The images I have FFFFOUND!  I still have 1 invitation to ffffound left to give - so if you want it, send me a note.

I just checked my awstats and realized I’m still getting quite a lot of visitors over here at Fromform - sorry about that - have kind of forgotten about the site. But if you’re visiting and want to look at some images, go check out my students’ work over at the new unit site. Am no longer teaching Inter 3 (although the site is still up at www.aainter3.net) and am now teaching Diploma 9.

The new blog is up at www.aadip9.net

Just found these great toys by browsing William Chen’s super-diverse link on his blog.

Toypography, by Dainippon Type Organization (first seen at DesignTide 2006) is a toy of typography. Fragments of letters, that can be put together to either English or Japanese letters and characters. The thing about Toypography is, that Japanese expressions can be transformed into English expressions of the same meaning.

I think stella might need these.

Ok, I FINALLY get why del.icio.us is so good.  Took a while, but spending a week recuperating from a back injury allows for more webtime that is probably healthy!  I apologize to everyone rolling your eyes at me for coming to this belated realization.  del.icio.us rocks.

PJ’s Glass House will be open to the public this spring!

Just got the new Belkin Skype phone for free calls.  Am looking forward to using it to call home when I go to LA with the students.  Still can’t quite get my head around free international phone calls from a handheld phone.  BT must be trembling.
