God Bless Ray Charles - 1930-2004

Truly an icon... musically and socially. A genius of soul, R&B and Rock & Roll.
Time to get the box set.

RIP brother Ray - We love you.

Fibonacci Numbers, the Golden section and the Golden String

Fibonacci Numbers, the Golden section and the Golden String
I have this idea for a type face based on the "Golden Mean"... and this site seems to be a good place to start for an understanding of the Fibonacci sequence and the magic numbers ±0·61803 39887... and ±1·61803 39887

Gallery of Computation | generative artifacts

Gallery of Computation | generative artifacts is another site from the amazing Jared Tarbell. Many of the designs here utilize the Processing Java applet engine to create the imagery. Gallery-quality prints available for purchase... I'll have to consider if we actually ever 'decorate'.

Amazing Flash Experiments: Levitated | the Exploration of Computation

Levitated | the Exploration of Computation is a fabulous site - complete with downloadable source code of many of the Flash experiments.

Hats off to Jason Tarbell!

Boxes and Arrows: The Design behind the Design
Boxes and Arrows is such a great site for the UXA's of the world... So I'm christening my "Blogger" button in the Google Toolbar with a link to it.
Long live Christina Wodtke! May I someday learn how to pronounce here last name...

First Post

I've never used Blogger before, but I love Google so I'm giving it a shot. (I've ignored the successful install of MT at jonashley.com long enough;)

The Blogger icon is sitting in my Google Toolbar every minute of the day, so I'm going to pay it some attention.
