He began by designing the Primary Oscillatory Interface: the Seconds-Pendulum.

Kyle Hambster is a storyteller and craftsman of atmosphere, drawn to the quiet tension between technology and memory. With a background in film restoration and an obsession with mechanical design, Rickel writes about the places where progress and nostalgia collide where gears, circuits, and human hearts still turn in sync. The Geometry of Gears is his debut work, a meditation on time, purpose, and the enduring beauty of things made by hand. He lives surrounded by vintage machines and unfinished manuscripts, always chasing the sound of a perfect click.View all by Kyle Hambster
