The paradox of water

Nothing in the world is as soft and yielding as water. Yet for dissolving the hard and inflexible, nothing can surpass it. - Lao-tzu in the Tao Te Ching, from a translation by S. Mitchell

The noise is deafening

[…] with just-in-time-delivery and what-have-you-done-for-me-lately being sovereign, everything is of the moment, and the noise is deafening. - Ken Alexander, in the July/August 2007 editorial of The Walrus

Lifeslice #2 - Daylight Factory, Stars & Desk@District

Lunch yesterday at Daylight Factory. Delicious!!! Great little hidden patio too.

If you haven’t checked out Stars’ Do You Trust Your Friends? album featuring covers of their songs, you really should. The second track by The Dears is all sunshine and wind in your hair.

I’ve been freelancing regularly with District, a new creative/interactive shop that is being launched within Bell Web Solutions (which since January 1st has absorbed Cesart and the team of people I have been working with). Yours truly is helping to craft District’s brand and communications materials. Anyhow, I have a desk in their new space at 700 Wellington, which is a welcome change from the home office:

Facebook

Facebook is like a friend who camps out in your living room for ever, but who you like so much you can’t bear to kick them out.

Need I say more?
