Well, October is here, and some things didn’t get done. My new little monthly project is live – Phase.001. But the Skate Book Club isn’t quite there yet (any day now). It will happen, all in due time. This post isn’t about all that. We’re here for the links… Web Design/UX/UI The Psychology Behind McDonald’s […]
Phase.001 is live. My other new project is getting there. The links continue… Photography The DisciplesSeries of 56 photo montages of music fans outside concerts Web Design/UX The over-confetti-ing of digital experiencesHave we gone too far, and how do we make surprise & delight moments special again?

The link show continues. And, along with the weekly gems, I’ve got a new, more personal, monthly joining the fray. It’s called ‘Phase’ because aren’t we all going through a phase? I had an RPG game phase, a bucket hat phase, and a long hair phase. Facts, but nothing lasted forever. Maybe this new project […]
A short week, while appreciated, always throws the week into some chaos. This week, I’ve got just seven links. I’m going to say these are all quality over quantity. Let’s leave it at that, enjoy!

Summer is winding down. It’s been a hot one, so I’m looking forward to cooler temperatures. Fall, sweatshirt weather, and everything that comes with it have always been a favorite of mine. I live in California, so the seasons aren’t always so apparent. Enjoy another random batch of links! See you in September. 3D/Animation Watch […]
I just learned about the concept of akrasia. I’ve read about it before, but somehow it didn’t hit me then. I honestly don’t remember reading about it. I know it’s part of ‘Atomic Habits’ by James Clear. The concept: The state of acting against your better judgment–when you do one thing even though you know […]
It’s been a busy month. I can’t keep track of everything. In fact, I’m not even trying to. I focus on the task in front of me. Everything else is unimportant. This is not exactly a zen approach. It’s a method of survival. The link show must go on, that’s the task right now. Data […]
I’ve been publishing these posts in various formats, on multiple platforms, and with different models (I won’t dare say business) for over eight years. The first post was technically on May 15th, 2016. It was a humble beginning. I promptly forgot to post again until October, 28th, 2016. I was still creating the content for […]
I was lucky enough to attend Config (the Figma design conference) last week and this week is the 4th of July. Work is getting done… somehow. The machine never stops. Take a breath, walk, or whatever you do to give yourself a break. Architecture Fritz Tiny HomesMore living per square inch: Refined tiny homes for […]
I just read that one of my favorite sources is shutting down. It was a daily newsletter that focused on web design but always had creative surprises and rarely missed a day. There’s no point in calling it out (until, or if, they relaunch) but I understand why. This work, or is it a hobby […]
