Recent doings as of March 2008

Posted in Design, Personal, Work at 8:55 pm by Ben

Work:

  • Lots of video editing. It’s been very interesting - especially managing client expectations.
  • Various website designs and development, some coming soon
  • Lots of pleased clients both internally and externally.
  • The CHAMPS project continues to push back it’s completion date. I’d love to tell you all about this monster of a project but its both a political and sensitive subject due to the various entities involved.

Freelance:

  • More icons for Maietta-Hatch Kinaesthetics

Personal:

  • The wife and I will be moving to a new apartment come the first of May
  • The new apartment has lots more space and central air.

Michigan Life:

  • The weather is definitely heading towards spring although winter keeps trying to get a last hurrah in.
  • The birds are all twitter-pated. The morning sounds are wonderful.
  • Need to post some more photos. I’m thinking of building a Flash - XML powered web gallery and hooking it up somewhere on the site. I know, it’s been done before but hey - I’ll get to dust off my Flash skills and have some coding fun!

Anyway, that’s the recent doings as of March 2008.

Funny sight

Posted in Stories at 9:20 pm by Ben

Imagine if you will a gaggle of Canadian geese landing on the icy surface of a frozen pond. Well some friends and I saw it live. The sliding, the honking, and the crashing into the side of pond. Absolutely hilarious. Also one particular goose seemed to be irate at another and kept chasing it around the pond - an absurd ballet if you will - and made the whole scene all the funnier.
