Today I sat in the yard, watched spaghetti westerns and ate spaghetti.

Sunday afternoon trying to remember how to code HTML and Javascript... the late 90s web.
Hours later and shaving the yak/installing a new set of dev tools (it gets old writing in notepad) I have remembered the code! Viva 1999!

Enjoying my first day back at Chez Vescent. Some much GTD.
Today starts two weeks of writing in the Mojave. Good thing I brought my hula hoop, baton and bokken.
Dog viewing Mojave sunset circa now http://instagram.com/p/pKxUpLJvTR/
Up by 6am. Hike to nearby rockpile & meditate. Return home for breakfast & coffee - soundtrack Ludwig Van. Now to work. Life in the Mojave.
I'm so amused at my wifi network name at the dome. Can't wait to get feedback from my guests. LOLOL
@tnpuig you'll just have to visit! ;) My home network wifi name is also LOLtastic and neighborhood appropriate.
@SSquire ooohhh, that is cool.
@FrancisJeffrey7 indeed they do. Mr Dog knows the Mojave well. We keep it coooool. :)
Waiting for the moon to rise. With homebrew Kombucha sangria. http://instagram.com/p/pNYxWapvZz/
Watching the moon rise in the Mojave to Aphex Twin is my idea of bliss.
There were communities that laid the bedrock on which the LA tech boom now grows. Find those ghosts. #geekdinner @NellieBowles
Read a few old school twitter pals (joined early 2007) to get the @Recode LA hype taste out of my mouth. Dig deeper on research next time.

@ericgarland what does a free and open market for Taxes look like?
@ericgarland nation-state perks... what would those be? citizenship? I don't understand how basic research or trade negos are perks

@lisarokusek can you say more? @ericgarland
Guns and juicing - cause that's how I roll.
@lisarokusek Agreed. I think this concept is coming from another place - not govnt or innovation. I'll check out your NYer reco @ericgarland
@tbeckett @lisarokusek @ericgarland because nation states / borders are becoming useless. Individuals are global these days.
@lisarokusek @tbeckett @ericgarland *becoming* not *are*. I'd love to find a way where they don't lose relevance and contribute positively.
@lisarokusek @tbeckett @ericgarland and so do individuals and collectives. invisibilization of nation states might not be a bad thing.
@lisarokusek @tbeckett @ericgarland or it could be decline into fiefdom.
@lisarokusek ok, I'm intrigued ... tell more... or have you written about it? Honestly curious! :)
@ericgarland @lisarokusek @tbeckett yeah, but what about their citizens? Their citizens want more nation state?

@FrancisJeffrey7 60s psychedelic more your style? Well, then, I'll meet you in the Court of the Crimson King.
@ronmichael well, most corps barely last 30 years. The ones that last 100 years I think should continue since they understand adaptation
@damoun you are very welcome. I'll see your posse down on Broadway.
Morning writing, a prayer to Chatwin music by etherial Tycho, in my cool desert cocoon.
@ronmichael Apple is merely 38, Walmart is 52 - both have a long way to mature and truly understand their impact on the market ecosystem

@ronmichael Very welcome! And thanks for the fastco article. I will check it out.
30 mph wind, ants, coyotes, rattlesnakes and now a water break. My (overcome) trials of the Mojave.
RT @sblackmoore: @heathervescent Truly, you are a child of the desert.
2000 words, music theory practice, coyotes howling. Just another night in the desert.
@paulikomonen glocal futurists!
Channeling Bruce Chatwin today worked! To bed we go with the songlines. I love sleeping with the masters.
Eris. The DAO. It's like it's some kind of eastern chaos theory religion. Where are the machine elves?
@sblackmoore @jayewells I've got a whole glass jar of drunk cherries. Wanna come over for a drink?
As a cacophonist, me and Eris go way back. Amusing seeing her concepts applied to the financial industry.

@rtgarden Bingo!
Looking at my @RestoHardware brick of magazines and can't help but think back to @AOL 's mass mailed CDs back in the day.
Memories of the Mojave feed my soul in Hollywood. I smile, think of the open sky, the hot wind on my skin, sand roads and rock piles.
