What most interestingly relates these two areas of thought and development - art-making and programming - is the structure of their fundamental elements and the way I am able to build with and upon these elements. With art, its language (aesthetic) is all self-defined and always in a fluxing state of adaption/reaction, while the mediums and processes that bring this language to life are very much dependent on scientific understanding and logical reasoning. With programming, the languages (code) are defined but there are many and their structures can be widely diverse and complex. I must work within rules but those rules are themselves simply atoms to construct new functions and other languages from. The possibilities with each are imaginatively extensive. + Read More

half-sentences
Tuesday, September 22, 2009It dawned on me the other day that I think in half-sentences. I go mid-way through articulating/writing out a thought and then lose the words. + Read More
Neil commented on 22-Sep-2009 11:21 PM Haha !! You know, me too. I find that if I can vocalize multiple thoughts into a singular, comprehensible statement my mind is at ease with those thoughts. Even if only for a short time. Then the cycle repeats itself ! jeanie commented on 28-Sep-2009 09:57 AM Ebi!!! I just thought of you when reading an article in my art education class. I'm going to email you about it. I thought your video was beautiful. :) I also wanted to comment on your post about how you find you don't think in complete sentences. I wanted to say that is A-OKAY, and I've read somewhere that it actually means you're a wonderful thinker. It means you have many bits of substances to share all at once and really, the end of the sentence doesn't matter as much as the content/ substance. As long as you have someone to revise and edit your written work, you'll be fine -- 100%. I am very encouraged by the work that you do Ebi! will be emailing you.
