    Super Duper Itunes Analysis

    Fair warning, I’m a bit of a data geek. And I’m stubbornly persistant when I come up with an idea that I’m curious about seeing through. So when I thought about the growth rate of my music collection within iTunes, I simply had to figure out a way to graph it.

    Mixed Technology

    I’ve had a package of Polaroid type 59 instant 4×5 film in my fridge for five years now and decided to use it today. After picking up a set of Photojojo iPhone lenses from Doc Pop (courtesy of a Postagram contest), Kristan and I headed to Glen Canyon to have a picnic and shoot some…

    200 days of 2011

    This is the last major milestone in my photo-a-day project as I’m taking a break for the foreseeable future. Shooting a picture every day is tough work, and forcing myself to do it is no longer as productive and helpful as it once was.  665 days in the past two years isn’t too shabby though, if I…

    A Story And A Picture

    Do you like photography? How about short stories? What about awesome amounts of creativity? Then you should probably check out A Story And A Picture – a new collaboration with Christopher Hermelin. I take the pictures and he writes a 1000 words a few days later. It’s a good system that makes for great results.

  • The Bonneville Salt Flats

    The Bonneville Salt Flats

    Driving to San Francisco from Utah on I-80, you’ll pass through the Bonnevile Salt Flats shortly before crossing the Nevada state line. There’s a rest stop smack in the middle of them, and it’s definitely worth stopping for. Pull over, stretch your legs, grab your camera and take some pictures. At least that’s what we…

  • Two Week Challenge

    Two Week Challenge

    My housemate Christopher and I are challenging each other every two weeks to keep things exciting this year. My first two week challenge of 2010. The challenge: make a lip-sync video to Franz Ferdinand’s “Take Me Out” starring at least 10 people I didn’t know personally. I started out in Dolores Park, and rocked out…
