I always thought it was clever that when talking about my favorite creative act (taking/making photos) that I described photography as an act of deletion. In putting that rectangular frame around an object, landscape, animal, person, you are essentially removing everything outside the frame. With so much fervor of the âpowerâ of generative AI to [âŚ]
Just some sharing from the morning. Above is haiku with the one-word prompt of “frost” via Mastodon and below is an illustration from the morning prompt at DS106 Daily Create to use the last name of someone famous, connected to a common ob...
Tag, we are it. I love me free form tagging. A bit before there were #hashtags there was the Web2.0 frenzy of folksonomy, and wealth that Wikipedia is, leads me to the birth of a term used quite widely. It rounds counter to the rigidity and forced rules of Official Metadata, in that people, groups, [âŚ]
September 17, 2024. My teeth, up close. Started today productively, meeting and work, but then was at the dentist to get a post for a dental implant. Took a couple tries (ack) but I survived. https://flic.kr/p/2qh5Yuz
âWhere is Riveri? I try to call him since, three days, but no one answers the phone!â Tom asks in a quiet upset voice while entering Sisleyâs office. âI will try to get him on the phone,â Sisley rushes. âWell, Iâll be back at three, yes try to get him and tell him, I will⌠Continue reading A message on the voicemail box
September 14, 2024. Long bike ride today; this was right near the end, in evening. Visited both Dunvegan and Maxville. So warm! https://flic.kr/p/2qgCjQo
September 13, 2024. Friday. Beautiful warm day, so after a productive day coding I went for a bike ride. Must keep descriptions short or IFTTT fails. https://flic.kr/p/2qgErwj
September 11, 2024. The moss-covered apple tree trunk outside my office building in the city. It was the first of three office days this week, a result of the uninformed and arbitrary decision made to reduce work-from-home. Traffic was awful and waste...
September 10, 2024. Here's a serving of my curry with green onions and, buried under the spicy goodness, a portion of Atlantic Canada salmon. So delicious! A second day of working on a Mastodon client from the home office. https://flic.kr/p/2qga7BY
September 9, 2024. Each week we get a new batch of vegetables and that prompts me to cook them up as a spicy curry. Here's this weeks' sweet potato and carrot curry. Worked from home today, building a simple Mastodon client. https://flic.kr/p/2qga4BK
September 9, 2024. It was fungus day on our weekly forest walk. We went out to Rogers Pond in Marlborough Forest in rural south-west Ottawa. Very few animals or birds. The light was low and I wasn't really set up for dark fungus pics. Evening was spen...
September 7, 2024. The RedBlacks played the Argos this afternoon. A rare day game, it could have been fantastic, but is was cold and poured rain for pretty much the entire game. Nice to see a convincing win, though. Got home, went to sleep right away....
September 6, 2024. I wanted to share a photo from the Jimmy Carr and Jim Jeffries show tonight, but all I'm allowed to show is this. The show was great but it would have been nice to have something more to remember it by. The evening followed a great ...
September 4, 2024. This rose is found in the parking lot by the Costco where I went for lunch. Office day, which I spent heads-down all day writing 'Why Free Learning Needs Free Artificial Intelligence'. https://flic.kr/p/2qeQt9e
