managed to do a quick sketch on my way home today. Heavy police presence, lots and lots of shops with windows smashed in, and most businesses not open today. People seem quite visibly angry and upset about what's happened, and rightly so. It might not be a well off area but by and large its safe, with a strong community spirit.
During the record breaking snowstorm, some people went out to build snowmen, others took walks around the Mall, and a few may have braved the elements in order to show off their best gear at an ugly sweater party. Robert sat inside hacking on Managing News, and then built this dashboard feature to help stay on top of it all.

Description: Final Project for Photo Design
Objective was to create images based on a Photographer we researched prior to receiving our final assignment. I chose Chase Jarvis as my Photographer and his movement into Fine Art Photography using strictly iPhone and iPhone editing applications. I was inspired by his concept of "Stylized Authenticity", the creation of highly considered images in which every element is carefully controlled and resonates with true authenticity. In other words trying to make the images ring true in order for you the viewer to believe what you are seeing. (Paraphrasing Jarvis's original quote).
I shot these images in Downtown St. Paul, MN in less than a two hour period before losing daylight. I managed to capture over 350 images in that time. In post production I used Jarvis's new book "The Best Camera Is the One That's With You" as a guideline in editing my photographs. I used only layer adjustments and a custom vignette mask to edit the images, other than that what you see as far as framing and vantage point is exactly what I saw while capturing the image. I hope you guys enjoy... and Chase if your reading this Thanks for being an inspiration.

Time is really flying by. I've managed to settle into Vancouver a bit better now. Still trying to find a routine that feels right with work (doing support work), school, love, friends, and creativity. It's tough. It feels like the two things that are still somewhat lacking is me prioritizing friends and creativity. How do people find time for everything, it's really overwhelming sometimes. I find myself at times feeling this desperation to be more creative again but I find it so difficult to find the time and space... but maybe I have to realize that it just might not come easy and I just have to make it happen.
I just finished working as a camp photographer and blogger for Deaf Camp the other week. It was so amazing to see so many Deafies everywhere and to get paid to do what I love. I'm hoping to do it again next year and perhaps bring in some art activities to do with the campers. We'll see. I feel pretty stoked about Vancouver because it's so much more accessible and I'm immediately more active in the Deaf community. I'm on the board of the BC Cultural Society of the Deaf as their Art Director. I'm feeling pretty good about that aspect. School is good too but it's rough finding the time for all the schoolwork. Love is just as lovely as ever, we're building a nice little nest and are currently taking care of a friend's garden at the community garden and omg it just makes me want to get a garden, sign up for co-op housing, take up yoga, adopt a cat/dog/child, and live in bliss with my partner. Haha. One day. Friends, like I said, not prioritizing it as well as I should... and creativity... although I do feel like I'm being more creative because of being the Art Director of BCCSD and just finishing the Deaf Camp, I still feel frustrated artistically. I feel like I have a lot I could be doing but also feel a bit of an art block and also always feel like there's so much I should be doing instead of being creative. If only I didn't have to work... (on a regular basis I guess)

Managed to snap a few shots of some skaters today in Galashiels, They left not long after I arrived so only managed a few shots. Thanks again though. Be good to pop down again when both sides had more time.
I'll be on stage this morning at a resort outside of Lucerne, Switzerland. In the room will be the heads of risk management for a vast number of global organizations. Their function is to assess, manage, and mitigate potential future risk - and my job as a futurist is to give them a bit of insight into what they need to anticipate.
So in a nutshell, I'll them what they really need to worry about is the stuff that we don't yet know about, yet which is going to come at them really, really fast!
Which is, essentially, an unknown, fast risk.
I'm not copping out on them - I can and will provide an overview of some key risk issues that they need to think about.
But for me, the biggest risk, next to geopolitical instability, is the speed of new risk. For example, this slide from my deck puts into perspective my thoughts on the accelerating risk of artificial intelligence image and video generation.
The entire field of AI text-to-image has matured at a staggering speed in just the last 3 months, with new advancements in sophistication occurring on an almost daily basis. Text-to-video AI systems seem to be evolving at an equally blinding speed. The impact, while providing much fertile ground for creative imaginations, also presents society and organizations with complex new risks. The blur between reality and fiction is going to disappear fast, and everyone is going to soon find it incredibly hard to manage the new risks that come with this trend. The risk is accelerated by the fact that many in society are already primed to be unable to parse fact from fiction - and politicians eagerly ride this trend.
And so someone will soon be able to fake a corporate CEO making some sort of false statement, with the fact that it is fake being barely imperceptible. How do you manage this risk when you barely have this risk on your list of those to be taken seriously? How do you manage this risk when the technology behind it is developing so, so quickly?
This fits into the biggest risk I worry about - and that is that history now shows us that any great technology idea is now used for nefarious purposes.
Case in point: the Internet has proven to be a wonderful tool for mankind, but is equally proving to the technology which is providing for the destruction of democracy worldwide and the rise of right-wing authoritarianism. I read the book of my fellow speaker at this event, Anna Applebaum, who offers up a chilling view of our future. It's quite the book and will scare the hell out of you, and rightfully so: Twilight of Democracy: The Seductive Lure of Authoritarianism offers up a chilling view of our current reality.
That's why my Daily Inspiration hit around this theme of the 'future of risk' 3 years ago, before my keynote for the 2019 National Safety Council conference, which featured this idea:
“The greatest risks you face are found with the undefined - the trends that have not yet occurred, the science not yet discovered, inventions not yet invented, and ideas not yet crystallized!” That message became a key part of my storyline on stage:
Bottom line? While risk management professionals are busy understanding, managing, and mitigating existing risks, it’s the unknown that might get someone in the end. And those unknowns are coming at us at a staggering speed.
Think about a few other issues with accelerating change: how will we know if the spatial vision algorithm used by a cobot (cooperative robot) working next to a human has been properly programmed? When we have fleets of interconnected, AI-driven packing and shipping devices scurrying around our factory floor, how do we ensure the proper assumptions have been built into the model? When we build and implement the Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) into our processes, how will we ensure their security and integrity, thus providing for proper safety? And how do we manage the new risk that comes from artificial intelligence that is unfolding at such a speed that the blur between fiction and reality is soon set to totally disappear?
These are the things that I think about as a futurist.
We’ve got a lot of challenges around us today, but there is a lot yet more to come.
In the end run - it’s the unknown that will get you every time!

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates approximately 1 in 68 children in the United States has autism. Each year an estimated 50,000 teens with autism become adults, losing their school-based autism services. With no known cure available in the pharmaceutical market, autism can cause a multitude of social disorders, repetitive behaviors, and communication

I managed to trace the current owner of this bike with the help of the 'CBX Enthusiasts group. It used to belong to Ian Kirk. It sat in his showroom for years. People often asked if it was for sale, but the answer was always no. The current owner has asked me not to show the bikes registration plate on flickr.
In 2012 the engine, carbs & brakes were overhauled. The original Honda exhaust system (which needs some attention) is currently in dry storage while the owner ponders what to do with it.
I have to say from what I can see in these 640x480 pictures, the bike looks like brand new.

Managing the Talent - Saw these two people being posed by a photographer and it raised the issue for me of how the image of the Pow Wow (and photomemory) is carefully managed.
I've made a recent decision to focus on the waitstaff set as it has been languishing for a while. So here we have Meg, unposed and in action - taking care of lots of customers - somehow making it all work.
