I’m a fan of art. Banksy/graffiti, abstract, and sketching (urban, and other). I guess those are the types of art that excite me the most.

I’ve dabbled occasionally, and will post some previous drawings later. It’s not something I expect to be great at, but I’m going to do it anyway.

I bought this sketchbook a while ago, but never used it. I found an ounce of motivation a few days ago, and started this. A simple idea, hardly original, but fun. Quite meditative.

The rules:

1. Draw the lines as close together as you can, without them touching.
2. If there is an imperfection, follow it. Maybe exagerate it.
3. If there hasn’t been an imperfection in a while, create one.

I’m happy with the result. I think it looks organic, and it has movement.

I was setting up a redirect at work, and looking at response codes. I found there were two different codes for “permanent redirect”, and so I went looking for the difference.

Subtle, but one allows for clients to change from POST to GET method. One does not. Mine would always be get anyway, so it makes little difference. I went with 308.

This blogpost has a nice flowchart for choosing the most appropriate response code.

This New York Times article about David Bowie’s archive is great. I hope the show comes to Sydney.
