had a play with dad's iPad; looks beautiful, and I'm impressed by how easy it is to read; will almost definitely be picking one up next year

16October2010 08:08

wandered the halls of castle towers before dinner; I'm a little nervous about the prospect of calling the hills home again, however briefly

16October2010 04:47

enjoyed The Town; predictable story, but well told; very impressed with affleck: writing, acting and directing

16October2010 01:59

"so hot we'll melt your popsicle"; they're playing katy perry in the cinema; it's so bad I just have to respect her; it's ironic right?

15October2010 22:36

(FB)RT my sister: "Dear Google, let me finish typing my search before you start flashing results at me" -> i'd wondered if that was annoying

13October2010 11:09

amazing performances by @sydsymph tonight, loved the solo violinist and the conductor — all very energetic

13October2010 11:07

stravinsky's rite of spring terribly frantic, but remarkably cogent, and the discordance all at the service of the narrative

13October2010 10:07

overhearing simply red during tonight's @sydsymph interlude is awfully incongruous; I prefer the much older music inside the concert hall

13October2010 08:16

counter-intuitive but so true RT @zephoria QOTD: "Facebook is like shouting in a crowd; Twitter is like talking in a room with friends."

13October2010 01:37

approached on linkedin with an offer for a boring sounding job and an instruction to "call me ASAP"; you're not really selling it!

11October2010 22:23

new windows phone ad is almost great, but by the punchline i'd taken completely the wrong msg http://youtu.be/EHlN21ebeak /via @johnaugust

10October2010 02:35

cool timelapse of the #BrekkieOnBridge setup and teardown http://bit.ly/d7Ak5g /via @SimonThomsen

06October2010 10:56

i just spent a couple hours writing and now i feel i need to log it on my timesheet; nasty work habits!

06October2010 10:50

wrote some things about music, memory, the physical, and the performative: http://wintermute.com.au/bits/2010-10/on-music/

people who use a flash to photograph outdoor landscapes shouldn't be allowed to operate good cameras

06October2010 03:21

a useful maxim RT @stanmorePhoenix [...] Hanlon's Razor: "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity"

05October2010 08:15

it's stalker-y, but finding people on facebook with mutual friends in different circles is fascinating; wish that could be less accidental

02October2010 11:04

weekend with family means a night with foxtel; watching pelham 123; not sure the movie required another remake, but a big fan of tony scott

30September2010 03:11

good read; may have to pick up the book; re "neurosexism": http://io9.com/5651462/brain-scams-the-real-science-behind-sex-differences

29September2010 00:57

#NewTwitter is a nice showcase of webby things, but doesn't make things any easier than the iphone app, so don't see myself using it

28September2010 08:39

for anyone interested in tech in the classroom, @fraserspeirs' latest on his school's ipad deployment is heartwarming: speirs.org/blog/2010/9/23…

27September2010 03:09

been playing with dropbox as a way to push iphone photos to my website, but the iphone strips out exif data; might have to try email

26September2010 21:55

been working on a website for a friend's fashion label; finally pushed it live last night! http://soomin.com.au/

26September2010 04:50

just bought the roots & john legend's wake up, off itunes, that platform victorious; I've been buying CDs as long as I've been buying music!

25September2010 12:08

sally potter's orlando is amazing; very clever tale, with a curious mix of immortality and gender-bending; tilda swinton always brilliant

25September2010 07:29

saw the new wall street movie; it's an enjoyable enough thriller/drama thing, but unsatisfying; I think I wanted something more from it

25September2010 06:07

power's back! and with it, alarms

25September2010 05:37

power's out in the building; puts a damper on my plans to cook, and rather limits my entertainment choices

24September2010 13:00

starship troopers an incredibly cheesy movie; fun, but about as messed up philosophically as imagined

23September2010 12:39

pierre rigal's asphalte was amazing; beautiful interplay of light and sound and bodies; I should really watch more dance

22September2010 21:59

sketching and sharing designs, note-taking, reading, uninterrupted writing... RT @stanmorePhoenix @PeterMHoward such as?

22September2010 12:48

with an iphone and a macbook pro I really don't need an ipad, but I keep coming up against really good use cases; must wait for 2nd gen!

22September2010 11:20

dymocks "know" i "love fantasy novels", but i've never bought any of the authors they're promoting — this is why genre divisions fail

20September2010 10:07

bought a couple of subscriptions for @sydsymph 2011 season — first show the day after i get back from paris and london!

19September2010 05:45

enjoyed tomorrow when the war began; low budget and kinda obvious, but good adventure; make more movies like this, australia!

18September2010 04:02

oh no! RT @acassimaty Dendy is showing Jackass 3D. The end is near, people.
