Denny is a self-taught composer, animator, and game developer. He started composing in 2007 at age 22 with no prior training or musical background and primarily studied the works of composers like James Horner, John Williams, and Hans Zimmer. In 2012, he released his first album The First Five Years, which included a 20-minute piece titled Dreams of Flight. In 2018, Denny began work on his first indie game, based on music he composed of the same name called Lightyears from Home. Like with music, he taught himself thru online resources and experimentation with Unreal Engine, Maya, and other tools.

Imagine a fully self-sustaining company with no customers, products, or employees, an autonomous company
that generates revenue year after year on its own with no work done by any human being. Such a company already exists. Autodidactic is a company where revenue is automated by an AI and the humans can focus solely on creative endeavors - a concept we call the Autodidactic Islands.Our team consists of self-taught individuals each skilled in many fields. All of us are equally artists, engineers, and mad scientists at heart. We grew up on the internet and have gone on to treat the world as our sandbox. We believe the kind of projects we pursue require the curiosity, hunger, and worldliness that come only from interest in both programming and finance, math and literature, art and science,
polymath and autodidact
. Our own interests and aspirations always come first in our work. If our projects become marketable and change the world so be it, but we bow down to no one.A typical day can go from creating games, music, and short films to building bots that take on the stock market. We've built an engine that lets us tackle any project we can think of, pursue any idea we can dream of, and we’re looking for others who, like us, have a strong sense of adventure, a healthy level of insanity, and a genuine desire to take over the world... just because we can. Bahaha!
