I had a really fun day… And most of the fun was working. Its been quite a while since Ive been able to say that. My knew role is requiring me to learn a ton of new stuff…. And that’s what I love doing most of all.
It wasn’t all work though… I had a good before work meeting with my nerd friend mike… And then after work had a meeting with friends Joe and Jim and colleagues at Essex tech about their new fab lab . They’ve for their space designed and are now choosing their first tools . With luck they’ll be open next fall. Their facility will mix techies with art nerds and graphics designers. All using the magic of laser cutters and 3d printers . Its going to be totally ‘fab’

After that I met Diane and friends john, and Patti at On The Rise to hear our friend Berta’s wind ensemble. Berta’s a very accomplished flautist . She was joined by a clarinetist and an oboist (obotista ?). They played Briton, Haydn , Telemann, Bach and (after I left) Beethoven. It was really beautiful music and all three women were clearly in love with what they were doing.

From ther, friend john and I came back to the house and worked on a multimedia device were designing. Were trying to get the last bit of delay out of the music… Made good progress tonight with some telephone help from max down in NYC. It’s SO fun working with both john and Max on these projects. Sure beats working alone and I’m learning from both of them. John has been a great asset in this project and on the pumpkin robot.
Speaking of max. Here’s what he’s working on tonight… A light up Buddha . How cool is that ?

Ok. Gotta sleep.
Night all, night Sam
