Photographer, programmer, and political animal.
After stumbling home from the pub one cold Friday night, I found myself staring at my computer screen, bank card in hand. I became the newest owner of a domain name. The morning after, my wallet a few pounds lighter, I wondered what I to do with my newly-discovered internet chattels. Three years later you see the result: one measly page with barely any content.
You’ve found the site of me, Matt Riggott. Based in Glasgow, Scotland, I’m one part amateur photographer, one part programmer, and ravenous devourer of political news. If you look around carefully you’ll see evidence of all three.
