Adam Birthday at Duende
We celebrated Adam’s birthday in style in uptown Oakland, across from the historic Fox Theater. We dined at Duende (spanish for ‘passion’), feasting on tasty tapas and paellas with with him Dani and Phyllis. Phyllis gave him a lovely handmade birthday card showing him as a dataviz priest with rings of digital bits. And I gave him ‘Unflattening’, an inspiring comic book on how we construct knowledge through multiple viewpoints.
Adam has grown into a fine young man over the years, which makes me very happy. He’s developed just the right mix of passion and reason -- and he’s an inspiration to me. I hope he can keep following his bliss in the next chapter of his life. Joyeux anniversaire, Adam!
