• New toy! LilyPad Arduinos September 20, 2012
  So, I decided to try and put together a couple of things I really enjoy, playing with hardware and knitting. Yeah, you heard right, knitting. Looking around on the internet I come to find the LilyPad arduino out of MIT media labs. Oh MIT, you have all the fun toys. […]
• Useful new tool: Rescue Time and Github Data Driven Documents August 27, 2012
  I’ve been working a while on several pages with visualizations of important quantitative data.

  There’s just so much to be said about this conference, I don’t think it can be contained in a post. So CHI2012 this year was pretty awesome. Held in Austin Texas, and even though the water made me sick for some reason, still a fun experience. Also, I didn’t take […]
• Minneapolis Airport on my way to CHI2012 May 9, 2012
  My first blog post will be discussing an interesting interactivity that I saw on my way to CHI2012 conference in Austin Texas. I took some really awful pictures of it, and I will have to learn to take better pictures as I go with this blog. I just found it […]
