@gak_pdx @venunarla —Personally, I don’t think it’s in the “perceivable” category. More of a subconscious “feel”. Helvetica vs Haas Grotesk?
@gak_pdx @venunarla You mean “back-of-the-fence obsession’s fine if you have the budget for it / aim for the high-end, otherwise, it’s bad?”
@gak_pdx @venunarla — Thanks! Read it. Yes, agree with Ben Einstein. Similar to how things happen in other industries.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — My opinion is back of the fence painting is worth mostly for the team, for the pride. I write PHP/SQL no-one sees.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — That’s weird. Apple didn’t start out perfect and flawless.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — Smart design == a lot more than just detail obsession :D (taste, ergonomics, prototyping, iteration, testing, etc.)
@gak_pdx @venunarla — Ah, yes, that, I totally agree with. Bad idea. It’s like shooting Star Wars with 1 M budget. Something’s got to give.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — It’s subtle, and yes, maybe not worth it. But then, what’s worth it to you / your team /subcont? This should be clear.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — Maybe detail-obsession should be spelled out before the start of the project? I do with mine, plan and budget for it.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — It didn’t ruin the film, though.
@gak_pdx @venunarla Like Tarkovski asking to remove dandelions from a Stalker scene, invisible to the camera, but “felt” subliminaly.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — Oh! Late decisions? No, that’s a bad idea. You’re either fussy from the start or you’re not, it should be clear.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — Sorry about that, I may be misinterpreting something you say.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — OK, let’s get back on track. We’re talking about the approach to manufacturing and design, the processes, right?
@gak_pdx @venunarla — Well, as you said earlier, it really depends on the product / service. Plus the end-goal. Survive or excel?
@gak_pdx @venunarla — Agree. However, it’s so much easier to sell low _or_ high end products than mid-range.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — Well, yes, mediocrity prevails any day, law of large numbers, stats average, entropy et al. Not newsworthy :D.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — Agree. Also depends on the culture. In Switzerland, craftsmanship / repairability / insides are part of the norm.
@gak_pdx @venunarla — The first one, sure. The subsequent releases flooding the market? Less sure ;). Buyer segmentation, nothing fancy.
@venunarla @gak_pdx I admit I know little about Nest’s processes, so I might not be best for a debate. In film, these hidden details matter.
@gak_pdx — Agree on the delays and costs. Disagree on morale. How else do you get high-end results? Cosmetic outsides aren’t enough, right?
@gak_pdx — Why?
Competition to @Canon 17-120, albeit opening at 3,5 vs 2,95 at the wide end. I love options. Next: weatherproofing! https://t.co/4772pWpGdg
@tferriss — Ask the parents (who have even more trouble letting go of books) to adopt them :D. I gave paper-books to my dad, kept digitals.
@benoitdanard — Merci pour l’info de l’event, Benoît.
@gak_pdx — Agree on the Sinn, although I find the https://t.co/BaC3ohwO82 more legible and practical worldwide.
Remember — scientia potentia est — #knowledge is unrealized potential. Results come out of applied #power, #action directed by #knowledge ;)
@goldsmith_f — Merci! Y’aurait de quoi faire…
@sharonwaxman @TheWrap — That’s so cute ;).
@gak_pdx — The Producers, the Studio… at least, I hope so. At least, money-making wise good :D.
#Documentary producers debate (negotiate :) with @VinceLeclercq of @LeCNC @CinemaDuReel moderated by @Dom_at_Bellota https://t.co/RxiMDBtXSX
@gak_pdx — Well, you can, but only when knowing the shrewd reasons behind the US “investment” in Iraq (of both money & people) ;).
@zeldman — Mmm… yeah, imagine @IMDb re-asking us all the image files for each film, in higher res, to even remotely making it happen.
@dom_at_bellota — Yep, meet you there.
Most people mistake #pleasure for #happiness. Once you get the differences between the 2, you’ll move much closer to the latter ;).
@TedHope—Got one ready for you. 92 pages. Adventure biopic about a Euro photog, shot in RU FR DE. In English. Mix of Mirror & Trainspotting.

So weird. @Google selling @BostonDynamics less than 3 years after buying it? What were they thinking in the first place?

Something’s wrong with this #system. https://t.co/sTWESYXzF2
@gak_pdx — Of course, that’s the Swiss minimalist craziness :).
@goodinaroom Excellent advice about excellent scripts. However I guess most want to know how non-excellent content gets a meeting & green ;)
@alispagnola—Hmm, thanks for the tip! I forgot this one, did similar variations in Soviet school. Amazing how different my perception is now
@gak_pdx — Yes, and I think it’s due to the generalized “abuse of power” bias in humans. The WC janitors love to boss around in similar way.

Wow, this email from @Relativity’s Kavanaugh to @Netflix’s Sarandos is ugly: https://t.co/xiyCFf0J60 — must-read if you’re in #indiefilm
OK, I think I’ve got it. Best #film’s are made by #masochist’s. Who else would choose to live in #LA or #Moscow? :D
@jspector @Larakate — Hmm, maybe because Twitter is shorter and somehow feels less barrier-ed? I get better conversations here.
@fitnessinpost—Oh, thanks! Interesting! Haven’t heard about TBC Consoles. Which model do you have? They have huge flight-control like stuff.
@gak_pdx - :) Physics is physics. I thought brake fluid was special, before trying Fairy liquid soap as a makeshift alternative.
@fitnessinpost @Adamski I sense the connoisseur! Actually both! @IKEA sells motorized stand-sit Galant for certain countries. What do u use?
Excellent, broad interview of Zygmunt Bauman. Failure of #democracy, #regionalism, interdependence, #socialMedia: https://t.co/EajhwnxMYW
@Adamski — I have Bowflex 1090 under the editing table, so, instead of waiting on @Facebook… I’m improving #steadicam form and stamina!
@Adamski—Had to use short but imprecise term. Ingest / lib mgmt take most time. But 15 min isn’t so long. Enough for upper-body low-reps :D.
Don’t want to go to the #gym? Don’t! Buy a set of adjustable dumbbells, a bench and lift at home! I #exercice while waiting #FCPX to render.
@gak_pdx — Yep, @Leica_camera has completely missed the digital turn. Similar to @Kodak. None of the 1950’s avant-garde thinking.
@gak_pdx @Zappos_Service—Handling is almost the same wherever you ship, invoicing is auto, customs are a customer’s concern. I’m OK to pay.
@gak_pdx @Zappos_Service Well, @BHPhotoVideo’s been shipping to us in Europe since 1998. Zero problems both ways with @UPS. Orders over 20K.
So, it’s 2016 and @Zappos_Service still does not ship to #Europe?! Unbelievable.
Less than 3% of #indiefilm submitted got selected for @SundanceFest. Out of 4000+ features. Imagine watching them all in 1 year, 11 a day!
Finally! According to @Uber, starting tomorrow 08:00, pick-ups directly at the @flyLAXairport will work! Hope it’s not another false start!
@goodinaroom — Agree that it has little to do with Blake Snyder and everything to do with marketability (pleasing huge crowds for sales).
This is big. Although the #consolidation in our lives and businesses is quite scary. https://t.co/sHmBKbCS0z
@bonniegillespie — It’s kinda weird, knowing that @Amazon is behind, with their much hyped AWS.

@chrismcquarrie — Also agree about the attitude. I used both Macs and PCs, shot both film and digital. We should be pragmatic, not dogmatic.
@chrismcquarrie—Agree about the nostalgia / feeling of loss. I felt it when @Kodak filed for 11, even though I had already converted.
@chrismcquarrie—To me (and not only), shooting film today is going the extra mile, hence my initial wondering. Esp at night (Vienna, London)
@chrismcquarrie—When you say “film’s not hard to use”, do you compare with digital? Exa: a @Panavision on a steadicam is heavier than a RED.
@chrismcquarrie — To my eyes, the blacks is the main weakness of film, look at what happened in Green Zone. Kodachrome was cool, though.
@chrismcquarrie—I always thought of both as tools, and whichever works best depends on taste and prod style (nimble vs deliberately slow).
@chrismcquarrie—OK about the invaluables of digital. I agree about the mechanical shutter. What do you think about @Elysium post-prod grain?
@chrismcquarrie—What were the film’s invaluables to you (other than highlights and grain)? Yep, I know about your use of the Alexa XT & 65.
@chrismcquarrie @gjlewis10 My original tweet was wondering about your choice given today’s tech, not arguing. Night scenes, action, bikes…
@chrismcquarrie—I’ve never rushed to bury a tool I’ve used since 1997. The pros dissapeared for _me_ in 2011. I think _your_ result is great
@LordOfSwede—Sure, but in my opinion, the current tech allows smaller, nimbler setups, especially for night scenes and anything that moves.
@chrismcquarrie—I respect your choice and did say “whatever works”. What were the pros for you? I switched from film for ISO, size & speed.
Still cant wrap my head around @ChrisMcQuarrie having #shot @MissionFilm on #film. Prod hassle. @MadMaxMovie’s smarter. Well, whatever works
@pheek — Go for it JP!

@hurlbutvisuals—Haven’t seen any new stuff, but finally seen Black Sea (partially shot with C500) Have you seen it? Worth a look photo-wise.
@elizabethkarr—Ideally! But @TedHope’d argue you need to be ubiquitous to survive an era of over-abundance and hence need to produce more ;)

@maryjaneskalski My wish to my parents would be to hold less #illusion about themselves, society, #art & the universe. The rest is derived.
@UnwinPaul — Bon courage! Try to continue having a bit of fun regardless of the difficulty.

Wow, @Netflix is really snatching some talent these days. Correlate with @nytimes change of #indiefilm review policy https://t.co/yejhk2PERF
@elizabethkarr @ElizaHittman—Who’s work? Tarkovsky’s or Solonitsyn’s? I’d recommend Rublev, Solaris, Stalker, after which Anatoly died at 47
@elizabethkarr @ElizaHittman — Yep. The trick is to get an actor who’s been through real shit. Like Solonitsyn. Experience shines through.
@tferriss —How about an update about transferring this to on-screen reading? Say, a MacBook or iPad, no pencil or greasy finger allowed :) ?
Less downtime on #film set (zoom instead of prime, no actor marks, 360° lighting, multi-cam, hourly dailies) = less #stress, money, fatigue.
Why the general public feels more confortable to comment on #film? Never got as much feedback on #photography. #Cinema = #art of the masses?
@Alex4D — Totally agree! Some kind of inter-linking with various editor guilds, unions and associations around the world would be great too.
Info-rich day of #French #indiefilm prod by @fedejpi: no #TV pilots, huge gov-sponsorship, lengthy devs, societal disconnect, genres misrep.

Intriguing article by @vRizov for @FilmmakerMag on bypassing festivals for direct & free online #indiefilm exposure: filmmakermagazine.com/94190-khalik-a…
@alisonwillmore — Ha ha, yes, typical! That’s one of the reasons there’s the Med and some festival outside. Enjoy ;) .
@vrizov—No problem, sorry defaulted to RU. Interesting read! We skipped fests in similar way for KvadratMovie.com but for diff reasons

@paulmac708 — I suspect festivals might have been burned by bad experience with blu-rays in the past, might be second reason. Who shoots SD?
@paulmac708 —Exactly! I tweeted exactly the same thing a month ago ( https://t.co/66VQhzOxGB ). Crazy. Even iPhone film is HD. What % is SD?
@Directors_UK — Excellent initiative!
@ellardent — What I meant was that to switch from 1 form (tech shorthand for crew) to another form (Twitter) is non-trivial for a director.
@ellardent — The 3 (shoot/meetings/Twitter) require different form of expression but the intrinsic info is the same, is that what you meant?
@ellardent — Sorry, I might. Where do you think I went off-track?
@chinoixchinoix — Interesting project!
@ellardent — Are you even more eloquent :D ? Seriously, script meetings are different than the shoot, at least for me and directors I know.
@ellardent @Directors_UK But really I think and I thank you guys for the discussion, because we might be doing something better, improve.
@ellardent @Directors_UK My first reaction to the ? is an example: it’s on my mind. I don’t worry about the shoots as much, in the flow.
@ellardent @Directors_UK Another guess to the original ? is directors are worried by other things, and tend to talk about those instead.
@ellardent @Directors_UK I don’t say “because it’s a long shot, we’re going to keep tension up by doing X, a variant of Y” — no time!
@ellardent @Directors_UK I don’t articulate to crew the same way I would on Twitter. On set, we use shorthands “faster, slower, turn it…”
@ellardent @Directors_UK Time warping and emotions manipulation is what I do and can explain as a director, but no one asked me how I do it.
@ellardent @Directors_UK That’d require a director to shift into teaching mode. I don’t articulate tension control to others, I just do it.
@ellardent — Known examples from your own or others’ scripts?
@ellardent—My Twitter audience is different from each of my films’ audience. Example: Kvadrat audience has interest in music, not filmmaking
@ellardent @Directors_UK “Break the 180° rule once the space established” without a shot reads banal and unsubstantiated to me. Am I wrong?
@ellardent @Directors_UK I’d guess that for directors, DPs and editors, it’s visual. I need to SHOW stuff. Reference to a shot. Maybe link?
@ellardent @Directors_UK Well, most anything can be written off to procrastination :)
@ellardent @Directors_UK 2)within tweet constrains, we need to either reference already known scenes (reserved for the famous) or generalize
@ellardent @Directors_UK My guesses: 1) as directors, we don’t know you’re interested, most questions we’re asked are about the story
@ellardent @Directors_UK Haven’t thought of tweeting how I solved scene or editing problems though. Back to your original “why”? Interesting
@ellardent — Ha! Dead on. Inversely, directors’ work often reveals more about the person than when you meet in real life. Scary fascinating.
@jamesmoran @ellardent — Yeah, this is weird. And often combined with “Directed by” shortly afterwards. Film is a team sport :D.
@ellardent @Directors_UK Have you read #Tarkosky’s diaries “Martyrolog”? It’s like an Excel spreadsheet of his debts till dead. Not fun.
@ellardent @Directors_UK Art is supposed to be the other way round: Idea > Film …The rest is for the producers :D. In reality, context rules
@ellardent @Directors_UK The unglamorous reality of direction: we have to work backwards. Sales > Likes > Views > Marketing > #Film > Idea.
@ellardent @Directors_UK Thanks! Well, the hardest is to create original films despite the economics favoring conformity / predictability.
@ellardent @Directors_UK I’m a director. When I tweet about the reality of direction, it’s not what people expect, that’s my impression.
@Directors_UK @ellardent I guess because few want to hear about the hard stuff. Dicussions of gear or completed #film are easier to read.
@WTSFilmMag — Thanks! “You’ve Got Mail (1998)” :D
@WTSFilmMag—Sure, how about KvadratMovie.com ? As indie as it gets. Continuing best Russian experimental cinema traditions. Спасибо :)
@LA_LiftOffFest—If the goal is to appeal to the audience, yes. But artistically it’s like inquiring which color sells best for a painting ;)
@indiewire @KentuckerAudley—Totally! Also include mini-budget tax breaks, easier world distribution & eager audiences tired of blockbusters.
@liamboluk — Seems to not work on a Mac version of Excel. But, there’s a similar “lovely feature” in BBedit, end of doc instead of line ;).

Weird #dream. Met #Tarkovsky in a smallish 20 sq m #cafe. Talked about #cinema, naturally. He was already a bit drunk & annoyed. Rainy day.

@goodinaroom — Imagine if we could merge and open up this data and let it be updatable and thus current? Globally? Everyone would benefit.
@goodinaroom Your studio exec would get only contained thriller scripts. And I wouldn’t get comics-based scripts ;). Today it’s guesswork.
@goodinaroom If every film pro had tags like “brainy”, “experimental”, “comics” and budget type, an algorithm could match. Like dating sites
@goodinaroom Projects assemble on “I know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy” basis, artificially constrained to your network.
@goodinaroom People suffer mismatch, as in your post. IMDb isn’t a resource for current affinity search. Past work leads to typecasting.
@goodinaroom The process of connecting people. Some have ideas, some have money, some have skills. All complain they can’t find each other.
@goodinaroom Why doesn’t the cinema industry embrace IT to connect and reduce reliance on direct contacts? Stunning for me as a newcomer.
@goodinaroom Good! How about a similar post for studio execs suggesting to state what they look for? Better than sitting through all pitches

@juliecornewell Agree. However, my point remains with others, not the sufferer (as you imply). Pretense is fallible to an actute observer.

Add to my @HurlbutVisuals #camera choice tweet: budget included cars, race track rent, 8 drivers, 3 Russian arms, #film crew of 12 (5 days)
@hurlbutvisuals — Oh! That explains much of the budget! Thank you. My tweet lacked context. Mind if I tweet this data to add perspective?
@hurlbutvisuals — I’m fascinated by cost compared to my indie feature. Was it because of film? Renting instead of borrowing via CPN? People?
@hurlbutvisuals — I totally agree and appreciate your efforts and sharing! And even your blog posts took quite some time to write, I know.

A detailed article by @DigitalMediamag about our Kvadrat #film, especially the post-production #gear and processes: digitalmedia-world.com/Features/the-d…
@JordanMencel, your feedback is much more important than you might think, thank you! If you’d like, you can share it imdb.com/title/tt326649…
@JordanMencel Thanks mate! I wanted to create a multi-layered #film. If it works, you’re discovering new details, symbols & ideas each time.
The priority for most is to survive, reproduce & die. Minimal effort, maximum comfort. Occasionally wondering what’s the purpose of doing so
A good read if you’re into collaborative #film editing with #FCP X: 10dot1.co.uk/guides (via @Alex4D)
@Alex4D yeah, I remember your very useful post blog.alex4d.com/2011/07/18/sec… . I hope (and can’t wait!) too. #SQLite is built for concurrency!
@Alex4D thanks for the link! Read through. Still no way to use the same SQL DB by several users simultaneously. Copy / paste only, right?

@RazorReef — Are you guys alive? I’ve placed an order 10 days ago, emailed you, called you — no response! And order still “processing”.
@PhilipBloom yes, FCP X does have spell-checking. They use Mac OS system-wide checker that works for most languages (a hook to Cocoa API).
KvadratMovie.com is now on @Instagram! Follow me there for the most exquisite frames from the #film: instagram.com/kvadratmovie
Bummer. 19:02. @DHLexpressUK still says “With delivery courier”. A glorious sunny 15K #run wasted… waiting. #Paris by night again.
Left: my rig to #film kvadratmovie.com Right: our rig if @CanonProNetwork C300 appeared earlier & we had more € flic.kr/p/kHNSNX
@PhilipBloom — Worrisome! @CanonProNetwork officially states C300 has “splash-resistant body.” Could you quote the repair team diagnosis?
@PhilipBloom — Wow! Are you a member of the @CanonProNetwork? Have you drowned the C300 or is it just sprinkle-ingress?
Really nice sound of going in and out of water at the end of #GravityMovie. Excellent FX and #acting. So-so #film otherwise. Awful music.
@redrockmicro @NASAGoddard — I really envy that weightless feeling of gear just floating in the air all by itself!
Having #kids is a weak argument for dropping the ball artistically & professionally. Kids would prefer parents they admire past their teens.
Any recommendations of the largest choice of quality stylish #business suits online — for women — please? Price irrelevant.
Try all lenses before shooting a #film! Great example of Cooke Mini S4 vs @SchneiderOptics Xenar3 by @J65Productions: youtube.com/watch?v=vvQVNY…
@shyp —Oh! Double-cool then! Please ping me when you deploy in Switzerland or France (probably the toughest; look at what happened to @Uber)
Wow, @Shyp is a really cool way to eliminate shipment hassles: shyp.com . Wish they worked with @UPS and in Europe.
@Sachtler Danke! I’ve just finished a feature KvadratMovie.com . Now preproducing 2 fiction and 1 documentary features. In parallel :)
@Sachtler I just realized your FSB8 is central to my life: flic.kr/p/k9yFAp — a pile of #gear I’ve been living through up to today.
#Hollywood blockbusters and @Microsoft products are proof that sometimes, for some people, even tons of #money do not help.
Deep #house track of the day: youtube.com/watch?v=mCoFMT…
@demokratiedoc Thanks so much! Yes, that’s it, exactly! Sorry for not publishing more gear reviews because of film work — I plan to restart.
Isn’t it amazing that most #human perception — visual, auditory — is non-linear? Ever wondered why?
Was going through my #gear preparing for a shoot when realized a photo of the pile sums up my #life up to this point: flic.kr/p/k9yFAp

@faebser Thanks & sorry! We’re tiny, just me & @AndreyPushkarev. Haven’t set up sales yet. We’ll announce at facebook.com/kvadratmovie ASAP.
Seen on subway: a #teen simultaneously watching a #movie on his #iPad and a news broadcast projected between platforms. My future audience?
@CanonProNetwork Love this light lens, despite distortions at wide angle. The main glass used to shoot kvadratmovie.com feature #film.
@redrockmicro @DSLRinformer Thanks! Will definitely try it out at the next available gear moment.
Q: What’s your #goal in life? — A: Well, I want to look great on @Instagram, and, you know, enjoy #life.
My revelation: #art was invented by pre-agricultural #humans as a way to do something with all the spare time. #Life was easy back then.
Clever: @Actavis carbocisteine #cough syrup prepackaged in 750 mg packets. No spoon needed. No dosage errors. Clean, light and tidy.
@redrockmicro & @DSLRinformer — Intriguing! But how precise is the #Fingerwheel controller on a #Steadicam set-up in reality?
I wish we had these @RodeMics invisiLavs ( https://t.co/dIeEg3HCkI ) for vimeo.com/75739779 ! Looks awesome for my next #cinema prod.
@LA_LiftOff I mainly meant unlike other media #cinema feedback is too noisy to be that useful to a director. Tarkovsky got terrible feedback
@LA_LiftOff “without audience there’s no art”—In my opinion the difference between #art and #entertainment is absence of audience imperative
@LA_LiftOff Everyone is a #film critic. Too much feedback becomes too much of a good thing. Curate feedback for higher signal to noise ratio
No bullshit interview of Hiroshi Kawahara @FujiFilmUS about X-series #photography cameras design approach & future: youtube.com/watch?v=_gGsoB…
#Cinema is the only #art where you can say “My #film sucks because we had a tiny budget, if only I had more…” Can’t say so for a #painting.
“#Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.” — Helen Keller
@LA_LiftOff I rather think #art is outside of the #artist. We’re sophisticated filters / transmitters but our works have a life of their own
@Zacuto the other crucial piece was Z-Mount Zwivel to connect @ChroszielUSA DV Balancer. Unique parallel rotatable 2-rod clamp. Tiny mighty.
@LA_LiftOff @Rodriguez yeah! Although we don’t share tastes with Robert ;). And I’m now assembling a (compact) crew for my next features.
@LA_LiftOff Ideally yes but in our era of over-specialization it remains a dream. In my #film I direct, DP, record sound, edit, roto & grade
@LA_LiftOff totally agree. And whatever the language, it’s always better to be specific. Or draw a picture. Or show by doing / acting.
@Anton_Bauer hope you enjoy it because it’s planned to be a Russian bardak ;). Infrastructure still unfinished. But HCX work great in Russia
@Zacuto thank _you_ for making the gear! Regarding my feature #film, you can watch a free full-length 720p version: kvadratmovie.com
@CanonProNetwork you’re welcome! One of the reasons I’m a CPN member. I think Canon can do better cine lenses: EF size, IS and weatherproof.
Dear people, please stop telling me I should #eat more. Instead, buy or cook me a meal :D. I like Chinese and Thai. Or just bananas. Thanks!
@CanonProNetwork thanks for info! I’m a filmmaker I tone in post-prod. Would prefer EF/PL consistency. Please follow so I can answer your DM
@CanonProNetwork agree on the quality, still miss the IS (no, the f/4 is not the same :-). And would love a cine-variant in same size.
@Zacuto yep, the Z-Finder Pro was in heavy use on kvadratmovie.com in tight spaces like airplanes and trains:
“A man who procrastinates in his choosing will inevitably have his choice made for him by circumstance.” — Hunter S. Thompson
Unfuckingbelievable. Tripped and fell during my nightly 15K #run through historical #Paris. On non-technical asphalt. “Wake up! Time to die”
#SpotTheRock: Don’t be afraid to spend on @RedrockMicro to saw, drill & glue it like I did for kvadratmovie.com/about/
@redrockmicro assemble a fast & nimble team of crazy #film perfectionists unafraid to hack @redrockmicro gear to shoot my next 3 features :D
@FirstGlanceFilm Exactly! — I did just finish kvadratmovie.com a REAL feature #indiefilm, but labeling it “my favorite” is #unethical
@FirstGlanceFilm none, but your “real #indiefilm” term made me smile :-) — “as we both know, appearances can be deceiving”
Water-related #fail day. Washing machine ran through 80% of my clothes almost without #water. WC flush tank valve lost water tightness. Ugh!

Beware of the “being in the present” obsession. The human #brain evolved to model the past and #future. Don’t deny it. Embrace all 3 tenses.

@FreeDPT EF-S 17-55 mm is very good, sharper than EF 24-70 L: anatolyivanov.com/photography/en… It’s the camera system that doesn’t quite work for me.

Anyone knows how to move simultaneously all 3 RGB sliders in #Mac OS 10.8 color picker, please? Modifier keys don’t seem to work.
If safety was a priority, the #ATC would be texting directly to the FMS, FCU and #EFIS… instead of mumbling! Which could be used as backup.

@icebreakernz Thanks, but I don’t see how you could help? Change the cut – a radical solution? We might discuss it in Friedrichshafen.
Really disappointed by the fit of @IceBreakerNZ Tech T Lite in merino #wool. The sleeves are too short and the waist is too long. Unusable.

Cool! Folding #Bike Friday Tikit available this spring with Gates carbon belt drive and #Shimano Alfine 11 or Nexus 8.
@AdrienneM1971 I’d disagree. The slow carb #diet is only a part of the #4hb, and for a French, Tim’s approach to food is hair-raising ;-).
Finished 4-Hour Body #4hb by @TFerriss. A rather disappointing mix of tricks. Uneven depth. Emphasis on #work & calculus over fun & #play.
What are my social #obligations?
Signs of #professionalism in #art and #design: 5) sharing best practices, #processes and #pricing with competition to improve the industry.

Signs of #professionalism in #art and #design: 4) constant extraction and reuse of client’s knowledge of their industry for project #success
As a #photographer, I wonder why so many women pluck their #eyebrows incorrectly? Lack of #drawing skills? Undeveloped sense of #aesthetics?
If you’re a #creative looking for #work / #health / socializing balance, remember that equilibrium seldom leads to change and #creativity.
Signs of #professionalism in #art and #design: 3) a habit to quickly admit and apologize for mistakes, errors, delays and misunderstandings
I’m surprised and saddened by #Yahoo decision to kill #Delicious. Fortunately, I’ve chosen offline instead of cloud storage a long time ago.

Can good taste in #art, #design or #music be learnt without #talent and innate sensitivity?
The human #mind struggles to understand and accept extremes: the #infinity of cosmos or the #finity of life.
As an #artist, be an optimist (some will like your #art), a pessimist (some will hate it), and a realist (some will ignore it).
Signs of #professionalism in #art and #design: 1) ability to create on demand, regardless of your mood or #inspiration status.
If you’re everywhere, you’re nowhere!
#Life should be long and complex. #Death should be quick and easy.
Unvisualisable. Such a terrible word for a visual #artist!
Why focus on 3 speed internal gear hubs’ mechanical efficiency and leave out cadence efficiency? A #bike is to move faster with less effort.
I’m puzzled by the simplicity of dreams in the #Inception movie. In my standard #dreams I survive shots, go through walls and fly around…
Sadly, the next generation of #Apple notebooks limits storage, lacks Firewire, forgets RJ45, looses keyboard backlight and requires a loupe.
@LMGM The fear of trees falling under heavy wind. The scary upper sections bending towards the windows. 7-floor trees. Now on the floor.

@naturalfeet Ah, sarcarsm ;-) You may wish to put it in quotes the next time. Otherwise, really bad podiatrists, scary more than crazy, IMO.
@naturalfeet Agree on brainwashing. Why do you say evolution made a mistake with Western feet? Homo sapiens haven’t evolved since 50 kya.
