I’m a few months late with this post but I saw some butterflies in the Mission here in San Francisco just a few blocks from my house. The bush that they were so into has since been trimmed back. I’ve seen a few more butterflies up on Bernal Heights Hill and at Holly Park. Also three not-so-wild racoons in the Haight. San Francisco has some wildlife!
(If anyone can positively identify the butterfly species, please let me know!)

I got a Suzuki SV650 a few months ago. Quite a nice ride! Lots of torque and very friendly. A little too friendly as I managed to low-side it exactly 10 days after taking ownership. It was a wonderful day in the hills and alas my reality got checked at the end of a vigorous ride. No harm to rider and nothing more than cosmetic damage to the bike. About the softest I could have come down all considered.
Been riding quite a bit easier since then. Be careful out there in the rain and debris-strewn corners!

The Three Drops installation that I worked on last summer is featured on the Nanoscale Informal Science Education ArtNano website.

I worked for Sona Research last summer and am now (as of 6 months ago… wow) Senior Immersive Media Engineer at Snibbe Interactive. We have quite an amazing lineup of projects we’re putting out.
Already worked on and installed 3 pieces at The Franklin Institute in Philadelphia as well as a few projects that aren’t launched yet!
If you’re an engineer or computer scientist with an aesthetic sense perhaps you’d like to work with me.

This past July I drove from San Francisco to Anchorage and beyond. Spent Canada day on a beach outside Vancouver and did a three day kayaking trip through icebergs in Prince William Sound.
I took a prototype GigaPan unit with me and took a few rather large panoramas.
