Bio
The man, the engineer, the mythology.
"If it runs on electrons, Glenn has probably opened it up."
Glenn Eldridge is an electronic and electrical engineer with a career spent understanding the invisible forces that power the modern world. He has, over the decades, designed circuits, debugged systems, and on more than one occasion explained to non-engineers — patiently, thoroughly, and with only the barest trace of exasperation — why something cannot work the way they imagine it should.
His interests extend well beyond the workbench. Glenn is an attentive listener of music, with a keen appreciation for how it is reproduced as much as how it is composed. He maintains opinions about audio equipment that are considered, deeply held, and not generally up for casual debate. He is also a reader of books that reward careful attention.
This website is a small, deliberate corner of the internet: a place for things Glenn finds worth sharing, curating, or simply noting down. It is not on social media. That is a feature, not a bug.
The difference between theory and practice is smaller in theory than in practice.—likely overheard by Walter J. Savitch at a conference.
