Steve Jobs Commencement Speech
Steve Job's Commencement Speech was alot to take in, I loved his message of not looking for the future to connect the dots for us but only dots can be connected when looking back. His section about being fired and reinventing himself resonances with me because alot of times I feel like failure discourages me and tells me maybe something isn't for me or it wasn't meant to be. Steve Jobs fought for his belief in his visions even when a room of directors and people he gave jobs, told him he wasn't thinking correctly or innovating in the right ways.
Mark Stock
I found this on Mark Stock's page and I found it really cool that he could decontexualize what something was and make it functional for another purpose. Mark Stock called it "Brushes with no paint" which is ironic because paint often comes in drums when buying large amounts. Mark Stock mixes art with magic and creates magically pieces by doing so.

Fastest Computer
well shocker on shocker street...... Japan has the fastest computer. I traveled there during my freshman year of high school and I know for a fact their toilets are like fucking laptops... buttons on the side to do god knows what. Here's a little info on K
OTR.com
To be honest I found the radio broadcast kind of interesting even with the really annoying static sound. I listened to Burns and Allen and it kind of reminded my of old tv sitcoms in a way. Three's Company is my all time favorite old sitcom and this transmission reminded me alot of the Chrissy and Jack relationship on the show. Similar to Jack and Chrissy, George and Gracie are two characters that seem to be relatively in the same position. Gracie is like Chrissy in the sense that she can be visualized as the ditzy blonde that always gets into a situation my being innocently naive to the world. George is like Jack in the sense that he doesn't believe that Gracie could be so ditzy but always helps her out of any situations she gets into.
