Spectacular northern lights display Tuesday night, Nov. 11, 2025. I made this time-lapse video from a set of 284 photos I took between 7:46pm — 8:44pm. The Kp index peaked at 8.67!

Remember that cardboard house you made for your stuffed bunny in the stockroom? Or the shoe commercial featuring MC Hammer? Or the fake snow in that Christmas display near the fountain on the lower level?

“Directory of a Perfect Summer Day,” single-channel HD video, 5:00 minutes.
This digital recreation of a directory from Gwinnett Place Mall, Duluth, GA, shows maps of stores and locations I used to visit daily. Each element is hand-drawn from memory, animated, and paired with text I wrote describing specific memories of a typical 12-hour day at the mall.
