This is the entire collection of photos & videos from our exploration of the “Emerald Island” –as part of the Interaction 12 experience. Those of you who have never been to this beautiful country and/or don’t know what IxDA‘s Interaction conference is: I’ll let the images speak for themselves….

Running 26.2 miles: a challenge like few others? Total insanity? A life-changing experience? I would say running a marathon accounts for all of these. I am very proud to say I’ve recently finished my very first marathon: the LIVESTRONG Austin Marathon 2012. So… why? I wouldn’t consider myself a “runner”. I’ve only started running regularly [...]

Another year. Another Interaction conference. This time, the clan of UX/IxD/IA enthusiasts converged in the beautiful city of Dublin. Not only I don’t need an excuse to go to the *one* conference I won’t miss for anything –but once you add traveling to one of the coolest cities in Europe… it can hardly get any [...]

…and I am finally finished with all the material that came out of this trip that took place during the summer of 2011. Along with the collection of India photos (and videos), this is the last set of material resulting from the explorations that took place in these exciting regions of the world. Here they are: [...]

After extensive sessions of selecting, editing, Aperturing, Photoshoping and Watermarking, here is the entire collection of Flickr sets from my India trip during the summer of 2011. Nepal is soon to follow. Enjoy. More slides shows, after the break…

I had the fortune to catch Rachael Yamagata live in concert for the second time in Austin. The first time I had the chance to see (and meet) her was when she played in Indianapolis, roughly 2 years ago. She is a truly brilliant singer/songwriter. Her songs have a way of simply getting deep inside [...]

I recently found myself in a very interesting, weird, artsy middle-of-nowhere town in Texas town called Marfa. The first thought that comes to mind when I think of Marfa is: The motto of “Keep Austin Weird” somehow feels extremely overrated. Marfa can feel like a ghost town at various points during the day, but it [...]

“El Grito” This is how independence day is celebrated in Mexico. People gather at 23h00 on Thursday and hear the president shout “Viva México” on television (if you are not in Mexico City) and everyone else shouts “Viva!“. I took this chance to go visit a friend who lives in Guadalajara because Friday (16th September) [...]

I live in Austin –and Austin City Limits is one of the coolest music festivals of the year in the US. But I’ve decided to leave town [country] instead, avoid the music fest insanity and go to Mexico –Guadalajara to be exact. (after all, I did go to Lollapalooza this year…) It so happens that [...]
