Abby, the mongoose lemur, eventually figured out that the treat was inside the bag . . . not the bag itself.

Day 84 - My wife handed me this book this evening. An 'Interactive Book Game' where each solution reveals a key word on their website which may turn up later in other puzzles as you work through the book.

 

I love it. Even the kids have chipped in to help solve a few.

 

*I must add I'm not this far in to it (41)… it was just the greyest page in the book! :-D

...often life's solutions present bigger problems still.

Day 10 #Project 50

 

I figured out how to solve my internet connection issue at home. =)

Since I'm unable to afford yet a DSL subscription, the next available option would be via 3G/HSDPA modem/cellphone. But the cellular network signal is weak, and most of the time dead, as soon as I enter the door.

So I bought a couple of this-- each cable measuring 1.5meters -- enough to link the cellphone hanging in the clothesline for a full blast signal, into the computer.

Problem solved!

Our son Adam Florin gave a fascinating talk about generative music at Algorithmic Art Assembly, hosted by Gray Area Art + Technology. He started with a quick demo of Patter, his music composition software, then took us on an illuminating journey through the many people and ideas which inspired him to create his cool freeform generative sequencer.

 

Brian Eno, who coined the phrase “generative music”, recently likened it to gardening -- but the material practice is just as much rooted in centuries of formal aesthetics, predictive statistics and industrial automation. How can we negotiate the tension between organic and and the mechanical in the algorithmic arts?

 

Adam has created some amazing digital tools and art exhibits in that space. It was great to hear what he's learned in this fascinating field, exploring the intersection of human and machine creativity. And to top it off, he gave this talk on his birthday, which was the best present of all!

I made a box to sit on the base of my table easel. It has four trays with blank and symbol slips and coloured magnets and magnets with symbols.

 

I can use this kit to brainstorm ideas or solutions to problems, or to organise notes and ideas.

Look at them go! Orange represents technology while blue represents cultural elements. Here you have six of ten students clearly and obviously engaged with the material being studied. They're on their feet, pointing and clicking as their brains engage. They spent the period arguing and drawing arrows and erasing them and moving Notes and arguing again. They weren't bolting for the door the moment the bell had the suggestion of a chance to ring the period's end.

 

And it's visual. And it's kinesthetic. And it's auditory. All at once. Wow. There is one kid who doesn't quite get it. I see the lamp burning in the back of his eyes, but it's not a huge flash yet. It's not a laser. Josh's point is well-taken. This doesn't do the hard work; it only generates the insight.
