Preview of Lucas Museum of Narrative Art
After arriving, we went straight to Skywalker Grill for lunch. The food was incredible and the views spectacular. The architecture was beautiful with wood, metal, and glass working together in almost organic ways.
Immediately after lunch, we hit up the star wars gallery, i took so many 3D photos and even a few 3D scans. This is the best one i got all day: The fate of Jaba the Hut.
#Defcon 34 was meshtastic!
i am back home after another incredible con. I returned with t-shirts, badges, and bursting with knowledge. One of the fun and interesting message channels this year was Meshtastic, Defcon had their own firmware again this year, but from what i hear, it went much better this year. there was a wealth of information and humor coming over this tiny radio.
The Lonley Hackers Club was printing the meshtastic messages out of a receipt printer, the pile got pretty big. Even the Bio Hacking Village added LoRa to their badge!
Big Lebowski screening and after party at Palace Theatre!
i love this movie and will watch it at nearly any opportunity. A friend informed me that it was playing at the palace with an after party in a unit above the theater that was actually used to film Mod’s apartment! The event was put on by the Secret Movie Club. Apart from a few technical glitches and the fact that it was a 4k blu-ray instead of 35mm projection, it was a solid moviegoing experience. The afterparty was very interesting. drinking white russians while exploring this incredible theatre. It turned out that some of the most interesting places where actually off limits, but we didn’t know.
Big changes seen from epic vantage!
The Promenade mall was an iconic mall in the valley for decades. i watched countless movies at that AMC. i waited in line for some of my first iPhones in that mall. For years it was just a movie theatre and a half abandoned food court. I took this epic shot from the top floor of the warner center. you can even see the Rams training facility and of course, P.F. Chang’s is still there.
i found some older pics from the end of 2022 of the mall abandoned. enjoy. Continue reading “Big changes seen from epic vantage!”

During a visit to the Getty i scanned a few sculptures. Here, i’ve included the files i hope you can make use of them. let me know how it turns out. Scans were made using Scaniverse.
Father’s day in Hell’s kitchen!
i snagged some incredible rush tickets to the last night Alicia Keys’ musical at the Pantages Theater.
First visit to Tuna Canyon since the fires
Great weather inspired the visit. i was curious how much it had changed since the fires. unfortunately it changed a lot. There were more than a few fire scars, a couple of missing oak trees and some different trails. i met some brush cleaning goats.
