One of Gwen’s favourite animals this year was the octopus so I got my arts and crafts hat on for Christmas.

Last night I had the pleasure of seeing my partner perform with the Aeolian Singers in their Endless Spaces concert.
If you’re HRM and interested in a show this afternoon they have one more performance at 2:30.

Only 30 minutes until the WWDC keynote! Every year I tell myself I’m going to dive into iOS development in my spare time… 🤔
Really I’m mostly excited about the potential of iPadOS

This week I finally got around to checking out this collection of upscaled macOS wallpapers and using the Tiger wallpaper on my computer for some nostalgia.
Last night I set it on my iPad as well and it is deeply satisfying.

Time flies when you are having fun!
This quarantine period has really demonstrated this proverb in a strange way since it feels like it has been 9 years since the beginning of March.
On a more fun note, 9 actual years ago today my friends and I performed this sketch in Wolfville. -
We were supposed to see Steve Poltz live next month here in Halifax but that’s been postponed.

Living in a city makes it hard to find open nature spaces. I’m super thankful to live next to a provincial park.

Another city and another shiny metal object on the ground caught my eye. This one was less functional than the sewer lids, but does it’s job well.

Getting ready to rehearse.

a pretty big deal
several months ago I shared that my brother won a Canadian Architect Award of Excellence on twitter and facebook.
today dalhousie university took the time to feature his work on their website and I realized that I should do likewise.my brother, matthew, is a pretty big deal and you should all know it.

an update! no way!
after a long hiatus I have made strides towards resurrecting website and turning it into something functional. for too long it has been in a half completed state of disrepair as a result of my choice to use it as a learning opportunity.
I recently concluded that I need my website to not be a project, but instead a tool that will enable me to explore ideas related to other projects and events in my life. as a result this iteration of my website is a wordpress install that I will modify to meet my needs. sometimes reinventing the wheel just isn’t a productive avenue.
as the header states I plan on writing about teaching, programming, and communicating ideas more generally. over the last few years these have been the subjects that have remained consistently relevant and interesting through life changes. I have also brought along the old posts I wrote, primarily for my own benefit. looking through them inspires some interesting reflection.

creativity block
there has been little activity here the past year. this is a side effect of many things. including, but not limited to, the process of rebuilding this very site. I made this video recently in an effort to push through the creativity block I have been experiencing. the goal is to make more of them. some will get posted here, others will not. they will all be available at unsupervised.ca, as well as other video projects I have done.
enjoy.
