Words & Letters
While building this post, I made so many dumb mistakes. I’ve made them before. I know where the speed bumps are. But still, I hit every one of them today. I could be tired. I might be distracted, trying to go too fast, or maybe it’s something else entirely. Too much on my plate? Nothing […]
It’s been a busy month but somehow, someway I’ve managed to do some of what I planned to do. I’ve still got another phase post to create. I need to write my 2024 book reading recap. The February issue of the Skate Book Club newsletter needs to happen. And, last and most important, Tails Of… […]
The internet is still an amazing place to get lost. Sometimes, I stumble into an old familiar neighborhood and get a little deja vu. This happened in a very pleasant way this week when I found a music video (that I thought was new) from the band OK Go. OK Go became famous for doing […]
Theres a lot of bad things happening in the world, in the US, and in cities nearby. I try to celebrate the good things: beauty, innovation, and joy of craft in these weekly link collections. It’s hard to ignore the chaos outside. We all compartmentalize things to survive–it’s a survival tactic, however flawed. The link […]
Time flies. Days turn into weeks, into months, into years, and it’s easy to lose track of it all. I’ve been at this design game for a long time now. From my production designer days to managing teams and everything in between–I still find it interesting (which is good). That’s not to say each job […]
I can’t believe the month is two-thirds over. The new year just started–where did these weeks go? I’ve been pulling (or reposting) all of my Medium content over to this site. It’s tedious but kind of fun to look back on my past efforts. I’m not grabbing every week’s link posts, just the more crafted […]
Welcome to 2025. It’s a lot like 2024 so far. The main difference is that you must remember to put a five at the end of the date. The links are new, the layout got a little refresh, and that’s about it. There’s nothing new to promote aside from the amazing work below by other […]
One last batch before the year ends. Since I took last week off, this one is chock full. Hopefully, you are doing something fun on New Year’s Eve, and you find these links later in the week. If you are looking for even more, I quietly dropped another Phase post last week. See you all […]
I didn’t think I’d have time today to get this done. Work, side projects, and life in general have been draining my energy from the link show. Whether it’s pure habit or the combination of habit and systems I’ve put in place—somehow, it got done. Enjoy the links. Here’s hoping next week is calmer. Architecture […]
The fact that it’s December feels like we’re at the end of something–a big milestone that we call a year. I put pressure on myself to get things done. It’s fabricated. There are no implications if I don’t post this. If I don’t create another Phase post (I did this last night–better late than never). […]
