Week 1:Nothing much to report beside administrative things. Last year I
spent this time last year frantically finding an apartment so that I'd
have somewhere to live during the production period of the program. This
year I've just moved to a new apar...
Alright, this has been a week of technical difficulties, which is fine,
that's how you know you're making stuff!Basically I've been trying to
mock up a room prototype that is *exceedingly* simple by design, and

Oof. A few days late. It has been a long week. I'll upload another video
post at my regularly scheduled Thursday.This week a few things

to check out a demo and then have an exte...

still finding my rhythm. The Launch Pad project is in a frustrating
stage. Really not happy with the team...
This week was really taxing, kind of hit with a bout of depression due
to some unfortunate news. Anyway, I'm back in Madison with about 10 more
days of teaching, followed by a conference at UW that I now have some
responsibility for (surprise!). I'm ...
I'm in LA finishing up my teaching gig. It's been a wonderful week being

sat with the work for about 3 hours...
