 00s; if you love tinkering with your personal website; or if you just like quirky, fun things on the internet, you will love this.
