TED / Three +…
Okay, so I've been busy, and trying to fill out the remaining days has taken time. Days, right? Daze, right? Like a week or so, really. And there's more, too. More learnings -- and of course, so much more learning that it took me a couple of daze to actually compile...
Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.
Where there's smoke, there's fire. I've always been a lover of fire. And smoke. It's a family thing. My father is a pyrophiliac and he got me started in loving things that are on fire. Not in any sense of destruction, per se; it's more about the beauty of the flame....
She
There was all ways the myth of the beginning in her, that was un-named and known as force of making, Matrix and in that mystery, found, burdened, measured then lost in the fool that was man. The scent of the beginning drifted away, yet remains [ p e r f u m e ] in the...

TED / Day one : L O V E

Jeff Han / New interface | TED
HI. I thought about you when exploring this idea. Imagine large scale hand and fingertip gestures in managing, enlarging, reducing and exploring digital imagery files, transparently, on a massive screen, shared in action, two people, with multiple imagery controls in...
Dimensioned drawing: coming to life
See this? I was thinking about you. And I thought about this idea. ------ Remember this book? Harold and the Purple Crayon. I've had a dream about this idea - the notion of drawing something, that moves and comes to life in a breathed animation. You might have seen...
Notes on The Matrix design
There's another symbolic value to the O and the 1 beyond the nature of the digital translation of content and interpretation. O, the curved enclosure -- is, in sequence etymologically -- from Sanskrit -- the sunya; Arabic, sifr; Medieval Latin, ciphra; the cipher, the...
