Recent activities

I felt calm and unhurried after getting back from eleven months of traveling. This newfound freedom to do things at my own pace for the indefinite future made me feel unproductive for a while, but now I have started several projects which easily take up the whole of my free time.

Claudia and I are teaching programming classes for kids at Roslindale Community Center and Sprout (a learning space that a few friends started). The kids will be building animations, simulations, games, and other fun multimedia projects. Check out our course website.

We are also designing an application that will help match up learners with similar interests who live near each other. I’ll let you know more about this as we get ready to launch version 1.0.

My friend Lynwood recently started Difra Inc. (formerly known as Difra Construction). They are using technologies to build houses more quickly and sustainably for less money. I’m looking forward to this project getting big (it certainly deserves to!) and I hope to become involved soon.

Finally, I’ve once again started work on lighting software to control the big pile of Color Kinetics iColor Coves that I inherited. Hopefully beautiful sights will come out of this endeavor in the not too distant future.
