new bike
Finally got my recently-purchased Bianchi up and running, after replacing the handlebars, stem, headset, brake cables, tires, and pedals. Lots of fun, as I had to figure out how to do most of that myself. But it looks so good! And it’s 15 years newer than my last bike! So…

Redesign!
And like magic, maxelman.com looks completely different. I believe this is number 6 or so? Maybe with some digging, and archive.org, I can make a little “history of” page. That could be fun.

Happy Belated Birthday, Alfred
While I might be a tad late on this, it appears the crazy success of The Dark Knight brought some Michael Caine attention to the media. And thus, I realized I missed his 75th birthday. Shame. In honor of one of my favorite actors though, a picture. Just stare at…

KZSC Santa Cruz Rickrolled 3 Counties
Like today really needed more rickrolling, I got KZSC to play everyone’s favorite song, “Never Gonna Give You Up” to its tri-county audience of the Monterey Bay area. Sadly, the DJ cut the song off after about 40 seconds, but I suppose we can forgive him for that. It’s not…

iphone wallpaper
Maybe it’s just me, but I really do hate the clutter of adding wallpapers to an iPhone the traditional way – you have to add photos to iPhoto, make a new album, have things be a mess… Anyone else? No? Just me? Well, fine then. On the off chance that…

open studios
Yesterday was open studios here at UCSC, meaning that as as Art major, I’m just about done with this quarter. Rock. I’ve been working on two big projects – the photo series that I’ve already posted images from, and a computer-art piece that’s slightly hard to explain. I made a…
