The collected letters of sundays dreaming (idea)

Days and nights come together in a slow falling down

I can feel it coming back slowly, sneaking in again. It's sleepytime waking and hungry to wander, resting all done. Ready for more. It won't be the same this time, never can be how it was and when, because of so much gone past. Ya, it helps a little, the dirty hitchhikers grinning and telling big fat lies about right now and where to, all the while glancing over their shoulder like sneaky devils. 'Course you didn stoled that spare bike and extra suitcase, gonna right now help you transport your stolen goods a little extra further, i don't care.

build and destroy

It is like : let's tear down build up smashing a new world. Make everything new again out of itself, create by changing shape and obliterating. Other times there is just smash and crush to pieces and it feels good so as long as new things get created and shared in equal measure.…

In-System Serial Programming FPGAs (idea)

2005-03-27T12:35:33Z

And you are like, no it will never happen! But here it is!
NOW WE GIVE MUCH LUFF TO TEH XILINX SPARTAN TOO. YEAH MONEY!

Whoa-ho!

You are most happy to get frisky with the embedded programming technical nodes! Do not deny they are TEH HOTTTNESS!@#!! Right now you are drooling recklessly all over yourself in anticipation, I will not keep you away any longer!

A short introduction (we love acronyms!) :
FPGA stands for Field Programmable Gate Array, this a microchip which is capable of performing digital logic operations. FPGAs have an internal computing architecture which may be altered by re-programming, this makes them very versatile devices capable of quickly solving specific problems. They resemble CPLDs (Custom Programmable Logic Devices) in that they may interface with on-chip I/O and perform aggregate logic operations which are often used for signal / data processing.…

When again between cities was comfortable and right (idea)

From my nook I kept a half awake eye on Panic, Fear and all the other vicious, late-night goodness that lurks around on the streets while you sleep.

. . .

Suburban idleness and extravagant waste. Complete home furnishings duplicated hundreds of millions of times : each family must have one, or ideally two or more of every item. This is required to keep things going. Sometimes the immense weight of the world sneaks up real quiet and smashes all that careful order in my head into pieces. I am staring into a livingroom of daydreams and setbacks.

The suburban kids are bored, restless for something to do which does not arrive prepackaged and shrink wrapped in easy to pay-per-view installments. Corporate commerce has these suburbs on lockdown. They are a kingdom of corporate manufacture custom tailored for ease of exploitation. The genius of the design…

Tired, Hungry and Full of Life (idea)

We cram Jeremy's life into the trunk of my car and begin with a drive to Seattle. The drive away office, after verbal abuse and then reprieve, yields a car and the offer of beer from the mini-fridge (a trick. we don't fall for it, duh).

. . .

Helena in the middle of the night may as well be any other sleepy small town. Empty streets under vigilant streetlights and the occasional cop prowling for something juicy. Hop a fence to sleep inside a baseball stadium, wake up to sprinklers in your face. I don't ever seem to learn from some mistakes. Falling asleep to the sounds of restless, bored, small town kids in the adjacent park, making out and fighting their way through the idle hours of the night. They invent drama to fill a listless void, they will do what they can to make a life out of this town.

Take us from home and feed us adventure, we are hungry.

Worlds crumble at my feet (idea)

The aircraft passenger window has triple paned plexiglass with a small hole drilled in the center pane to balance the pressure. There is moisture trapped inside the windows and small ice crystals have formed inside on the outermost pane- they resemble tiny unborn snowflakes caught in time. The crystals are clustered around the small hole in the center pane with a few scattered further out. Behind them, down below, is an endless sea of clouds. Somewhere down there people are just waking up to a new day.

Non-stop cities for two weeks now, kind of nice since there is always something new to take in at every turn. Tiring, trying to eat well, and adjust to constantly changing sleep schedules. In Japan it is hard, or maybe impossible for me to tell where one city ends and another begins, even the small cities are endlessly…

Merry-Go-Round (thing)

2002-07-19T01:02:12Z

M is for merry-go-round.

Merry go round time fell down, you aren't where you used to be.

In that neighborhood I went to fourth grade at a new school, I made new friends and let go of old ones that were far away. I learned to ride wheelies on my bike by falling on my ass a hundred times. Built tunnels and sand castles in the volleyball court, moats and pits for people to trip in and swear about. I played soccer with my dad, the time he kicked the ball and it hit me smack in the face so hard I tipped over stung bright red and maybe crying. We spent afternoons climbing the stumpy trees and peeing behind the bushes instead of using the restrooms with their gritty sand on floor and unflushed toilets.

Last night we went looking for the merry-go-round at Chintimini Park and it was gone. All the rusty old playground equipment with sharp metal edges and splintery wood was replaced with bland plastic structures planted in a matt of sawdust. Impossible to hurt…
