Hello← return home

I am passionate about many things. Some of which include photography, motorcycles, design and discovering craftsmanship.

Some of the projects I have documented here: Kawasaki KLR 650 Rebuild.

Easily preview iOS icon designs on your iPhone or iPad. I'm really happy that someone made this.
Pretty inspirational. It would be absolutely insane to be apart of something like Tumblr from the beginning; seeing it grow into the huge site that it is now.
"We’re all familiar with products that are the result of misguided goals. That’s not innovation; it’s more like innobation:4 unproductive, aimless differentiation for its own sake. Onanistic design. Tail wagging."
Some really amazing and stunning photographs. Seems almost other-worldly yet surprisingly nostalgic.
Intriguing documentary about a secretive—what we would call today—street photographer whose stash of prints and negatives was discovered after her death.
Pretty interesting and fresh take on portrait photos.
Moto inspiration! Bikeexif never fails when it comes to posting amazing bikes. This is an especially clean example of a resto-mod.
I think knowing basic structure and organization of code is fairly important to being a competent interactive designer. There's a lot of people that disagree.
Manipulating non-newtonian fluid with Processing and Arduino.
Plenty of companies copy the end result, but hardly anyone copies their process. Why?
"Even without knowledge of the deep inner workings of the app, it just feels old. Adobe keeps adding more functionality, even some performance tweaks like GPU acceleration, but the whole thing often feels one feature short of collapse."
If you're a car nerd, you automatically love or hate the Fast and the Furious franchise. I'm not a sports fan (or sports blog fan), but this play-by-play analysis is pretty spot on.
"'Eleven stripes for a company in Chapter 11?' American Airlines' new livery"
Design and patent fun-fest!
Very interesting look into google's design process. Seems fairly fragmented for better or worse.
"If you want to see the future of software UI design, look to the history of print design."
I'm really happy that mobile teams are really pushing to make style guides for third-party developers. Not sure how I feel about how gesture heavy things are becoming as there's no real convention that even has settled into (besides pinch-to-zoom).
On the topic of "fixing" font-smoothing.
"Tired of being bombarded with constant requests to share content on social media, bestow ratings, leave comments, and generally “join in on the discussion,” the nation’s Internet users demanded substantially less interactivity this week."
