I’m changing my Year 34 project. The goal was to take a picture a day. But, I’m finding that to be more difficult than I thought. The main problem is that I don’t go very many interesting places on a regular basis. Most days I spend more time working on my computer than going somewhere. …
I heard about this short film back when I was in school at the Art Institute, but I didn’t get around watching it until today. That’s probably a good thing because I would have been totally disappointed in my own work after viewing this. It’s a fully computer-generated film, created by a single person, Alex…
I attended the American Legion Rodeo last weekend in Augusta, Montana. View 21 of my favorite shots from the day.
Yesterday was my birthday. I turned 34-yrs old. I had a pretty good day. Slept late. Got a birthday phone call from my Mom. Then, a video call from my younger brother. I got to see my niece and nephew, although I sometimes think they are more amused with seeing themselves on the screen than…
The following video was my last visual effects project during my brief time at AI Portland. Once again, I was the actor for the project. My laptop made another debut as well. Try not to judge me too harshly for running Windows 7 on a MacBook Pro. My part was shot in the green screen…

I’ve had my Motorola Droid for a little over a month now and I’ve had the chance to try quite a few apps. Here’s a list of my favorites in no particular order, not including the stock apps that are installed by default (ie. Gmail, Google Maps, Facebook, YouTube, etc.): 1. KeePassDroid (free) – a…
My second term has started here at the Art Institute of Portland. I had my first class yesterday afternoon, Typography I. I dropped it immediately after class ended. It didn’t sound fun at all and I was the least bit interested in learning about typography. I also dropped my Color Theory class, which I would…
