Teaching anthropology in San Diego. Also proud of my VR projects e.g., www.anvropomotron.com and www.paleoca.com.
Thanks AT&T. I wonder what Spectrum is like.

I have a new camera and I now have birder cred. Someone next to me in an aviary with a huge camera pointed at a bird whispered to me “that’s a roasted sapphire” and I’m like “… magnificent.”

Not a good start to the work session! I replugged in the GPU power cable and it seems fine now.

This Apple Intelligence summary is kind of fun? Only the subject line refers to Halloween

On Thursday at #AABA2024 I will be one of the exhibitors at the Art, Culture, and Science Engagement Exhibition. I'll guide you through a virtual reality anthropology museum!

I spent weeks modeling California oatgrass. It was hard actually. Here are some results (from l to r): crude cardboard cutout. Small, medium and large detailed close-up models. Cardboard cutouts using the large plant model as textures.

My other big WebXR project is PaleoCalifornia (paleoca.com), which is an educational theme park ride. It is 1/4 done but also is a complete experience. A new mode (self-guided tour) should be done before next semester. The second fourth of the ride will be around summer.

One of my WebXR projects is AnVRopomotron, a virtual biological anthropology and archaeology museum. See scale models of modern primates, hominins, and artifacts! www.anvropomotron.com
