I am still planning to continue posting to this blog as inspiration arises, but I am focusing more energy towards my current creative research and the associated blog: http://drawingthinking.blogspot.com/

Technical Difficulties...

When I canceled the AT&T/Yahoo DSL at the New Haven house for the year, I didn’t realize that there would be online account repercussions that would come back to haunt me. I have been slowly moving everything over to my Gmail account for a few years now, but left out 2 very important address changes - my Amazon account and my Yahoo login. When my old email address disappeared from existence about 24 hours ago, Amazon simply required a completely new account - no options. Now I am Tabula Rasa to Amazon - no book recommendations, no account history, no wish list. The bigger problem is my Yahoo ID. I hadn’t really put it together in my head that this was attached to my Flickr account. When I went to upload new pictures yesterday I was locked out. I was sent over and over to the Yahoo login page. I have sent a request to Flickr customer support, but it is unclear how long it may take to resolve this... So it may be a while before I can show you some new pictures from our expat life... bummer. I just hope there isn’t anything else I have forgotten with that address... hhmmmm...

Documenting the Document

I think I saved the hardest section of my website to finish last. Subconsciously... Not on purpose... So, here I am chipping away at it. I am squeezing the work in between all my other tasks because another round of grant deadlines is approaching and I really need the entire thing to be complete. I spent most of the day yesterday making movies of my old interactive CDroms (1999-2000). Since I can’t trust the old technology to function when I send out grant applications, I decided to document some of the interaction on screen to get the flavor of the experience. I guess it will have to do for now... So, 5 new movies are on my YouTube channel.
