Once I start coding, I work on a powerful laptop (a MacBook Pro Retina 15" with a NVIDIA GPU card) connected to a big screen.
I use as many Raspberry Pi as I can get a hold of.
Coding & Development
It's called glslViewer and you can use it directly from the console or with your favorite code editor.
Design
I'm such a fan of shaders that I do most of my work with them, to the point I that barely use Photoshop.
Other
I'm Patricio Gonzalez Vivo, an artist and graphical engineer working at Mapzen.
Once I have a clear understanding of what I want to do, I start composing maps using another custom tool I work on called Tangram Play.
