Not just another golden calf.

The Giants in the Land

One thing about that fateful year: more than two thirds of my life, I lived with that giant in the desert, never knowing his name, never knowing his crime, never knowing his goodness, never knowing the pleasure of his countenance, never knowing the gruesome horror of his face, his hands, his soul.  Never knowing his [...]

Response to a Malaise Too Common

I’m disappointed that you list Mormons under the heading “cult” on your website.  It’s a sad status to lower yourself to denigrating us thus.  Why are Evangelicals so preoccupied with proclaiming Mormons under this heading? Do you realize what it sounds like to our ears?  It’s become a disgusting epithet, tantamount to racial invective slurs. [...]

#wcnyc

Perty cool.  This weekend I was able to go and meet some of the founders of the gadgetry running this here blog. I wouldn’t say I’m particularly tied to WordPress as a system, however, I’ve taken a lot of interest in BuddyPress lately, what with a pet project, Arx Poetica, which I’ve built on top [...]

I can’t not sit still

And not be utterly excited about this: http://www.thebutteredslice.com/wordpress/archives/119 Even just the raw, homemade version of Andy 3.0 served up is like fresh manna to the taste. Yum. “And when there was no crawdad to be found, we ate sand.”

A Post for Cu Mo

[Please note this post was in response to a question posted on my Facebook wall by a friend, so instead of raiding his Facebook wall, I decided to post my response here and direct him this way.] Posted on Facebook: Just hit on the definition for what I believe will be the next major generational [...]

Google Code Project “arx-diso”

Or just “ARX”: Animate Regenerative Expression. So I created a new Google Code project for a crazy idea that’s been brewing in my head.  This post explains just a little bit of the idea, as does the Google Code project page. Right now it’s still a little vague in my head, but I figure I [...]

I’ve Been Published

Yay! Read the article here at Mormon Artist. My sister also had an interview published. Family affair: my brother took the photos for her article and mine.  Fun! Kind of fun side note, the New York Times picked up on the magazine (just mentioning it in passing).

Sunday’s Muse

Hopefully the first of many more amusements.

Arxology and Artistic Objects in New Media

I came up with this little diagram today, as an expression of some random things that have been floating around in my head.  Obviously, this is just fun, and probably a little in the clouds, but I like the simplicity of the expression of these ideas, and, actually, they seem to comprise something a little [...]

Well, that was a first…

Note to self.  Backup databases.  I just deleted my entire WordPress database.  Accidentally.  Fortunately, Google had a backup of the pages that I most wanted. DUMB.
