  • Links for 28 Sept

    Searching, scratching, and using beats on 808s to do something like matching. Each week the links here are a mix and remix of what has made for a piece of insight. From these, Avanceé aims to create a means for others to see forward. Sometimes that’s automating work processes, other times that’s designing systems and noting the potential (and unintentional) interactions. Remixing jazz made for rock, pop, hiphop, and more. Chances are that these links will provoke you to create something new also. Continue reading →

  • Links for 21 Sept

    Throughly enjoyed sharing a bit about “digital humanism” at Annapolis Brigadoon over the past days. Yet, for as much as there was an expression of Avanceé (main points: livability as productivity and boundaries established around understanding circadian rhythms), the conversations when went well beyond and through our presentation made the time all that more enjoyable. There’s a thread in all things, and maybe the best one yet being the conversations which enable us to learn just a little bit more about other’s place in the world, and perhaps refine how we see ourselves in the same.

    Clouds and rain seem to make something of a calming moment for many. For others, clouds and rain portend a change. Whether things are going to not be as they were, or that the change which was going to come isn’t. As much as we sometimes see the former, its the latter to which its harder to figure out when under the clouds and not on top of them. With that, here are this week’s links: Continue reading →

  • Links for 7 Sept

    There’s this stretch of life which happens right at the end of summer when many folks start picking up the pace. An anxiousness to the end of the year? Catching up and getting back on pace because of summer breaks? Or, maybe something a bit more is happening. Whatever it is, there’s a cause for a quickening. That means a quick review here, and a launch into more for later. Continue reading →

  • Links for 31 Aug

    There’s something of a flood coming. At least, depending on the genre you are watching, listening to, or consumed by there’s something coming. Now, what we are doing with it, might your company be trying a different route rather than the same, or how you might be deciding to ignore it are the other questions. Developing something better than a response, while being aware of what is or isn’t relevant. Data is a flood… until it isn’t. Continue reading →

  • Links for 24 Aug

    It has been something of a flashback in seeing how many have made their way over to MicroBlog. Sure, Twitter acting out has a lot to do with that, but there’s probably something a tick under the surface with a lot of social groups and social networks which grow over a particular size or gain some kind of celebrity/global affluence. There’s always someone and something mining a path just a bit differently… until others also figure out the new road and make it their own also. Continue reading →

  • Links for 17 Aug

    Tossing about whatever sticks. Or, are we making trails inside and beyond the streams other conversations and concepts have chosen for themselves. Sounds a bit etherial to ignite this week’s links with such a statement. But, there’s something to be said for pushing forward until clarity makes itself known. Some people and movements know this well before others. Some just stumble around until a shoreline is found. Here are this week’s links: Continue reading →

  • Links for 10 Aug

    The middle of the year has passed and there’s some sense of “if you haven’t made that 2018 change now, then you better get on it” with some of the reads from this week. At the same time, its refreshing to continue to be revealed aspects of life that weren’t as easy to see earlier in the year. Perhaps, links are just as much about what we catch now, as it is what we might have missed later which has come into a clearer view: Continue reading →

  • Links for 3 Aug

    There’s sometimes no getting around this point — there’s just a whole lot out there to sift through, and even more right behind it. Does it matter to highlight so little in a sea of so much? Perhaps. But, what about when we highlight the sea, its waves, and the lands it brushes up against? There’s a lot more than sediment being pushed around. There’s a lot more happening than just the links as shared: Continue reading →

  • Links for 27 July

    Lots of flooding — both in rainfall and information — across various timelines this week. It’s almost as if the summer has found something of its own pace, and we aren’t used to it heating up to something a bit different. Perspective, or what we notice or don’t notice about the nuance of contexts, frames this week’s link share: Don’t Ban Scooters, Redesign Streets via Curbed The Etymology of Parking via Michele Richmond Color Me A Dinosaur: This History of Crayola Crayons, Charted via Data Pointed Chart Party: Using Automation to Eliminate Image Drudgery via Six Colors The iPad vs. Continue reading →
