Caine’s Arcade

| May 2, 2012 | Categories: Inspiration

There’s really nothing quite as cool as the free-spirited creativity of kids. Caine, a 9 year old boy, built an extensive cardboard arcade he calls Caine’s Arcade. This video shows what happened when one person found it interesting and decided to share. Very inspiring stuff.

Optical Illusion Painting & Time Lapse

| February 13, 2012 | Categories: Inspiration

Real happy to see creativity running in the family. My cousin, Jeff Frost, roamed the deserts of California and Utah looking for abandoned structures to paint and photograph. Enormous amounts of work went into planning and shooting 40,000 still images for this video. Not only that, but the painting and video editing are just as impressive. Well worth 4 minutes of your time.

Wilson Miner – When We Build

| February 2, 2012 | Categories: Inspiration, Tips

This is hands down one of the most inspiring talks I’ve ever seen. In other words, this dude killed it. Wilson reminds us to think about the future we’re designing because we’ll have to live in it someday. Set aside 40 minutes and get inspired. I sure did.

Warning: Feelings of regret that you didn’t get to see it in person are imminent.

Rare Footage of Steve Jobs from 1980

| January 25, 2012 | Categories: Inspiration

This is amazing 23-minute footage of Steve Jobs discussing Apple in 1980. The audio & video getting a little shoddy in the middle, but it’s still great.

“Man is a toolmaker, and has the ability to make a tool to amplify an apparent ability that he is.” He certainly did a wonderful job of that with computers. Thank you Steve!

This video was gifted to Computer History Museum by Regis McKenna and can be found on their online exhibit about Steve Jobs here: http://www.computerhistory.org/highlights/stevejobs/

Indoor Rock Climbing Spotlight

| January 13, 2012 | Categories: Inspiration

As a dude who sits at a computer mostly all day for work, and then does even more sitting in front of a computer after work for pleasure, I’ve been looking for a new form of exercise. My problem is I get bored with running or lifting heavy items, so I haven’t really stuck with an exercise routine in quite some time. Needless to say, this new form of exercise needed to be fun or there’s no way I would stick with it.

For the past few weeks, I’ve been going to Texas Rock Gym and climbing rock walls for fun. I’m having a blast so far. With all other hobbies I pick up, I was looking for ways to improve either my strength or my techqnique when I came across this inspiring video about indoor rock climbing. Enjoy!
