Why I Love Counting Crows

// May 20th, 2012 // No Comments » // cool

I’ve been a Counting Crows fan ever since “Recovering the Satellites” was released back in 1996. There’s just something about the combination of Adam Duritz’ voice and their collective musical talent that feels right. They’ve been relatively quiet for a few years, working on a number of different projects. One of those projects is their [...]

I’m Excited About Maker Faire Bay Area

One of my favorite video games is Portal. If you’re not familiar, Portal is a bit different. There aren’t really any ‘bad guys’ to [...]

From The Space Station: Time-Lapse Stars

// March 30th, 2012 // No Comments » // cool

In addition to my many, many other obsessions, I love love love time-lapse videos. Especially ones of stars, which is odd because I’ve never really had an interest in astronomy (or astrology, for that matter). Time-lapse is so fascinating because it’s a view of our world that you can’t see with your own eyes – [...]
