High of seventy-three (what a nice break from the heat!). Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers.
Goals:
Work:
- Read about DTrace on FreeBSD
No.
https://wiki.freebsd.org/DTrace/Tutorial
http://dtrace.org/guide/chp-intro.html
- Work on "network unavailable" Yealink issue
Done.
Ten minute walk at lunch. Left late. It's nice out, cloudy and cool.
Holy crap. Huge amount of mirth at work playing with the Asterisk PITCH_SHIFT function.
Home:
- Read more of Maze of the Blue Medusa
No.
Stopped at the grocery on the way home from work.
Took a twenty minute walk after I got home. Cloudy, but nice and cool.
Just sort of thinking about drawing and art.
What criteria would I use to evaluate the (technical) merits of a piece?
What things should I be practicing or thinking about for my own art education?
- Subject matter
- What did the artist choose to portray?
- Is it interesting?
- Composition
- How did the artist frame the scene and arrange the subjects?
- Does the composition add to or detract from interest in the subject?
- Are the arrangement of elements aesthetically pleasing in the abstract?
- Perspective
- What perspective did the artist choose?
- Is the rendering of the perspective technically accurate?
- Does the perspective add to or detract from interest in the subject?
- Lines
- Tone (light and dark, dense and sparse)
Breakfast: coffee with half-and-half, yogurt with berries
Lunch: Subway. Meh.
Dinner:
