let's hear it for Bob LaBlog

For those that are so inclined, I've started an experience design blog to catalog articles and publish work related to the master of science degree I'm pursuing at the University of Oregon. It's an interdisciplinary degree focused on information design, business, and applied research. My personal focus is on user experiences and information technology in arts environments.

Also, be sure to subscribe to Craig's art blog - he has photographed a new body of work and will publish it online soon.

As if that's not enough blogging, check out the new Harrison obsession - a family fashion blog. You know you want to.

remembering Ryan

My dear friend Ryan Mouritsen died on Friday after a tragic plane crash. I miss him; the world is suddenly so much less. He was ambitious, funny, caring, and my best friend during an intense time in my life.

I love you, Ryan. Your inquisitiveness, intelligence, drive and humor will inspire me always. I'll see you at the big Arby's in the sky. Peace.

If you knew Ryan, you can share your memories at his family's tribute blog.

from us to you

happy birthday Tracy!

Tracy's fashion sense has always been impeccable

Tracy is my second sister and the fourth of the twelve kids in our family. She is the first sister I can remember holding and taking care of when she was a baby. When she was little, she was very girly; she refused to wear pants for a few years and would only wear dresses! She still loves fashion and has an enviable personal style. Tracy is the only person I know of besides me who blogs about cleaning. She loves music and married a sax player; now he's an MD and she's in law school. I call them the Huxtables, but no one else seems to think it's funny. They are both excellent cooks and love to make difficult recipes. They used to live in Portland and they say they are coming back some day. We miss them!

Happy birthday, sis, we love you.
