What a mouthful for a program name! Digital Transformation and Innovation (MDTI) with a Concentration in User experience design at uOttawa. It’s been a pretty good conversation starter when people ask you about your degree. They kind of understand innovation, but it’s sandwiched with two concepts that might pique curiosity. This post is under construction […]
Overall Experience Overall, I am very impressed and satisfied with my experience with the product. It is my first bone-conduction headset. I acquired this for the purpose of listening to audio content wirelessly while running on road and trails. The open-ear capability has completely transformed my running experience in a positive way.

“scholars are implicated in an intellectual quest that is not far from paranoia—a word that is not meant as a pejorative” — Tung-Hui Hu, A Prehistory of the Cloud (p.35) Not accepting myths and words as truth, without methodological empirical and reproduceable evidence. “Each of us dichotomizes the Kosmos in a different place.” — William […]

At about $200 CAD, the hand-painted miniatures were three times more expensive than the game itself (which includes unpainted miniatures). Balking at the price, but drawn in with […]
A story of data, discovery, progress and fear. “So you signed up for your first marathon? Is it boring?” I had a recurring question about entertainment throughout my journey on a regular basis. How could I run such long distances and not find it boring? To me training wasn’t boring. After reflecting on the question […]
