- How Not to Get a Job
I just found this while cleaning out my computer. I think it was the beginning of a resume. Probably a good thing it was never finished.
- New Photo Site
I’ve been putting a bit more energy into photography recently finally got around to updating the photo site and giving it a much needed redesign. We’re focusing a bit more on portraiture and commissioned work, which probably means that more photographic oddities will end up here.
- Quick! Wedding Photography!
Just a quick shot from a wedding last weekend.
- Dirt Off Your Shoulders
This is an early version of a video system I’m working on. I originally wanted to make something that looked like it was communicating when really everything was just random — sort of like if the aliens in Close Encounters of the Third Kind had used video to talk. I was working on it while listening to music and noticed that it appeared to be syncing even though it wasn’t at all. I think it has to do with how easily we see patterns, how rhythmic the music is, and how fast the video changes.
So, just an early example. I’m working on another version that uses MIDI for live manipulation.
- Best thing ever said
I was taking pictures in the park yesterday, and this girl said to me, “I’m a sleepy panda. [pause] Because I came from China.”
A few more after the jump.

I used Python to get the parts of speech for each word int he first chapter of Madame Bovary. I fed that to Processing and had it write random poetry-ish lines. The background plots the location of the words in the original text.
