a growing concern

This is another entry written the next day, perhaps this is the best way to do them? I wake up, then sit in bed and type it out.

what happened

I flipped my desk around to go long-ways. It's not as good as I thought, but it did prompt me to remodel the room in blender and now I'm ready to rearrange it properly. a wireframe of the 3D model of my room

weaving

I strung up my home made loom. It was a bloody nightmare, being hampered by my own shoddy craftmanship. If I finish this weaving and actually enjoy it then I'm buying a desktop loom. If I don't enjoy it, then we're free. All things work out, with a bit of work. picture of the loom

lazing about

At 2:30 I left to visit my friend Benjamin at their studio in VCA. I always have a good time visiting, pottering about and chatting to them and their other classmates. This was no exception. We had some tea and Lamingtons, to celebrate my renewed and reinforced Uncle role, and I made a soap dish with some clay they had in their studio. After we went to an exhition for a lookabout and the free beer. It makes art school seem very fun, and exciting. It's not the idea of doing art that makes me want to enrol, more the idea of hanging out with other people making things and chatting. That being said, I was thinking about software engineering and programming - How we manage and transform information from input to output, fairly unquestioning about the social effect or ramifications of what we build. I was thinking how producing art is a different way of processing information, with the goal of understaning it holistically or turning it into new information, or feelings. Perhaps if I learn a great deal about computer science it wouldn't be a bad thing to do an art degree, to round out my thinking and practice. Thoughts are free.

sometimes you just chill

I got home and did a workout with Luke, then we just watched stranger things and I fell asleep on the couch. I can finish off what I started tomorrow. I'm a little concerned that my dreams of a hard routine and incredible productivity are crumbling before me, we will see.
