The Kodak Brownie Fiesta sat under many Christmas trees and on many birthday gift tables between 1962 and 1965 (or 1966; sources disagree). It was available by itself for about $6 or in a $10 outfit containing a flash holder, batteries, flashbulbs, film, and a strap. That $10 kit was meant to impress in its cute...
At the end of a recent residential singing weekend I was acutely aware of absence when everyone had left. The silence was almost painful. It got me thinking about the different kinds of silence in singing. There are three kinds of silence in all music: before, during and after. Before The silence before singing is...
In this series of posts, we’ll be featuring mathematical video and streaming channels from all over the internet, by speaking to the creators of the channel and asking them about what they do.

But this week is a very special episode in the Howey household. It’s cameo time! Shay and I had an amazing set visit during the filming of season 3. I...

I've been aware of it before, and having some spare time I decided to check it out. This is part of a vague desire to return to meditating. The centre is in an...
I once wrote here that sometimes I forgot about August 17, the (supposedly) Indonesia’s independence day had I didn’t checked my social media timeline and saw videos of folks doing the flag ceremony or kampung festivities. Today, I wanted to forget about it, because I honestly feel that there is no point of...
Our daily summer routine here in Las Vegas starts with a cup of coffee at 4 a.m. while we catch up on the news. Then we grab our water bottles and head out the door by 5 a.m. for our morning walk, taking advantage of what passes for the coolest part of the day. Even then, typical summer temperatures are already in...
