Thursday, July 10th, 2008I recently was lucky enough to head along to the Australian Ballet Companies latest season, Ballet Imperial, at the State Theatre. The night was fantastic - I am growing an appreciation for some of the finer arts going about, especially from a performers point of view. The ballerinas performing for us that night we the […]
The Experimedia Experience: wifi, desk, ambiance
Friday, April 4th, 2008This is just a quick post I thought I would share before venturing off on a day of coffees and other meetings. I have been chilling out in the State Library today, crunching some work and the like. It has free wifi, cheap lockers to store stuff in, a free (large) desk and an ambiance […]
Time is money, life, mindfullness and such…
Monday, March 10th, 2008I came across this NT Times article link, as posted by Stoye Bowd originally here. It links very closely with the idea of Mindfulness which I have been learning about now for the past 3-4 months. It’s an ongoing process, and also links well with what Col recently said at the Ergo blog. Many links, […]
Microsoft vs Google on my laptop
Friday, February 8th, 2008I just downladed Skype as my laptop hasn’t had it on since it was wipped. In doing so, I was asked if I wanted (read, forced to) upload the Google toolbar to my Internet Explorer. Well, for those of you familar with the Vista opperating system…and the famous Allow, Allow, Allow Microsoft vs Mac ads, […]
George, you ol’ devil
Friday, December 21st, 2007This ones doing the rounds at the moment. I found it hillarious. Surely, the big man himself would not have approved…or would he? The mans got game, let’s be honest.
Bla bla bla…Knowledge Economy
Monday, October 29th, 2007Stumbled into this one today when searching for innovation unit’s at big companies. I reckon most would be disappointed. Just try the Google search “insert big company name Innovation Unit” and view the disappointment for yourself. Is there someone out there actually IN an innovation unit, can you please say hi - I’d love to […]
What I’m Reading: Biomimcry - innovation inspired by nature
Wednesday, October 17th, 2007Thought I’d use this space to chat briefly about what I am reading at the moment. A book called Biomimicry…
The book is excellent so far (I’m about half way through) and provides some really interesting insights into how we could take a better cue from nature about they way we go about things. What is […]
Divorcing the Commonwealth Bank…finally
Monday, October 15th, 2007I have recently come to a sad conclusion. Youth today are engaging in less and less relationships, too scared to commit to any one person/organisation/brand. I however, have a top 5 relationship list that scares me a little. As follows…
1) Family (Mum and Dad, they have been their from the start…duh)
2) My sister (2 years […]
A stranger, from the outside!!! Pixar and the Brand Me world…
Monday, September 24th, 2007Yes, continuing on from yesterdays post, I thought it would be worth talking about the Pixar a little more.
From the Mavericks at Work book I wrote about before, there was quite a good section which looked at some of the inner workings of the film company (valued at somewhere between 7-10 billion USD!).
“It’s fine to […]
Craig Hassed, Monash Science dude
Monday, September 17th, 2007So, following on from the last post, the name of the Monash Scientist I referred to is Craig Hassed. His book is titled ‘Know Thyself, and is a mix of real science and research mixed with psychology. Haven’t read it yet, but will log the pearls as I come by them. http://www.michelleandersonpublishing.com/inspiration.html to buy it…scroll […]
