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!

We celebrated the Whole Earth Catalog’s 50th Anniversary with many of its creators on October 13, 2018, at Fort Mason in San Francisco. The event was hosted by Stewart Brand, Ryan Phelan, Danica Remy and an amazing group of volunteers, including yours truly. In the afternoon, Whole Earth alumni gathered in the atrium of the Art Institute for a series of lightning talks featuring community members like Larry Brilliant, Carolyn Garcia, Bruce Sterling and Wavy Gravy. The creative minds in attendance all had one thing in common: they gave access to tools and ideas to help people bring their dreams to life -- and change the world together. Many thanks to all the folks who organized and participated in this event! It was a wonderful way to honor a culture that helped change the world and that may inspire many others for years to come.

Visual instructions for activities make things clear for everyone. This means participants ask fewer how-to questions and there's more time for active engagement, participation, and discussion.
Forensics: The First 48
Back for the second year, this clover college workshop will offer a Forensics Frenzy. The first forty‐eight hours of an investigation are key in determining the answers to the Who? What? When? Where? How? Time is very valuable and so is the information that will be provided in this session. Youth will use their investigative and problemsolving skills to solve a mock crime scene. Several detective agencies will offer opportunities to learn the methods of observing, gathering and analyzing physical evidence to solve mysteries. This hands‐on session doesn’t stop there. Come take part in a virtual visit to a local morgue and discover the secrets of the underworld. If that’s not enough, have you ever wondered how long it takes for a body to decompose? Or maybe you’ve been interested in body composition and bone structure. Well, take a peek in our Forensics Anthropology corner. This session will offer these opportunities and so much more.

This old PS2 game doesn't look that great on an HD TV but it's still a great game. (Sorry about the shakiness, I was working the controller while holding the camera.)

The event was hosted by Stewart Brand, Ryan Phelan, Danica Remy and an amazing group of volunteers, including yours truly. At the event, we presented Whole Earth Flashbacks, a video history of this innovative culture, which I produced and edited with a wonderful group of 60 community contributors. Our half-hour video played all day long in their Gray Box multimedia theater.
In the evening, we played a shorter version of the Flashbacks video at the Cowell Theatre. I'm very grateful to all our core team on this project: Matisse Enzer, Phyllis Florin, Ahmed Kabil, David Lawrence, Jim McKee, and Susan Ryan, to name but a few.
The creative minds we featured in the video all had one thing in common: they gave access to tools and ideas to help people bring their dreams to life -- and change the world together. Many thanks to all the folks who organized and participated in this event! It was a wonderful way to honor a culture that helped change the world and that may inspire many others for years to come.

Yep, that's me in the middle holding the giant pencil:)
I use that giant pencil (or marker) to make all that murky gray stuff on the left clear and colorful for you so you can get it, grab it, and go for it...and help others do the same.

Visual agendas make things run more smoothly, since everyone knows the plan upfront. A well-designed visual agenda also helps to build curiosity and anticipation that keep folks engaged throughout the day.
