Gonzo Wisdom – Reaching Escape Velocity mini-review in Make
I was most delighted to find my little Reaching Escape Velocity book mentioned in the pages of my favorite magazine — creative makers were exactly the readers I had in mind when writing it. The book covers the art of working … Continue reading
Tech-Nomading from Shore to Ship – Make: Magazine
This is one of my all-time favorite bits of media coverage, and not just because I love Make: magazine (both print and blog). The author of this piece, Howard Wen, really nailed the essence of my technomadic projects… including the … Continue reading

Usability Professionals Association keynote address – 2000
For a few years, I was in the active stable of Keynote Speakers bureau, and every few months would load BEHEMOTH into a trailer and trundle off across the US for a gig… usually filling in the gaps with more … Continue reading
A Modern Odyssey – Sports Illustrated
This is quite out of context with my normal media appearances over the years; I have never thought of myself as an athlete (and certainly not the kind who would be featured in Sports Illustrated). This was part of a … Continue reading
