Trying this out to see if it's a good alternative for creatives.
“Boston has lost at least 100,000 square feet of art space in the last decade

only 1% of new development approved in the last 10 years was for the arts.”

BTW, I know the first opening image of those people looking at my art installation is proportionally strange and their expressions are not the happiest, but that's exactly why I like it. It's odd. I don't want it to be perfect.

So I narrowed it down to spatial social and experiential design, which still probably confuses people 😂, because it’s not a category on the IRS list of professions.

It was also really hard to decide what my selling point is since I've done so many different things from art installations to graphic design to architecture projects, both at small and at extremely large scales.)

This latest one was actually really hard to make it work for the extremes of phones and desktop and it was tricky the way I did it (not the conventional way of adjusting... because, OCD combined w/programming by hand).

Any suggestions? #OpenStreetMap lnkd.in/gjCKw3zu is really great on desktop with the insane amount of details and combinations. I've used it for work, as well as this great site which I think uses their data: lnkd.in/gMDSea9Q

I know about #Moovit for transit, just haven't needed it yet.

These aren't the best photos. But they're today's photos that I can now easier w/Flickr than IG send as updates to family+. I've taken like 1,000 pictures of this snowy landscape over the last few months. It's different everyday. Nature!!!

Yes, no laws – as I have learned in NH w/the city of Nashua (blog still yet to be written robypark.substack.com) tip in favor of the bigger power, be that private or government.

So I started this blog, but I haven't had time to write anything on there, which will document all the things they've done wrong and/or undemocratic. And I will use this research in a post!

Thanks! This is great with the research. Last May, I wrote a letter of no support to the city of Nashua about putting a disc golf course in the small forest nearby, which will destroy the wetland there, and told them about this bathing concept! (I didn't hear anything back. 😢)
