Happy New Year all! I realize that my last post was in August and I haven’t made a peep since then. I’m happy to report that during that time I wasn’t dead but in fact finishing up my undergrad at Hunter College (BA in Geography). After 7 years and 3 schools I am finally a college graduate. Now the job hunt.

Since I have much more free time now I am looking forward to getting back to blogging on a more regular basis. Also look for a new blog redesign coming… eventually. I keep this site as a continual work in progress and have been working on a new design for some time now.

Also upcoming for 2010:

• If you liked the FutureMBTA then you will love the FutureMTA. Since moving to NYC 4+ years ago I’ve been playing around with creating an expanded version of the NYC subway. I doubt I will create a whole new website for it but who knows at this point.
• Robert Moses Google Maps for the entire city. This was a project I had been close to finishing earlier this year but a hard drive failure set me back a bit and I lost heart afterwards.
• New photography. If you follow my Flickr you probably have noticed that I haven’t updated that in a long time as well. The reason being is I’ve spent the last few months shooting only with my father’s 30 year old 35mm camera. I spent the time trying to find a new voice since I’ve gotten tired of shooting architecture/urban. While exploring the camera I really pushed myself to try things I wasn’t used to, like shooting people and shooting self portraits. Out of this came what I hope is my next great project, something that will actually take years to complete. More about this further into the year when I get some stuff set up.
• Music. I have to admit I was a little let down with music in 2009. There just wasn’t a whole lot out there that really inspired me. That isn’t to say there wasn’t a lot of good music but rather there wasn’t a lot of music that really pushed the envelope. I’m really hoping that 2010, the new year and the new decade, will bring some really exciting new sounds. I will do my best to bring to you what I find. This is a challenge to myself.

I wish you all a happy new year and I am happy to be back sharing my thoughts and cool findings with you all.
