So I’ve Missed A Few Days Of Daily Doodles.  Sue Me! :-D  Life Happens, And I’ve Chosen Not To

Jude "St. Jude" Milhon (March 12, 1939-July 19, 2003)

Jude Milhon, generally known as St. Jude, was an author and hacker whose achievements span many corners of hacker culture. Her work with seminal cyberpunk showcases Mondo 2000 and Boing Boing, her work in cypherpunk (a term she coined, and movement she founded), and her righteous and mischievous persona continue to inspire.

I liked basing a drawing on the userpic of my 400th Twitter follwer so much that I decided to make it a habit for every hundredth follower after that.  Here's a fifteen-minute sketch of my 500th follower, who just happens to be my old pal @jayeennenn.  Jenn's an old-school telephone enthusiast like myself, among other things she archives old telephone company recordings, so I dug up the last telephone book left in my house and doodled her on the telephone page.

I must point out that Jenn is more attractive than her userpic or this sketch of her userpic would suggest.  I'd snark at her extreme-eyeball-close-up avatar and tell her to go back to MySpace with that stuff but, well..

I was screwing around with the Doctor Who Red Nose Day special short "Space/Time" (see those first if you haven't) and this accidentally happened.

Not afraid to say Happy Solstice! 🌝🌞

There are only so many combinations available.

Callie and Izzy is an upcoming webseries it’s been my pleasure to be part of.  The show is by Nicola Rose, with whom I’ve previously worked on The Media Show and the musical Aisle Six.

More info coming soon, keep an eye on it!

Grace Hopper (December 9, 1906-January 1, 1992)

Rear Admiral Grace Hopper, USN, Ph.D., or "Amazing Grace" as she is often known to her admirers, was a computer scientist and programmer whose pioneering work on early computers as well as her amiably no-nonsense attitude when teaching continues to inspire.

She is known for distributing "nanoseconds," lengths of wire spanning the distance light travels in that amount of time, at her speaking engagements.

I decided to try my hand at Troll Physics.  Let's all do this and party in space!

I definitely put my faith in Blast Hardcheese. 

I made this remix at least 100 years ago, it never fails to make me happy that other folks keep circulating it, making it into videos like this, etc.  It's the reason I ended up choosing the domain SpaceMutiny.com for my music.

Digital portrait of my best friend Grey Frequency, in the style of Shepard Fairey's OBEY.  See what I did there?

I originally made this for the desktop library on the New York City 2600 website I run with Grey, surprising her with it.  It quickly became my favorite thing to cause computers in public places to display.  I heartily endorse your doing the same with it, especially if Grey is nearby.
