Sel realization is not very cheap. at the time when you are making mistakes one after the other you need someone, a solid man of self-belief and discipline to hold you and take out of that gut you are in. Someone who can introduce discipline, integrity and some principles in your life. Writing the word […]

“Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they... Continue Reading →

For today’s daily create we had to source an image from John Johnston‘s experimental random flickr image blender (which does just that, blends random pictures from flicker) and from there create a Self-Help Book Title… Okay, I couldn’t stop at just a title, but hey, this book and approach (if not already written and on the shelves), … Continue reading Daily Create #1588; Turn @johnjohnston’s Random Image Pairing into a Self-Help Book Title

Had to go a little deep today… It’s one of those days where life just needs to be put into perspective; where hard lessons are being learned; where battered and bruised you pick yourself up; you dust yourself off; you resolve to move forward onto bigger and brighter ventures where people are worthy of your … Continue reading DS106 Daily Create: Give us our daily creative freedom, or give us a paraprosdokian

Giant Flying Bugs, aka Electric Light Bugs aka Toe-Biters Giant flying bugs —- I was watching my kid at football practice the other night.  On the track, in the air and on the bleachers we saw these giant flying bugs.  They were huge and dangerous looking creatures.  I’m not usually afraid of picking up creatures […]

I myself have been “toast” before, and I had a really good time, although I would never condone anyone repeating the mistakes of misguided youth, toast is good, especially with the right accoutrements… When the concept of the toasted self arrived today as the daily create challenge of DS106, I wondered among tangents, and was moving to a … Continue reading The Toasted Self – the daily create #1583 (or just 3 for me)

“Beyond Binary” Documentary. BBC World Services. April 2016.

I am honored to share that insights from my research were heard around the world for two minutes on August 23rd, 2016, in the BBC World Services “Beyond Binary” documentary. If you care to listen me especially, I am a minute 10. You can hear me speak about my new research on trans use of Tumblr. For about two years, I’ve been collecting data on the use of the #ftm hashtag and, for a shorter time, #mtf hashtag on Tumblr. I came upon the world of trans Tumblr, as I call it, in 2010 when I was choosing my own new name. I found a tightly-knit network of trans people who are otherwise unanchored through their geographic diaspora. You can click here to read more about that research project.
