We're finishing off the last of insulating this old house of ours.

Pray we get it done. Fast.

It's a refreshing, creative take on the typical design promo reel. Nice work, you guys.

Oh, + there's also a little cameo of yours truly 'round the 2-minute mark where cartoon Lisa stomps on me, hehe. :) The same project is also featured here.

Cute. Changed my Gmail theme "Ninja" to "Bus Stop" + noticed it updates as the weather changes. Sunny, cloudy, + now rainy days.

today's 5-hour Mouse Path

today's 5-hour Mouse Path
Originally uploaded by +kdis

This is my mouse path activity for today starting at 1:30pm until around 6:30pm.

The lines represent movement + the dots are resting periods—the bigger the dot, the longer the rest.

My Photoshop / Illustrator workspace palettes are located on the right of my screen, while my design documents are to the left. That huge dot is from my 5pm team status meeting + there are medium dots representing restroom / coffee breaks here + there. Lunch was devoured at my desk yet again.

I think I need to print this out + have it framed...

daydreams

"Daydreams are distinguished by the fact that they take our attention away from perceiving the real world outside and direct it to the charms of the inner world. The imagination enables us to enter different worlds and realities without being physically present in them. It is this potential that makes daydreams the perfect vehicle for developing new, creative ideas. Daydreams allow us to make trail runs without the slightest risk - we can act out any scenario, and absolutely nothing can go wrong..."
