CreativeQ
2023 - Built with Javascript The original site is here I’ve been collecting various quotes for many years. One of my favorite genres has been quotes about creativity. In this project I had scraped Good Reads and looked for quotes that had anything to do with art and creativity. Stored them in a Postgres table. Created an API using ValTown from where I am using it to pass through when calling against the postgres instance. Right now it simply is a little tool to ponder on quotes.

Physical Calligraphy
The following work has been a bit of a reflection and getting away from the screen for a little bit. When working on a masters, working a full time job and then enjoying program. There becomes a point I need to get away from the work and take some time to do something more craftsmanlike. Calligraphy has been a practice of mine for many of years. You will find that there are a number of different forms that are built into each of the images. I’ll update with better images but for right now these are the ones that I have.

So I wanted to see if I could pull out the images, analyze the information so that I could determine the peaks in the Red color channel and pull out some of the information that could be used.

Creative Sinkholes
Originally written in 2014 on Medium Believing that something is crap, is creative indigestion. It inhibits your power to create, sucks your soul’s happiness and breeds stress and rejection. It becomes a waste of time, rather than further develop. We discontinue this crap that we have mistaken as no creativity. This is a perception that needs to be overcome and dealt with. But how do you overcome? 1. Don’t Limit your Creativity As people we generally want to be like the Jones. This is inherent; we deem it necessary to survive in the vivacious world of competition. But,
