These were all taken with my Nikon CoolPix950 Digital Camera, all with automatic settings. Postproduction in most cases was minimal - cropping, gamma correction in most cases, sharpening sometimes, and the occasional defect removal.

It's official: as of July 14 Infoscape is kaput. Infoscape was a fun company with cool technology. After the announcement, a bunch of current and former Infoscape employees got together at Payam's and drank a lot. It was fun while it lasted. RIP.


I took this a few weeks before at JavaOne... I thought the empty booth was a pretty good indication that something was wrong with Infoscape's marketing plan. I mean, spending the money on a booth and then leaving it empty isn't a good sign.

Markus, a truly nice guy.

A semi-inebriated toast to Infoscape. Hilarious fun at the best of times. At the worst of times... well, fuck that.
