I know, I know. I’m killing you with cuteness, eh? The Internet sure does offer some pretty awesome stuff. But the digital age has me living four lives (work, school, personal, and freelance). Every now and again, I need a cute kitten picture to help me get through all the theory, the spreadsheets, and freak-out […]

Although wishing for 4 more hours in a day is futile, it probably wouldn’t be enough time for all the things I actually need to do (for work, school, and freelance projects). Yes. Call me crazy. Some of my friends think I’m pretty insane for trying to support a balance between the three but I […]

Wow, that is some powerful imagery, eh? It’s true. I’ve been so swamped with work, both professionally and personally. The hectic schedule between my 9-5 and all the writing assignments has really taught me to manage my time well, organize, mobilize, and learn how to say ‘no’ to certain things.

After reading an interview with creator of Colossal: Art & Design blog, Chris Jobson, on Hyperallergic, I have a bit more perspective on how to shape my blogging and art writing for the new year. It’s a relativitely short interview and quite informative if you’re looking into creating and building your own virtual space. I’m also taking a few days […]

Although I’ve known about Soundcloud for quite some time and listened to local artists and composers on this really awesome site, I decided to venture into something new — start my own account and create audio blog posts! Would that be considered audlogging? Ah, nevermind. There’s no ring to it. Anyway… Primarily, I wanted to […]

This is a quote from the movie Contagion. Elliot Gould plays scientist, Ian Sussman, in the film. You want to know what I say to that statement. Bullsh*t!

This cartoon about blogging was originally published in the New Yorker in 2005 and created by Alex Gregory. Think about that…2005. Blogging has been around for decades though. Technology moves fast and I’m sure many of you weren’t on the internet as much in 2005 (or maybe you were, tech folks, obviously, but my mother […]
