Right here

Meanwhile, I have a new place to live (pretty sure) in North Berkeley! I am building a server so as to retire my current one and reduce the number of boxes I have… and life continues.

Also — Wordpress 2.5 == w00t.

And PicLens is AMAZING if you want to view photos.

You can find them here.

I also ordered myself 14 prints, of photos new and old, off Flickr to hang on my wall.

Woot!

I have new pictures up! 34 of them even. (Finally….)

This covers the rest of summer, Yahoo Hack Day, the New Pornographers concert, and the Embarcadero Lighting Ceremony.

I think this brings me current. It’s good to be current.

Go. Comment. Have fun. I’m going to sleep.

Saw the incoming freshman from GV to Cal this weekend. That made me feel old; along with all the festivities surrounding graduation. Next year I graduate. This scares me.

The past week has been a mixed bag with regard to dancing. Last Thursday was awesome. This Thursday was a totally off night for me. Saturday wasn’t bad at all. Sunday (in Sac) was kinda off again. Le sigh. I start running LoS on Saturday for the summer. And then I move. All while looking for a job.

It should all work out okay. I’d feel better if I were on a more even-keel with dancing, and less worrisome in general. Staying at home actually doesn’t help that much, because I feel kinda powerless. My life is a screen session, and I’m currently detached. I’d be happier (and more stressed) if I were back in the driver’s seat.

One of my side projects is bringing back to Berkeley all of my old highschool photography, so as to scan it up in Soda. Hell, I haven’t shot film SINCE, almost.

We’ll see how it all goes. I’m going home to Berkeley in less than 24, so I’ll be back soon enough.

How do you measure, measure a year? (so far)

My camera ticked over to 1K today at LoS.

Coming soon to a photostream near you.

In my news cycle this week was this article on Improving your photography through classical art. I took the time to try it out today (and by “time”, I mean “five minutes”) and applied the first colorful art piece I could think of offhand, Seurat’s A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte to an appropriate swing photo with similar colors. I find the theme of the pieces similar.

This is the result, “A Saturday Afternoon Dancing on the Plaza of Sproul”: IMG_0521-SeuratDimanceColors-SideBySide

Pretty cool, huh?
