@sailingfanblues you are only accepting 140 character texts for that page? Sep 17

@sailingfanblues @rhizome thanks for the link but isn't the point of soliciting a #Review to have reviews, as opposed to more links Sep 17

new bandcamp release, "critical weekend work": http://tommoody.bandcamp.com/album/critical-weekend-work … Jul 1

if bewersdorf re-surfaced as a devout christian you'd never hear about it but his "eastern" religious art is considered profound Jul 1

also, as long as we're going, who else is uneasy about "spiritual new media" - will there be classes in that? Jul 1

rick silva deleted multiple websites and personas over the years; kevin bewersdorf does it once and gets a rhizome article Jul 1

online presence is addictive, yadda yadda, but taking your work offline is not a revolutionary act deserving of coverage, was my point Jul 1

"i fear climate change but global warming just sounds so... extreme," said the nervous journalist, as another piece of Antarctica fell off Jul 1

to the faithful, kevin bewersdorf's web disappearance wasn't apathy but some kind of tragic withdrawal that rises to the level of insight Jun 30

the cult of kevin bewersdorf demands that his inactivity and apathy be seen as genius Jun 30

let's add (via @cosmicsands) that twitter's gif to mp4 encoder ignores the GIF's frame rate - imagine if this were movies Jun 18

"riker insane face" notwithstanding, am all for trying to improve GIFs, make file sizes smaller, etc, if anyone could actually do it Jun 18

coincidentally was experimenting yesterday with vine-to-mp4 conversions http://www.digitalmediatree.com/tommoody/general/?61856 http://www.digitalmediatree.com/tommoody/general/?61854 Jun 18

twitter resizes the GIFs it converts to mp4 for uniform display in twitter but if you save the mp4 it's the same size as the GIF Jun 18

i think we could safely say twitter's GIF-to-mp4 isn't there yet but you gotta love 'em for trying to make twitterized GIFs Jun 18

saved the mp4 from the previous tweet - it animates in Firefox but doesn't loop & displays as a single frame in stand-alone VLC Jun 18

new twitter profile's prioritization of tweets by font size based on favs/retweets is ugly and presumptuous Apr 24

dear twitter: i do not choose to use the new profile / twitter: ha ha ha ha ha ha Apr 23

steadily deleting tweets with links to youtubes - i didn't sign on for some twitter exec's convergence fantasy Apr 22

if your profile had a precise count of tweets you've faved and photos/videos you've linked to it would be so much better Apr 22

here we go again, twitter pretends that the change to a new format is optional before making it permanent Apr 22
