Looking for a Web Designer
Posted 14 years agoAgain, I'm looking for a web-designer to assist me in updating a site. I have hosting and a domain.
This is a serious offer, the terms of which we can discuss. Most likely, I want an individual who takes his work seriously and can point out a few portfolio pieces; moreover, I need someone who can help me do more than I already can using html and design-mode on Dreamweaver.
The work structure is preferably a commission for contracted work, followed up by a regular payment for a assistance during a period of time that content is then uploaded.
Conversely, if there's little interest, this may be one more skill I have add to my resume. :)

In other news: 100F is NOT hot folks.., try southern Japan. :P

Posted 14 years agoI'll be keeping my account here on FA. All identity connections have been erased (through a lot of effort).
This stuff (sadly) matters and absolutely frames who you are to others who do not understand. If you think you'll simply not associate with those people, then you're making a career mistake.

I don't know when I'll upload art again; it could be tomorrow, perhaps months from now. I'm busy moving, looking for work, and editing a book by authors from around the world. Needless to say I'm busy.

Maine was pretty awesome, and not 12 hours after returning the New York Times publishes "36 Hours in Bar Harbor" in their Travel section. Clearly, I was on to something. You guys live in an amazing state. It's this wonderful cross between the Dutch interior and the Lost Coast of California. People are nice, and cheap lobster rolls! :3

In about a week I'll be moving from Cambridge and back to a family home in Nevada. I'm really sad to leave, but conflicted enough to know that I still feel more at home in the West. Admittedly, It's hard not to like living in Harvard Square. Seriously though, Boston is this perfect mix of small town cozy with big city amenities. It's like a portable New York and I've definitely fallen in love with it.
Anyway, I spent the last 15 years of my life looking forward to doing grad school out here and now it's all over. Needless to say, I'm a stew of emotions right now.

Congrats to Japan
Posted 14 years agoReally short Japanese ladies won the World Cup. I think it's the first time. The underlying ethos that subtends all things Japanese is respectable as a profound appertination in any situation.
Kanpai!

Maine Furries

To My Instant Message Contacts
Posted 14 years agoYo, I changed my screenames on AIM and Yahoo. It's proving to be a tedious task. They now start with an A so if you hear from me... that's me.

Possibly Closing My FA Account
Posted 14 years agoI've really started to focus on cleaning house and managing who I am on the internet.
Recently, my furry identity has become traceable through various internet searches using my real identity. Some artists clearly don't have a problem with this, but I do. Therefore, I'm considering closing my account on FA. This decision is further pushed by the increase in furry stalker sites that try to elucidate artists real names and contact information. I've even seen my personal messages from FA posted on blogs. Clearly, content on this site is not well protected.
This makes me very sad as I have so accrued a great many watchers and fans with my art; however, this dilemma limits what art I can upload without concern about its affect on my personal and professional life.
I haven't decided yet, but the longer Google's crawling takes to pickup the changes I've made to my internet presence, the more inclined I am to close this FA account. I may change usernames with a short overlap period.

In Other News:
I wish I had the time and energy to draw furry these days. Even after school here, I've just been nonstop busy with life chores, family, financial stuff, job search... ugh.
I worry I'm relatively forgotten, although sometimes I'm not really sure if I want my art to be that well known in the fandom. I greatly dislike seeing my art posted in outside galleries and blogs. I'm tempted to take down some of my gallery because of this, or maybe go back and clean up my art.
That sort of activity subverts some of the privacy and decency afforded by the mature tags.

Orange County is the quietest I've ever heard it now. I can't hear crickets, any freeway, or wind. Makes me want to go to bed at a normal hour.

Graduated from Harvard
Posted 14 years agoMany of my friends know this already, but I get to make a journal nonetheless. Last Thursday morning I finished (literally around 3am) and graduated from Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design. My degree is a Master of Architecture in Urban Design.
Attending this, one of three schools in which I was interested, has been a dream since my interest in architecture began almost 14 years ago (7th grade). Needless to say, finishing here is emotionally overwhelming and has been cause for introspection on where I want to take the rest of my life. All I know for certain, is that my life will never be the same.
The “MAUD” program here brings to bear a kind of radical professional integration between landscape, planning, and architecture under the aegis of urban design. As I’ve come to learn (and accept) cities today are to be addressed as much through their infrastructure, the larger-scale ecologies they create (hybrid, man-made, economic, social, industrial). Working with some big names that I've idolized (and much of design culture reveres) has been transformational, as Ive come to understand how their motivations differ from my own interpretations of their published work (as I try to resist asking for their autograph). My métier has, through my research here, come to straddle the realm of large scale infrastructural planning, landscape ecosystem conservation, and the discrete instances of architecture that register such new geographics.
Basically this is a culmination of 8 years of university in design (5 required, an internship, and 2 in Cambridge). It has been a chance to take my theories from practice-based work, to being lodged in a larger milieu of research discourse - I hope to finish my first publication this fall. Anyway, it’s all very emotionally challenging to reach this point. I have to figure out how this is more than a dénouement and is rather a waypoint on an ongoing journey.
In architecture school, you work 80 – 100 hours a week, living in studio with people who become family. It’s very hard to say goodbye. Many of us have helped each other through thesis nervous breakdowns, family problems, that sort. I have to admit that it has been very hard to accept being average here; I am humbled by some amazing colleagues who are frankly amazing. I don’t know how some of them do their stuff. When I look back at http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3119112/ , I cry remembering the days and nights in that amazing place with such amazing people.
Currently, I’m continuing research I began here regarding linear cultural routes and their agency on forest conservation planning on various continents, additionally I have some lectures due mid-summer. Of course, there’s also the job search... ugh. On that note I’ll be heading to San Francisco this weekend. Hopefully, if things work out, I’ll be a bay area fur by summer’s end. In general, I’ll be heading back to the west in August. I also intend to attend FC 2012. I have no idea how much art I can produce this summer, but I do want to upload a few pieces I’ve had in mind (including Henrieke’s badge, lol).

If Only
Posted 14 years agoIf only friends could know how hard this is on me. I've never been so fraught with stress in my life; now I know why the Harvard Bridge (MIT's campus) is a popular place to die.
Sometimes I cry, sometimes I just freak out and freeze up. The recurring nightmares are not that bad, but get annoying.
This is the most difficult thing I've ever done. Not because I'm not sleeping... it's not physical.. yet. It's trying to wrap-up a mind bending project that's been concocted over a year, and turn it into a presentation in one more week.

This is why "planning" is lightyears behind contemporary urban theory. I know this is almost a decade ago, but seriously... I was just having this wave of exasperation about it while working on my masterplan drawings.
It's basically still the 1980's out there.
