  • Awareness or Aware-less

    Tweeted the other day about some new explorations happening with indentity and authentication and it was pretty clear that it isn’t just a question about technology finding its way of being useful but not overwhelming. There is (as there is often) as sense of connected technologies either making us more aware of the surroundings around us, or making is less aware of who we are in the context of this world around us.

  • 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 →

  • Reading, Recognizing, & Lenses

    Years before the genesis of Avanceé, there was Mobile Ministry Magazine, a website and magazine geared to assisting faith-based groups better understand and apply mobile and other connected technologies. The challenge then was it was a perspective much further out than some groups were willing to consider. Yet, it was heard in time, and the audience grew and sparked several other movements (many of which still heavily influencing faith and connectivity today). 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 →

  • Mobility

    There’s much change happening about transportation. In urban areas, the technology which has fueled the hockey-stick like acquisition of smartphones, has upended ride-hailing, personal, and public transportation options. In the macro-industry view, advances in automation are challenging everything from where autos are sold, to the repetitive tasks (and resulting health concerns) of those who put those autos together. More than simply responding to oil versus electric, there’s just a shift happening in and around transportation which could be looked at as part of the same shift which started with steam, bicycles, and industry in the late 1800s.

  • Links for 20 July

    Sometimes, it doesn’t matter what exactly you might be trying to avert your attention from, there are some news and notes which just make their way into your viewing lanes. You can decide what to look at, what to hold onto, and what to discard. You can’t always decide the immediate value of what just took hold of your attention. This is the harder lesson of filters/boundaries. One in which this week’s set of links seems to shine the appropriate light towards: Continue reading →
