JOURNALS
Ah, another day, another chance to fall down the rabbit hole of creative coding and not emerge until the sun sets. Today was quite the expedition into the land of code. I kicked off the morning with a quest to fine-tune the art of digital handwriting - a curious blend of nostalgia and new-age tech, and so I dove into the intricacies of letter spacing in my own handwriting.
You see, there was this moment of contemplation on kerning between specific letters, but the allure of simplicity won me over. So, I decided to leave the particular kerning to the realms of 'what if' and focused on mastering fixed font size and line height instead. It's not every day you find joy in such minute details, but then again, my studio isn't your everyday art space.
The hunger pangs eventually called me to lunch, a welcome break and a chance to forage for food and fetch a power cable. My laptop's appetite for power seems insatiable compared to my own. Post-lunch, it was back to the coding trenches - a determination in my steps and a clear goal in my sights.
And would you believe it? I cracked it! The fixed font size and line height danced to my tune, a small victory in the grand scheme but a victory nonetheless. It’s a bit like untangling headphones; frustrating while you're in the thick of it, but oh-so-satisfying once done.
By late afternoon, documentation was the word of the hour - a less thrilling adventure but crucial for future me who inevitably forgets the genius of past me's solutions.
Reflecting on today, the focus on a single task was surprisingly refreshing. Usually, my days are split into two or three creative endeavours, but there’s something to be said for the zen of mono-tasking. Despite an ungodly early start with a headache as a less-than-pleasant companion, the day turned out quite nicely, with the headache bowing out by mid-morning.
You know, there’s a certain charm to winding down with social media, a gentle transition from the world of code to the chaos of human interaction. Much like plotting art, it’s all about the lines we draw, whether they’re in code, on paper, or in the digital ether of our online lives.
