Enjoying My Craft
Last night I stayed up into the wee hours of the morning continuing to work on iterations of my current artistic piece “Mont.” The gif I created took about an hour and a half because I did it mostly by hand. There are probably easier ways to make a 3D object rotate than the process…

Strange Fantasies
What’s something you would attempt if you were guaranteed not to fail. So I’ve talked about Brigham Young elsewhere on my blog. I remain impressed by the fact that he had 50+ wives and 50+ children. The desire for a lot more kids and the wealth to afford them is a very selfish one. Still…

Starting Over
What would you do if you lost all your possessions? There are three times when I lost most of my possessions and I suspect each of those times has something to say about how I would deal with losing all of them. The first time was when I graduated highschool and went straight into the…

Being Wrong
What’s a topic or issue about which you’ve changed your mind? I have a shirt from my sister that reads, “I’d agree with you but then we would both be wrong.” I don’t like being wrong and have significant discomfort from admitting that I’m wrong. I had an ongoing conversation with my wife. She has…
