Field notes
The project index groups work by medium, with short descriptions and labels such as Hardware, Robotics, and Broadcast. Separate sections show film contact sheets with frame counts and a garage listing several vehicles with role or specification notes. The introduction says Keil runs Kaffee Werks, a design and automation studio, and describes his after-hours work as welding, wiring, printing, and tuning.
