Exiting Winter
I’m running out of winter.
Finding Delight, Day 1
Hey hey hey, what’s going onnn? I have no idea, but plushies are delightful! Here’s a small selection of the collection:
Finding Delight, Day 0
I was watching this interview with Casey Neistat, and he talks about surprise and delight in the context of videos. I want to make delightful videos, but I’ve realized that I don’t know what is delightful to me. I need to find it. I’m on a quest. Objective: find things that are delightful, calm, fun,…
Video Experiment Day 7, “More Clouds”
Today is the last day of the experiment! The videos I made weren’t really the videos I expected to make. I thought I’d have more time and energy to make them, but I’ve been tired the last week with the start of the semester. Maybe I’ll make more once things settle down.
Video Experiment Day 6, “Clouds!”
I love clouds!
Video Experiment Day 5, “Leafy Breeze”
Leaves! I wish I could record audio without as much wind noise.
Video Experiment Day 4, “Liminal Scene?”
I should probably switch to YouTube soon because my site’s bandwidth isn’t fast enough for smooth video playback.
Video Experiment Day 3, “Nighttime Trees”
Maybe what things physically are doesn’t matter as much as our relationships with them. I’m thinking about this because I’m researching cameras, and the Sony ZV-1’s tripod mount blocks the card slot. That small detail would mean more to me than almost anything else about the camera, because it makes it harder to use.
Video Experiment Day 2, “Tree and clouds”
A nice tree! Also, today I discovered I can upload videos directly from my phone if I set it to use H.264.
Video Experiment Day 1, “Windowsill Vignette”
Just a simple scene today. This is a windowsill in the computer science building on campus.
Video Experiment Day 0, “Trees”
Let’s try something new together! All the cool kids are making videos, and I too want to make videos, so it’s new series time!
Study Abroad London, Review
Hey, I’m too tired today to write the review, but I wanted to save this as a placeholder for once I’ve edited my journal entries. There should be more here soon!
Study Abroad London, Day 14
I’m about to go to the airport! This trip has been amazing, and I’m ready to go home.
Study Abroad London, Day 13
Today I saw The Mousetrap in St. Martin’s Theatre! It was excellent, definitely recommend!
Study Abroad London, Day 12
Today I went to the British Museum and I saw the sculptures yoinked from the Parthenon. Also walked across Abbey Road! We only have tomorrow before going home, and I’m just about ready.
Study Abroad London, Day 11
Today I went to Brighton! The beach was pleasant.
