Packing for Costa Rica!

Nadeem and I are going to Costa Rica for a week. I have been trying to pack since yesterday and my goal is to fit in a carry on bag. It’s hard to decide on what to take with me but here is an article on how to pack.

I am excited, I am taking my Canon film camera with me!

Free Useful Mac Applications!

This site hongkiat.com is a great resource. They have templates, free applications and a lot of other useful things I did not get a chance to check out yet. I did download a bunch of nice apps though. For example MindNode which is nice simple mindmapping application :

and Lumina by Kedisoft, for people like me who can’t keep the track of time while working on projects, this little app allows you to track your hours while working on your computer.

Next time I’m searching online like crazy for a free app. for some project I know where to look first!

Tell Me One more time Grandma…

is a beautifully nostalgic short film by my dear friend Beyza! She said she’ll be adding subtitles soon but I think watching it without understanding the words would be interesting too. UPDATE: find the subtitled version now below.

Flash

My first ever flash animation. When you click on the orange it says “portakal” which is orange in Turkish. When you click on it again it says “orange”. Very complex! Lynda.com tutorials were very helpful.

Did you know?

I just came across this video this morning but it seems like versions of it has been around for a while. For some reason the first thing I did today was to watch this video, and it was a great start for my day. It makes me -once again- want to work on a video project.

Enjoy!

“New camera promises to capture your whole life”

I just received an email from Beverly pointing out this new camera that is “promising to capture your whole life”. It remind me very much of my senior year first semester project PinTail, which is a camera, and much more in a jewelry like device. The whole idea revolved around passive recording. I am happy to see that the idea is already becoming real!
