Never Wait at a Barrier
LT | Jan 25, 2019This morning I opened Rolling Stone magazine to find an article called “Nick Kroll’s Filthy Teen Spirit.” Normally I would pass on something like this, but the exuberant, funny photographs of Kroll and two cartoon characters drew my attention… as did this quote in the first paragraph, said to have been whispered to Kroll in a restaurant by a 10-year old boy: “I’m not allowed to watch it, but I

LT | Apr 4, 2018Watching soaring birds at Bair Island Wildlife Refuge on Sunday had me chasing down techniques for depicting the passage of time in 2D and 3D form.
