The Art and Science of Survival

I like Blurb books. I’ve made a few, but my favourite is a collection of poems created to match images initially grouped only because they ‘looked good together’. The idea was to start with the image, then think of a matching title, then write the poem. As an experiment in creating a collection of work which is connected, and with...

Baby Saatchi

(Updated 2018 for archive.) Baby Saatchi was a project about content, and centred around the idea of ‘Rogue, Sasstacular’. It embodied numerous sources interlinking scraped image feeds plus additional content pulled from gadgets, science, tech, design, fashion, travel and comics, so creating new identified (branded) content. I used Facebook and Flipboard to achieve this. The main hub of Baby Saatchi...

    Data breach at Twitter. I was alerted through Nord VPN Dark Web alerts that there had been a possible date breach at Twitter. BE AWARE. I just received an email asking for feedback from support I requested on 20th of January, asking me to rate the support. I didn't ask for any support. This confirms […]

    Another earthquake in Malta, the biggest yet of various tremors over past few weeks. The seismic activity monitor at university says its 5.3 but it felt much more and lasted about 8 seconds. All my computer monitors were shaking!#earthquake #malta #Mediterranean

    Migrating wordpress to Grav. I tested wp2grav (7 years old) found on old forum posts for exporting WP to Grav. It still works fine, generating markdown with accurate front matter and retaining all urls, plus any in line images (not featured images). Just dump the posts in a new list page subfolder and they show […]

    Progressing well with Grav. It's a really good experience to be back doing some dev and brushing up my (basic) git skills. I'm running this in Laragon, which is great, and updated to php8.1. Windows bash works nicely and everything is on a SanDisk USB drive. Theme is Striped, using Markdown Extra, set up a […]

    Tomorrow is Friday and I have a gap in "allocated tasks" (aka slog) so I'm devoting the day to reacquainting myself with git (on windows to make it harder) and learn more about Grav. This will divert my attention from dangerous thoughts about jacking in work altogether and becoming a surf bum.#work #dropout #git #webdev […]
