Life Stuff
I haven’t been long-form((It’s exactly what it sounds like)) blogging because I’ve been getting settled at my new job. I am now a Design Technologist at The Barbarian Group at their New York office1. Creative Javascript weekends have also stalled because most of my coding mojo has been devoted to work-related projects. Some libraries I’ve been working heavily with three.js and Raphael.js2.
I really like my job and it’s exactly what I want to do for a livelihood, which is to make stuff that people will see and experience. I’m currently working on two projects: this site for a non-profit and a collaborative digital art piece.
I’ve also been busy with other life stuff like taking up yoga again and taking on sewing projects. Since I’m commuting on the subway again, I’m reading more. I’m also looking for an apartment. I’ve been a pretty busy bee.

My work is being exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art! (kinda…)
As I wrote previously, here and here, last summer I worked as Tahir Hemphill’s intern at Eyebeam. I helped him plug-in the data from the hip hop database he compiled, into the Protovis Data Visualization framework and created a few visualizations (which you can also see on my portfolio).
Tahir’s project is actually much more sophisticated than a database though. He is developing it into a tool for research and the visualizations are just a part of that. So, what I think is actually being exhibited is the idea of the project rather than the info viz stuff.
Now two of those visualizations are part of the Talk to Me exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City! The project is listed in the online catalog, so I’m just going to assume they will be there in the actual museum. I’ll have to go check it out in person when I go to Arcade next week.
Do you think I can cross out “be exhibited at the MoMA” off my to-do list?
