This weekend was a lot of projects on top of scul betamission. I got really wet riding in the rain on Saturday, but I still had a lot of fun.
I mounted a wire on the back of bunny boogie and dropped it off at the somerville museum for the artist’s choice show for somerville […]

you may remember i wrote about why Happy Feet makes me sad, how i get frustrated by the movie because it implies that all we need to do to save the world is make people see what’s wrong. I don’t believe that, because people look at what’s wrong right in the face and don’t […]

Ever listen to This American Life? I highly recommend it, or at least pick through for show themes that pique your interest. Today I feel somewhat assuaged over any kind of occupational frustrations I might have. Why? Because I’m not an astronaut. Episode #329 “Nice Work if You Can Get It” opens with a conversation […]

I’ve been listening to a new Pandora station that I’ve titled “Can you Feel It (Shame).” The songs that input the station are all based on funky disco stuff that generally makes me happy and productive, and while i sit at my desk i get to bop back and forth while doing work.
Occasionally the tune […]

This comic inspired a friend to calculate and construct and […]

For some reason I never really considered how old Prince is… he’s an amazing musician who i absolutely adore, but I never really thought about it. I am often amazed by artists with amazing longevity and independent creativity (which I was thinking about over the weekend while listening to Queen). I hadn’t realized that Prince’s […]

Clearly the various shows giving information on the presidential nomination process feel like they are repeating themselves, because it seems like “scathing” is no longer a unique and effective word. The mud slinging is so common that it was time to activate thesaurus power, and as any high school student knows… the more syllables the […]

i finished reading a book last night, the first novel i’ve read in a very long time, and definitely the first something “for fun” that i’ve read in years that wasn’t a comic book and didn’t somehow relate to my field of study.
Boy Toy is a story about high school experiences, surviving abuse, and growing […]

Here’s a little entertainment overview from my point of view.
Of late I’ve been watching Kino’s Journey. I think it’s a beautiful show, if a little out there and bizarre. Of course, what do you expect from overly introspective anime? I made a friend watch the “cute bunny episode” last night… and if you are aware […]

There’s been some psychological studies on men and women looking at estimated as opposed to measured intelligence. While there was a really controversial study out of Canada last year saying men had higher average intelligence, more far-reaching studies actually estimate that on the average men and women are equal over the population as a whole, […]
