http://www.oddevan.com/2014/justice.html

Slightly uneven since 2005. Nov 25, 2014. I’ve largely been silent on the issue of Ferguson, MO. Most of what I’ve said on the topic have been retweets. Of what other people have said. Since I’m not on the ground there, I’ve ceded my voice to those that are. Since this doesn’t feel like my story, I’ve ceded my voice to those who it is. With Monday’s announcement that there would be no trial (at least at the state level), that trust has been shaken. And so I write. These events have shaken my faith in the...

To Learn and Understand

Slightly uneven since 2005. To Learn and Understand. Apr 9, 2014. I am a big picture thinker and a perpetual dreamer. I love taking an idea and fleshing out the concept, and I’m continually inspired by the potential that today’s technology affords. If I’m in a room with a like-minded person, things can really take off. So what would happen if you put me in a room with over one hundred? And I attended Greenville Grok. The opening keynote by Kristian Andersen. I was also able to talk through some some of m...

The One I'm Waiting For

http://www.oddevan.com/2006/the-one-im-waiting-for.html

Slightly uneven since 2005. The One I'm Waiting For. Dec 21, 2006. We all have those mistakes. Mine was trading in my old NES. For Final Fantasy VIII. And a used copy at that. But it wasn’t Super Mario 3 that I missed the most, it was another platformer I had picked up called.

Slightly uneven since 2005. Sad Lyrics Over Uplifting Chords. I like Owl City. This is independent of my appreciation for Owl City. At their best, Owl City has a tendency to take me back to the late nights in my humid converted-attic bedroom the summer before my sophomore year of high school. To sum up a thousand-word essay in a sentence, it was the summer I really started letting my imagination free. Needless to say, it was a very formative ten weeks. Read more ».
