(Real-) Life (Dancing) Imitates (Computer) Art

While watching this, I had to keep reminding myself that I was seeing live action and not edited video:

Just a Snapshot

Akihabara at Night, originally uploaded by Adam Schabtach. It was a really long day, but a good one. We visited the Great Buddha in Hase (near Kamakura). I’m really tired so I’m just going to post this snapshot of Akihabara I took from the train-station platform. Probably the most interesting thing about it is that [...]

I can haz ramen?

Google Honors Father of Modern Origami

If you hit google.com today, you’ll see that their logo is a photo of origami. I’m going to take the liberty of posting a screenshot here, since it’s probably a one-day event (although I’m sure that all of their Doodles end up in an online museum somewhere): It was created in honor of Akira Yoshizawa, [...]

Winter Photos

I bought a new camera recently–a Canon PowerShot S100–and have been taking lots of pictures in an attempt to learn how to use it. I put a set of photos with a winter theme on my flickr site here. I took all of these between mid-January and now, which means they span three substantial snowfalls. [...]

Yes, Another Entry About Snow

Okay, I freely admit that I’ve been neglecting this blog even more than usual recently. I think this may be an unfortunate side-effect of having a presence on Twitter: things that I might blog about I instead tweet about. In any case, after a lengthy stretch of sunny weather, it snowed here this morning. As [...]

Yup, Lots of Snow

IMG_5652, originally uploaded by Adam Schabtach. Boulder got dumped on last night and this morning. There are drifts well over a foot deep here at the house. I put up some photos from the morning’s excavation on my Flickr page here.

It’s White Before Christmas

Looks like we’re in for a good snowstorm tonight. It’s just before 9:00PM, we’ve already received a couple of inches, and it’s still snowing steadily. There’s a Winter Storm Warning in effect with snowfall rates predicted to be up to one inch or more per hour, with a total accumulation of up to 12 inches [...]

Brrr!

The temperature hit a low of 4F (that’s -15C if you live in a country with a sane measurement system) last night, and the high today was barely above 10F/-12C. This makes it easily the coldest day so far this season. We happened to have our monthly delivery of bottled water today, and it was [...]

11/11/11

Yes, this is my obligatory wow-what-a-silly-date post. I am fond of mathematics, though, so it can’t be resisted. The date 11/11/11 rolls around only once every 100 years so I fully expect that I won’t blog about it again. Given that nobody could have anticipated blogging, or the technology behind it, on the last 11/11/11, [...]
