speech recognition: it works surprisingly well

katho Sep 28, 2009 19:55

so a while ago the keyboard on my laptop was broken. it's made it really irritating to try to do any work on this computer. but I finally figured out that I can install speech recognition ... or rather set up speech recognition ... on this computer. so now I'm trying to use speech recognition to write this entry, and it's working pretty well. it's ( Read more... )

Veil Musings

katho Jul 25, 2009 17:48

I just wanted to get these veil musings out.

Since book five I have been very bothered by the Veil. Not necessarily what it is -- I always thought that it was a gateway to the land of the dead was something we could probably assume.

Instead there are two things that bother me:

Why was it in an amphitheatre
Why didn't Harry obsess over this, like he did ( Read more... )

I don't know how long it's going to take me to write this entry or why I'm doing it really. but. (note: apparently at least2.5 months)

I'm back in Calgary now -- inlaws and my dad came around my birthday to help Ryan and I move home. It's definitely strange being back. I miss the people I met in Vancouver -- I was just really getting to know them ( Read more... )

Ah life

I wanted to post about my art this semester but then the semester happened, haha.

I think I'll do a recap when I have a chance. Which will probably fall around April17th. I will be back in Calgary on one of the days between the 30th of April and 2nd of May, and I would like to have a Small Birthday Get Together with whomever is in town. Sound OK?

Layout! Clouds.

Design Portfolio -- critique requested!

katho Dec 08, 2008 14:04

Hey guys,

So I've finished up my design portfolio to send out to people as I look for a co-op term in Calgary for the summer. PLEASE give me feedback! I need it, and I want to get a job being a DESIGN STAH so I need the trickedest-outest design in freakin evar.

Job hunting on your own is so scary. But I think I'm better at it than I was before co-op ( Read more... )

Painting -- the class, not the medium

katho Dec 01, 2008 17:22

I'm feeling really nervous right now. Even though I got a lot of good news today. [ETA: I don't know what day this was -- possibly Friday? I don't remember what good news I got on Friday ( Read more... )

My approach to art

katho Nov 11, 2008 15:06

One of our assignments in Sculpture/Printmaking (don't ask) is to write a short (500-1000) word essay on our approach to art. I thought I would post what I have so far. Any comments are welcome! The last paragraph is a bit of an orphan; I liked how I worded it, but now I have stated the thoughts earlier. So i will need to graft. But eh.

Election

katho Oct 13, 2008 23:34

This is going to be a very short post because I have crazy amounts of homework to do as I was in Calgary this weekend.

However, I need to express my confusion this election -- not about how I want to vote, but how I should vote. I'm in a close riding (last by-election, which I forgot about on election day, the liberal won by 151 votes over the ( Read more... )

election, crisis

Stuff

katho Sep 28, 2008 22:28

OK, I'll try to be a good blogger. To some extent.

I decided to take the digital video course. Here are some images I made for it. I like some of them -- I didn't hand them in, though -- instead I did a sound piece. The project was about the "space between stillness and motion" .. I slowed down and modified myself singing Summertime (a lullaby and ( Read more... )
