We started with a quick hike up the Bamforth Ridge. We couldn’t go to the top because I had some meetings I had to go to… But we enjoyed being in the snow. There were some really interesting ice formations in Gleeson Brook
Mid day had a visit from old IBM friend Larry W. He was well known at IBM for being a deep thinker… and very good problem solver. He ages taught for several years at Dartmouth at VTC where he was my friend Jake’s favorite Prof. It was fun showing him around Beta… its sooooo different from IBM. He asked many good questions .. as expected. I feel he’d like working at BETA.
After Larrys visit I helped re-arrange the creative area at work .. which was a fun mental exercise in changing things up (thought it was later put back just as it was… ) . In the process I realized that my friend Mike’s red checked shirt was not exactly like mine.. he is pocket is rotated she he has DIAMONDS ! (reminded me of the famous ‘Diamond Shreddies’ ad
The day ended with a select board meeting.. which was interesting. Diane and I are on a recreational parking committee.. We had a read out with eh select board that went pretty well. We’re trying to help with a complicated parking problem where there are no easy answers. It did feel good to try to help the town figure this out. It is also fun looking at all the old pictures in the town offices. Here are some old pictures of our village of Jonesville .
Finally.. I got some time to work with the new Touchdesigner flow that my friend Kyle M is helping me develop for fluffy next year. the idea is to automate the “layerization” and make it more controllable wrt. sound response and other controls. so far so good !
That was a busy day !
