And the midterm season dries up

It’s 2:15 in the morning on a Thursday night (or Friday morning, depending on your point of view). I’m sitting on my longboard in the PATH station, typing furiously on my laptop as I await Ye Olde PATHe train. I am covered in sweat and sawdust, my hands are burned from soldering and [...]

Thank you, owner of ITP locker #237, whoever you are.

Progressions…

I’m taking a break from soldering to blog.

The chair progresses still — now with our supply of 120 BRAND NEW SUPERBRIGHT LEDs!!!

Who owns what?

This week’s CommLab readings centered around what I think is one of the most fascinating subjects a commercial artist (or any artist who ever wants to sell anything, really) has to deal with today — who owns what, how much is it worth, and how do you go about distributing what’s yours?
