As I recently posted on twitter, I wasn’t entirely successful posting a photo a day on flickr (mostly because I take way too many photos that need some level of editing and insist on posting them in chronological order, etc., etc., etc.). But thanks to an iPhone app called Everyday I’ve been capturing an image of yours truly almost everyday since buying the app in early 2011. I wasn’t as strict as I should have been framing the photos, so it’s a much more jittery video than it could have been. And except for my hair growing out (and being wonderfully styled) the passage of time isn’t as obvious and will probably require a much longer time span than just one year. Oh boy.

On a much more beautiful and celebratory note, Kathy Craven’s boyfriend, Mike Cardwell posted the following video highlighting how they celebrated the coming of the new year. Enjoy.

This is how my family and I spent the last few hours of 2011. This is an in-camera effect using bokeh. No animation of any kind was used in this video.

Best viewed Full Screen.

Thanks to everyone who helped on this project!

Coldplay’s haunting classic ‘The Scientist’ is performed by country music legend Willie Nelson for the soundtrack of the short film entitled, “Back to the Start.” Download the song now available on iTunes. Label and proceeds benefit The Chipotle Cultivate Foundation. http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/the-scientist-single/id458479961

The film, by film-maker Johnny Kelly, depicts the life of a farmer as he slowly turns his family farm into an industrial animal factory before seeing the errors of his ways and opting for a more sustainable future. Both the film and the soundtrack were commissioned by Chipotle to emphasize the importance of developing a sustainable food system.

Wacom introduces Inkling, a new digital sketch pen that captures a digital likeness of your work while you sketch with its ballpoint tip on any sketchbook or standard piece of paper.

Me: Looks great, maybe I’ll actually use a more natural interface with a pen versus a mouse on my macs. [sigh]

Someone finally cracked open their new copy of the new iMovie and tried out the “movie preview” templates… yay! jbb

The music was composed and edited in Garageband. This video was created for educational purposes.

Unmotivated Students are easy to find in most American Public High Schools today. Action needs to be taken to motivate those students. In this video i show some of my unmotivated students. Then propose some Challenge Based Research to motivate these students.

Ahead of next week’s unveiling of Apple’s iPad version 2 we’ve received a video review of this magical cutting edge product. Apple seems to have another home-run on their hands… Can hardly wait to get mine!

Just in case you have forgotten how hard it was to make a book in the modern printing press era. Now that going from finished manuscript to e-book has reduced the process by at least 1,000 steps, AND no longer requires the army of workers and physical materials why has the price to get books to customers not fallen? Oh yeah, antiquated business models. FAIL.
