Creativity

The forces that motivate. A talent that is born in certain individuals regardless of the nature of the calling needs an outlet. An outlet in total free form, or within a given set of rules. Toward this end I want to engage all that are so inclined to expand creatively within a given set of rules. These can be leveraged against music, programming, writing, painting, and photography.
I will attempt to add examples of each discipline.
I claim not to know the answers, just to comment on the journey.
I feel the need to develop the left brain right brain synergy.

Router modes and channel impairments

What does it mean for a wireless network to be operating in "infrastructure mode?" Clients connected to a base station (an access point or router) are operating in infrastructure mode. They communicate indirectly through this access point or router which serves as a bridge to a wired network. Ad-hoc mode networks are networks that do not rely on a router or access point infrastructure. As a result, each client participates in the routing by forwarding data to the other connected clients. What are the differences between the following types of wireless channel impairments:  path loss, multipath propagation, interference from other sources? Multipath propagation is when packet loss occurs due to electromagnetic waves reflecting off of ground objects which then take paths of different lengths between sender and receiver. Interference from other sources happens when there is interference from radio sources transmitting in the same frequency band. Wireless phones and wirel...

Maine summer 2014 photo shoot

Wells Maine beach drive I made a trip up to Wells-Ogunquit Maine last year for my vacation. I was fascinated with the coastal rock formations along the beaches that other photographers had posted throughout the web. I wanted to try my hand at capturing the dawn light and the sunlight reflecting off of the rocks with a long exposure time. In addition, some much needed away time to ride my bike and read. Marginal Way Day one consisted of scouting locations. Perhaps a quick bike ride or beach outing followed by a lobster sandwich. After unpacking I took my bike out through the streets of Wells Maine. I was struck by how similar it was to the town in the movie Jaws Martha's Vineyard. Wells is a small town with narrow streets and older homes. The beach drive featured a fantastic stretch of road just perfect for biking. After a great seafood dinner I scouted the Marginal way.  A combination of site seeing and shooting with the iPhone.  I really underestimated the amount ...

Solar Tones

Solar Tones is a system of tone generation based on the position of the planets in the solar system for any given month. The tonal or key centers were derived from the open strings of the guitar. Background The guitar is constructed in such a way that the intervals occur chromatically ascending and descending. I've drawn the parallel between the construction of the guitar and the structure of our solar system. Planetary order Sun Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune Pluto This system assigns an interval to each planet in the solar system, and additionally depending on their positions in the solar system, I have a different set of tones each month to use as a composition frame work. Planets and their equivalent interval order Sun -> Open Mercury -> mi2 Venus -> Ma2 Earth -> mi3 Mars -> Ma3 Belt of Asteroids -> P4 & aug4 Jupiter -> P5 Saturn -> mi6 Uranus -> Ma6 Neptune -> mi7 Pluto -> Ma7 The role of planetary as...
