A while ago my account got compromised, lost tons of followers and engagement, and my tweets got erased —but I’m back and rebuilding!
Here’s a glimpse of my work contributing to masterclasses as a Developer Relations and Lecturer. Always a pleasure to share and learn!
Why? Because I believe in the power of sharing knowledge and collaboration—that’s how we all grow and succeed. The journey is just starting, and I’m ready to make it up to you all! If you’re looking for someone who values innovation and teamwork, let’s connect! 📷#Resilience #Collaboration #Innovation #NewBeginnings #Tech #CareerGrowth #developerrelations
My Orchestrator workflow next to an AI agent graph. Inputs, actions, outputs, a branch for success and one for failure. The boxes changed. The drawing did not.

Inside a broadcast centre: live feeds to replay servers, shared storage, edit, and back to playout.

How 3D TV and 360 video worked: one sphere, two eyes.

From construction file to a building you can walk through. About 12 weeks, by hand, before AI coding tools.

I’m deeply passionate about DeFi.
I haven’t seen it work long term anywhere yet, but I believe robinhood:0xca9c78dd337a67f6e0077f65f5e9218719d30edf is on track to prove it can be done.
So I built NETNET RUNNER GAME
tawfik.tv/gamenet
as a test of the environment: can a fun game run on a real DeFi protocol?
Games for blockchain and DeFi don't work I tried during my gaming career, so this is pure research.
How it plays: grab coins, carry them on your head and bank them at the Vault. Other players can bump your carried coins loose. Banked coins are safe and they grow.
How it pulls from NET:
Every real NET trade sprays coins from the Fee Fountain
Big real buys rain coins, and $5K+ buys spawn a whale everyone races for
The Bell rings at NET’s real dividend times and every vault grows
Red days send a bear after anyone carrying coins
Bonds pay back after 2 days, like Real World Bonds
A nightly Lucky Vault draw, like WinNET
Free in your browser, no wallet, play money only for now: tawfik.tv/gamenet
I am not associated with the NET team and I’m not telling anyone to buy anything. I just love what NET is doing.
If this gets traction, tell me in the comments what would make it better or what you want to see next.@netnetcap @fern @RobinhoodCrypto

How it was built: nitter.cf/tawffff/status/2108077…
How live TV and streaming work: why your stream is behind the TV, how a 50 GB file moves fast, how streaming apps get tested, and what AI changes. From both ends of the chain: Formula 1, the Olympics, Sky and Amazon.
The full story behind the SEVEN build: how 650 MB of construction models became a mall you can walk through in a browser. 12 weeks, by hand, before AI coding tools.
This building didn't exist yet. You could already walk through it.
SEVEN Al Hamra, Riyadh. I turned the construction models into a real-time 3D replica
The construction model, then what I built from it.
How I built it:
• construction models (Revit, IFC, Navisworks)
• everything inside walls stripped out
• Blender, then Unity
• day and night on one button
• runs on Android, ROG Ally and the web
Signed off as the first of six destinations on SEVEN's 3D portal.

Most teams don't have a year to spend on a build.
uBuild gets a working app live in weeks. Auth, user management, reporting, data access already wired.
You configure the workflow. We run the infrastructure.

Exactly five years ago, I started building what became one of the most ambitious Digital Twin (Metaverse) projects with my incredible team. virtualexpodubai.com
The journey wasn’t easy—rendering real-time data, managing the immense scale of the venue, and delivering seamless interactive experiences for thousands of users all at once. But seeing it come to life virtually made every challenge worth it.

I’ve been fortunate to work on some groundbreaking tech and games
One of the coolest things about this project is how it pushes boundaries, it’s a game that envisions a massive open world where players have the ultimate control, with no predefined objectives or directions. It’s all about creating a completely organic experience where the journey is shaped by the player themselves—truly a game-changer in the making. 🌍🎮
