(this is some spa treatment powder you reconstitute or something. It was on display at cvs this evening.) So, the point is (was when I wrote this some odd days ago), I have either been on the road for 14 ... http://23estudios.com/blog/2009/01/04/january-4-2009/ I woke up, laying on the futon on the floor in Nobu and Ri-chan’s apartment.

Today I am testing all my audio gear before hitting ... http://23estudios.com/blog/2008/12/05/forty-eight-hours-roughly/ Just getting around to reading the NY Times mag from Sunday. There's a nice article about visual literacy augmenting textual literacy. It's written by Kevin Kelly, whose blog I also enjoy.
