Panorama from today. I enjoy riding waves quite a lot. I went to Ocean Beach. Kelly went to San Diego Design Week. I updated my avatar on lots of services. It was a bit easier to do on my Elsewhere page. I also added it (still out of order and with duplicates) to my “PFP”...

Volunteered today. It was fun. #SanDiegoDesignWeek
Our team at @tollwerk designs for screen and print, and I couldn't find a tool that checks whole palettes for accessible #contrast in both. So I built one: https://pairette.tollwerk.de
It checks palettes against #WCAG 2, #APCA and DIN 32975, handles translucent colours, builds tone scales evenly spaced in contrast, keeps palettes in a URL and speaks Design Tokens.
It's still very young. I'd love for you to play with it and tell me what you think! 🙏

The feeling of fresh air after having been in an art gallery — the feeling of the natural light after being in a room without windows and also a room with many windows, windows through time and to the feeling of home and to impressions of Nature — to the sea and the sky, the...

This week I was writing a story and noticed something strange: I didn’t give the document a title, but, after saving it, the document had a title that I did not expect. If I don’t have a name for a story yet, or if I am doing free writing, I will often not give a document a ...

Post session under-pier selfie. Tired.
My website has now moved to its new home in Virginia. Time for a lot of quality of life upgrades, as I migrate every 4 years or so.

🎬 Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma

Hm. I probably expected something different from this movie. Both thematically and visually. It certainly has its good (and funny) scenes. The main character is very likeable. And the tongue in cheek references to slashers are good, too. But the story was weird and too meta for my tastes. And visually this was all over the place, and I was partly really turned off by the CGI and the kitschy landscapes. So, not quite my cup of blood.
Resilience
I stand under a warm autumn sun and look back and see a dark cloud, seemingly resting still in the sky. I know it is moving — getting slightly closer. But yet the day is still beautiful. There is light to appreciate.
After spots of rain, the cloud blew away and the blue in the sky where there was grey marked a new beginning.
