Paula Ceballos is a professor at ITP, and a coworker at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deeplocal.com\/\">Deeplocal<\/a>, where she&#8217;s inspired a few of us to follow along in the process.

I have a moth-like attraction to anything with blinking lights, and there\u2019s just so many ways to accomplish this seemingly simple task; from relays,&nbsp; vacuum tubes, RC circuits, or 555s, up to microcontrollers programmed in assembler, basic or C.&nbsp;&nbsp; It seems like a good way to exercise some existing skills, bolster some that have long been forgotten, and learn some new ones.  Most importantly though, it&#8217;s just about having enough dedication and focus to chip away at some craft every day.  The dead of winter seems as good a time as any to start an endeavor like this.  The only snag is an eminent move, but I&#8217;m going to try my best to keep at this, even if some days are just blog entries with ideas, research, or learnings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This blog is intended to chronicle my first attempt at a daily routine of experimentation &amp; iteration across a few technology domains.
