Some Good Places to Start
Now
Answering the question, “What are you up to right now?”
Updated March 20, 2024
Colorful
I’ve always loved colorful things. I think it might have started with The Muppets. Here’s a bunch of colorful posts.
The Chapters of Your Life
This started as a brief presentation about intent and photography that my good friend Erik turned into a short film as a birthday surprise during the pandemic.
Creative Mornings Talk
This video from 2013 is long, but lays out who I am and why I think design is awesome. I was nervous as heck through the whole thing.
A few favorite things
Books, movies, video games, music and random other things all mixed together in a visual, sortable grid.
Say Cheese
This tag is for all the times folks pose for the photo.
Great Discontent Interview
An old conversation that fills in the blanks of my career and whatnot in an interview format. My tip of the hat to Ryan and Tina for the moment.
Browse
Been using this category thing to get around the photo journal. Adding here for easy access.
My old website
I refuse to throw anything away (digitally at least). Here’s my old site cobbled together with spacer gifs and tables.
Recent Links
PhotoPrism
"AI-Powered Photos App for the Decentralized Web" (or to run locally!). I'm very interested in the search features that allow discovery by place, color, people, things, etc. Have not tried yet, but I'm gathering tidbits! / via Erin Sparling
How vinyl records are made
The Washington Post goes deep with a visual essay on how records are made. I've seen videos and glimpses at Third Man Records, but appeciate the prose mixed with photographs and video clips here. (Also nice to read that production capacity to press records is increasing.) / Thanks Shel!
Colour Contrast Checker
Whenever posting a journal entry I pick a color at random to be the link/accent for my site. Kay mentioned I wasn't hitting accessibility standards and shared this tool by Alex Clapperton to check it. (I'm still sus of accessible color theory science, but I shall endeavor to hit higher marks!)
Copilot
Since Mint shuttered I was wondering how to sort budgeting stuff and then saw @Swissmiss share "Wow! A budgeting/money tracking app I actually enjoy using"
Not old. Vintage.
On this site, optimized gloriously for the big screen (non-mobile), Michele Giorgi and team showcase the restoration of an original era Macintosh. / thanks Kay
Seating with built in cat tunnel
Gasping and clutching pearls wanting this to be a real thing one could buy. / via Present & Correct
Can I show my friends?
Katie Mansfield illustrates the power of social media to find new ways to play a sad trombone louder.
notes.art
Each day Chris Silverman draws art in the Notes app. I honestly didn't realize there were any drawing tools there but even if I did, I don't see any way I could approach the level of awesomeness of these works. Here's a video about the project. / via a reply to Katherine Yang on Mastodon
Katherine Yang’s poetic website
Tranquil and delight-filled, I love this personal site that contains much goodness in exploration.
