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
On the road and always on – Sunday Times Doors magazine
One of the phenomena that figured prominently in my ongoing media coverage was the very simple fact that I was in the same business. It was not uncommon to go into an interview with a reporter smirking at the bearded … Continue reading
An Interview With A Mac Using, Pioneering, Technomad
by Eolake Stobblehouse The Mac Observer Apr 19th, 2001 This is a nice interview piece from the Microship lab, with a Mac focus – the full text is here. It includes quite a bit of detail about the project… Eolake was … 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
World’s First Microship Sails into Saratoga Passage – Stanwood/Camano News
This was my small-town local paper for the 13 years I lived on Camano Island… a time that was actually a decade longer than intended (life has a way of doing that to you, especially when projects become too complex). … Continue reading
High Tech de Tocqueville – Expedition News

The Traveling Technophile – Home Office Computing
This is a follow-up to a piece by Daniel P. Dern in the same magazine, 6 years earlier… now discussing my transition to water with the Microship project. In real life, I had just set up a lab on Camano … Continue reading
Technomads – Stanwood Camano News
In early 1998, I bought a house with six wooded acres on Camano Island, Washington… ready to have my own workspace after many years moving in and out of borrowed labs (Apple, UCSD, Sun Microsystems, Borland International, friend’s houses…). Almost … Continue reading
Home Is Where You Hang Your “Autonomous Mobile Information and Communication Platform” – Outpost
This delightful Canadian travel and adventure magazine always had interesting destination pieces, and I was hoping to write for them from the seat of the Microship during the “Clueless and Lark” expedition. I’m happy to see that they are still … Continue reading
Microship project on KRON New Media News – video
This beautiful piece by Stan Bunger was filmed in Silicon Valley in late 1997, and aired shortly after we moved north to build a lab in the woods of Camano Island. Unlike typical local TV news programs, he took the … Continue reading
