Hitting the Road

I'm making my way up to Vancouver, BC for a fashion blogger meetup!

I leave this morning, taking I-5 all the way up.

Instagram is the best way to catch my antics during the trip.

Road Gear Sketch: iPad and Waterlogue

As described previously, I used the Waterlogue App to create artwork for the On the Edge: US show held last year.

I had to go through a very convoluted process to get the images onto the iPad for processing (more on that later) and it was well worth it.

Watching Waterlogue "paint" is hypnotic. Here's a sample for your viewing pleasure:

On March 14, I went to Plan B and ordered a Brinno Time Lapse Camera (more on that next week later).

During my trip, I made further attempts at utilizing the Narrative.
Here I am wearing it in New Orleans:

Here are the sorts of captures it took:

I wore it on the left temple of my sunglasses while driving:
