If you were on the fence about attending my demoparty being held at Notacon at the end of the month, this is the time to jump over to the light. The hotel is filling, the preparations are being made, and it becomes easier for everyone to know how many folks are showing up. Naturally, you […]
Within digitize.textfiles.com there’s a chipper little sales catalog for a line of fruit-themed power connectors. Really! The name of the company was Electronic Protection Devices, Inc. They produced power cables, power splitters, and power monitors during the early 1980s. As part of my endless writing away for catalogs and “more information” from computer magazines, I […]
A number of these cameras have been slowly showing up, but my eye is pretty well caught by a camera called the Canon HV10. This might get a tad technical, so I’m going to put lots of explanations into parenthesis.

He works with landscapes like I work with textfiles, if that’s any endorsement. He’s really, really good at it. He’s been […]
Principal shooting finished up last night for a side-project: a music video in support of a song on MC Frontalot’s new album, Secrets From the Future. For some segment of the population, the idea of the director of the BBS Documentary doing a music video with the head of the nerdcore hip-hip movement for a […]
I was chatting with one of my oldest friends, and while going over a few things, he said “TIM needs a new home”. “What?” I said. “Let me forward you the e-mail trail,” he said. When I was 19, living for the first time in my own apartment with multiple roommates, I’d started to get […]
