De La Soul and the City of Asylum Jazz Concert – An Unfamiliar Current

https://anunfamiliarcurrent.wordpress.com/2013/09/22/de-la-soul-and-the-city-of-asylum-jazz-concert

De La Soul and the City of Asylum Jazz Concert. A week ago, I went to see De la Soul with my friend Angela. Squinting Angela is trying really hard to smile, but the sunlight may won the battle. The show was part of a larger festival, called the Thrival. The stage before DLS came on. They performed many songs from “Three Feet High and Rising”, my favorite of their albums. I couldn’t stop dancing. The Mexican War Streets. Each writer receives two years of a living stipend with medical benefits and long-ter...

Why I Chose Windows Phone – An Unfamiliar Current

https://anunfamiliarcurrent.wordpress.com/2014/10/23/why-i-chose-windows-phone

Why I Chose Windows Phone. The Nokia Lumia 520. My simple, stylish and petite Windows Phone model. I bought a Windows Phone. It was a risky decision, but to be honest, I love it! Early in college, in a pinch, I bought a simple Android phone that ran on Gingerbread, happy that it had Google Maps on it. It was slow, but it did what it had to do, and, of particular interest to my poor old college self, it was super cheap. No harm, no foul right? A Bit About Windows Phone. Start and the Live Tiles. Certain a...

An Unfamiliar Current - Page 2

https://anunfamiliarcurrent.wordpress.com/page/2

New Name, New Attitude. Yes, I changed the appearance again, but fear not, this is the last appearance change. I needed the blog to more accurately match the look of the portfolio site that it is connected to. I decided not to change the name because I feel that I am still currently unfamiliar with the world around me. I’m in my senior year of college, and I feel like I’m going to making new discoveries for a long time, most likely until I die. September 14, 2013. September 2, 2013. September 2, 2013.

Let’s Talk About Synths – An Unfamiliar Current

https://anunfamiliarcurrent.wordpress.com/2014/10/23/lets-talk-about-synths

Let’s Talk About Synths. Maybe this is what my apartment will look like in the future…? The Korg Volca Beats. A neat little beat box that is styled in the theme of older synths from back in the day. I’m hoping that the little guy will become my first synth. Many of these experiences require the user to interact with screens primarily in order to use them, and I’m wondering if there are contexts in which services would benefit from more tactile experiences such as the tweaking of knobs on a synth, o...

What am I getting into? – An Unfamiliar Current

https://anunfamiliarcurrent.wordpress.com/2014/07/28/what-am-i-getting-into

What am I getting into? Me, my mom and my brother, Braxton, on graduation day. The Long, Hard Road Out of Pittsburgh. Woogie (brother of Teenie) Harris’ barber shop in the Hill District, Pittsburgh, circa 1940s. The components of Leo, a project geared toward helping high schoolers to navigate their professional futures. So where am I now? Flushing Chinatown is becoming so large that it is estimated in a year or so, it will dwarf the population of the famous Manhattan Chinatown. Concept. Announced at ...
