How I organise my bookshelf

Eula wrote a response (“Collecting reference books for creativity”) to my post on inspiration from physical artefacts and organising them. Ironically, I didn’t appreciate the continuity between these posts until now. I digress. In her blog post, Eula wrote about how she orga...

Edinburgh Summer Sessions

You feel like you have joined a community in a festival line. Everyone is together, waiting for music — we all came here with a common purpose, a purpose that we can see, a purpose that we can feel. We came here because we are human. Many people are dressed up, in all colour...

Hey let’s update websites!

Among the older things I put on the web were fansites: Bebe Ads Ronny Vardy Fan Stew & The Negro Problem Lyrics These are run with WordPress. I did some maintenance on them today. Not particularly interesting, but it keeps me busy. I added SoundCloud to my feed patterns list page, kind of obvious to...

Discussed Venn diagrams with a couple of friends this morning, especially in the context of illustrating the utility of including all 3 or 4 of a specific set of design principles when creating certain kinds of things, and learned about the difference between Venn diagrams an...

Sunday Chill

Panorama, Sunday It’s been foggy the last few mornings at the beach. And the weather has been hotter. The water temperature has been colder. I’m working on things. Making adjustments. Riding waves, both water and metaphorical. What wave it next?

Things I want to remember

I wrote this a few days ago, inspired by Things I Want to Remember by A Graceful Life. I planned to add more to the list but I didn't end up finishing it. With that said, I do want to publish what I have, as a little snippet of four things that caught my eye on one evening l...

Art, technology; change

When I started to study art history, I had a feeling that I may no longer spend as much time reading about and experimenting with technology. This has turned out to be true in many senses: I have spent countless hours reading textbooks and literary texts, and writing essays....

First moments

When I got out of bed this morning, I felt a chill from the autumn air that had been flowing through the room since yesterday evening. The air was cooled by midnight and would soon be warmed by the burgeoning sun rising over the hills. The seasons are changing. I can feel it...

Parasocial grief. This week we lost a cheerleader. Days before that we lost a professor. A few weeks ago a musician. I knew of these individuals, had never met them, fairly certain they had no idea who I was. I was either a fan of their work, or sympathetic to their struggles...

Organising physical artefacts

I love admiring spaces and thinking about how they work but, when it comes to the physical spaces I use most or every day – my bedroom, my desk, my bookshelves – I haven’t spent as much time thinking about decoration. When an environment functions, I don’t often think about ...

Chuck Tingle and the Internet

Beth Accomando interviewing Chuck Tingle Kelly got us tickets to see Chuck Tingle speak at KPBS San Diego Book Festival. It was a hot day and it was great to peruse the booths and the energy of the folks walking the USD campus was terrific. Aside: I got to tell Kelly (again) that my parents,...
