Still playing with the XE1, natch. It’s old. But not as old as the last one I was using. So I don’t have to restrict it to bright daylight. This arm of the couch is Trinket’s current top fave evening spot.

I’ve finally got my little Fujifilm XE1 camera up and running and I’m so stoked to use it. I’m just going to explore using the in-camera jpegs for the time being. So here in testing is my old man - Prof Scott Millar to students who were amazed that any person could care so much about electro-cardiograms. In fact, he’s still at it. He’s working with a PHD student to develop an ECG app and I’m helping him put a little diagnostic ECG database together.

#mondaymonster! This is something our @sad_ivan has wanted to do since we set up our @krakatoa_band account (and a big part of why we’ve not done much with it so far.) But it’s here! And it’s going to be every Monday to banish the monsters of ennui and capitalism with #monsters! Tell yer mates!

We needed a stovetop kettle for the blackouts. My ma dug out my gran’s old one - from the 50s maybe? I remember this on her stove as a child in the 80s. Puffing steam for the first time in maybe 30 years.

David Goldblatt exhibition. It’s wonderful to see his prints in full, stark detail. Nothing nostalgic in his depiction of a time in which people gave their youth and health to make a tiny few rich.

I’m old enough to remember when ‘Made in Japan’ was code for cheap and shoddy goods. Even then it was out of date. I own American originals and this guitar smokes ‘em.

I haven’t had tekkies in years. But @withoutaleaf liked hers so much she got me a pair too. Apparently they’re copied from the official shoe of the ‘66 Mexican Olympics. Ok. Looks like it was The World Cup. I should have guessed.

I literally got every detail of our weekend gig wrong - except the venue. It’s on SUNDAY the 3RD at 3PM. To be fair it wasn’t all my fault. Plz pass on to interested parties. . .

I don’t know what time it’ll be and I misspelled Muizenberg. But it’ll be a reverb-soaked spectacle.

Every so often they sleep snuggled up like when they were babies. Slow photography months for me. Today I spent a mind frazzling time learning about 5 months worth of Javascript in 24hrs. #fakingittilyouremakingit might be the single strongest way to learn. They should teach airline pilots that way. “Just get in the cockpit. Sound confident on the intercom. Google the startup procedure. One of our experienced pilots will email you back within two hours if you get really stuck. #bigkittens #gremmies #catsofinsta #salaciouscrumb #effietrinket #crumb #trinket #sleepycats #capesummer ...
