It’s probably obvious A.I. is not in use here #
My personal website uses too much punctuation, probably wrong — across a photo journal, collection of links, (& other random stuff).

Many things (to celebrate)
Some Places to Start
About me
A quick intro.
The Kitchen Drawer
A bunch of lists, tidbits and miscellany strewn about this site — a sitemap for things that get lost.
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.
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
Friendster is back, and has a twist
Mike Carson bought the Friendster domain, secured the trademark and launched an iOS app with a unique requirement for adding friends — you have to connect IRL. And there's some other features baked in to nudge keeping up with appearances. / via Brad Barrish
GENER8ION – STORM starring Yung Lean
I suggest starting with the music video (it's over 7 minutes long, but stick around 4:15 or scrub if you must). Then go deep with Stereogum to learn more about the lineage and creative folks involved this epic piece of art.
Parachute
Oh, this looks like a way easier iCloud Photo backup option for simple folk like myself — it's point-and-click with easier options for target backups. / tip of the hat to Mike with the tip
XOXO Explore
Andy&Andy gathered goodness from the many years of XOXO festivals and wrapped it all up in a wonderful digital archive (with a pretty sweet shop to boot). More about the new site and lots of links with thanks on their blog post.
Is it possible to carve a Bodoni out of Potatoes?
Hannes von Döhren decided to find out if those thin serifs would translate to the starchy tuber with help from other potato carvers. They ended up with HVD Bodedo. / hat tip Tyler Sticka (who has a great site, btw)
The Long Reply
I will not wait any longer to share this bright spot of web surfing from the other day. David Friedman of Ironic Sans shares a time delayed social interaction and some other examples for good measure.
Matt’s Travel Tips
There's more than a couple things of note here. First, Matt Haughey freshened up his site and it's lovely. Second, he shared a bunch of practical and technical tidbits that could not only make travel better, but your home tech stack better.
Your Name In Landsat
NASA has a tool to type in a word and see it spelled out in Landsat imagery of Earth. This made the rounds a few years back but the URL is different so that means I will share it again! / via Chuck
