  • My ‘New Media’ Obsession (January 24)

    These are just a few of the shows I used to watch. News broadcasts, TV shows, movies, podcasts, YouTube, Twitter, blogs, editorials, thinkpieces, press releases. There are so many different kinds of media, and there’s more than any one person could ever consume of any one of them. There are also sciences, sports, arts, technologies,…

  • I freaking love sunsets (January 23)

    I’ve mentioned before that I like sunsets. When I have a day where I’m not really making anything, sometimes I just have to look up and see the beautiful colours a setting sun can give me. If you don’t like sky pictures, I’m sorry, because I do. These pictures were about 7 minutes apart, as…

  • Feedback 8 Video | Electric Love (January 22)

    For episode 8 of Feedback, which came out last week, Damien and BL played Electric Love by BØRNS! I really try to capture what it’s like to have these guys play for you from 5 feet away when I’m working on capturing sound and video, and it really helps that they’re just so good at…

  • Ottawhat 88 | Kelly Ann Wilson (January 21)

    On the Ottawhat podcast this week, we interviewed singer-songwriter Kelly Ann Wilson. It was really cool getting a look at the process of performing and putting an album together in a musical family, and hearing from somebody who has spent her whole life in what I’ll call ‘rural Ottawa’. Kelly Ann also debuted her latest…

  • A downtown sunset (January 20)

    I love taking pictures so much, and when I stepped off the bus yesterday, the sky looked absolutely gorgeous. I love looking at the sky, and around sunrise/sunset the colours are just unbelievable. I’m not normally able to capture the glory of the sky in such detail with my phone, but things just worked out…

  • Future Chat 85 – Like racism, but on the Internet (January 19)

    This week on Future Chat, we had a really great time chatting about cable packages (I go on a bit of a rant), talk more about alternative energy in various places, and talk about kids learning code.

  • The Internet’s Gatekeepers can do better (January 18)

    Another internet company took an unlimited plan and added asterisks to it. This time, it’s Karma Mobility. We made a mistake. We modeled Neverstop usage to be much higher than usage on Refuel. But we never anticipated that some customers would use over 1,000GB a month. They aren’t the first company to choose to throttle…

  • SpaceX Launch (January 17)

    I can’t always have something new ready to go. But luckily for me, here’s something really cool starting very soon that you can go check out! This will be happening over the next couple of hours, and hopefully in the end SpaceX will be able to land their rocket on a small barge out in…

  • Feedback 8 Video | Ex’s & Oh’s (January 16)

    This week, Damien and BL performed Ex’s & Oh’s by Elle King, as part of episode 8 of Feedback. This is a great cover of a really catchy song! Today, you can also go and check out the music from Feedback Season 1. Go check it out, you’ll be able to support Feedback, get Bl and…

  • Feedback 8 | Pre-production (January 15)

    This week, episode 8 of Feedback was released! We discussed pre-production for the upcoming Sons of Pluto EP, and talked more about life as a part-time artist. We also made a special announcement about the music from Feedback. Go check it out, you’ll be able to support Feedback, and listen to all the great songs…
