A wee mess with p5.js Web Editor I’ve been watching Tom Smith‘s sketches on twitter with interest. I’ve not spent enough time playing with this, but potential for a lot of fun. One good thing is the cloning of interesting projects.

joe jenett (the.dailywebthing.com)Nature Soundmap – Hear the world like never before
Reminded me of Sound maps – UK Soundmap | British Library – Sounds where the sounds were crowd sourced. A lot of fun to join in with.
A quick Glitch embed, a small css animation test. I’ve been messing about with glitch for a while. It is an interesting free tool. An online editor that can edit html, css and JavaScript. It can also add a node.js and SQLite on the server end. This makes it a more powerful system than service that only allow you to edit the front end.
The above page only uses html and css. I made am almost useful page Flickr Poem Promptr a while back that dug a little deeper.

Read the thread.
“When #edutwitter celebrities say stupid things, if you choose to respond, screenshot the tweet, and respond to your screenshot. This does a few things.”
Interesting thread.
It was a great shock to hear about Dai’s passing. I did tear up as I read the news and had it confirmed through some retweet and reply detective work. The notion of human mortality reared its head into the mundanity of family routine on a Sunday evening. Cooking and planning for the week ahead wasn’t quite the same as I was reminded that life is fragile and sometime it’s lost in an exhale and doesn’t return.
2 in @macgenie‘s photo challenge: Movement. This is a slitscan of a heron taking flight from last year. I though there was something calligraphic about it?
“Ooft. That was a bit scary. My mac just crashed and then went through a whole series of system updates when I tried to reboot. Back online now.”
I had a weird one this morning too, rebooted an update and didn’t come back. Booted to a 30 minute install. Clinging to my SuperDuper! Security blanket
@macgenie Patience. Waiting for Hazel nuts to ripen.
