Freelancing again

I’m back writing on my blog as I’m leaving a full-time job again going back to freelancing only… I mean, the real reason? I’ve got a very acute form tonsillitis which forced me stuck at home all Easter week. But anyway, my life is really about to change again. I’m back writing on my blog as I’m leaving a full-time…

Lonely lonely, I go full-time

As we all know freelancing has pros and cons. The pros are: – freedom – higher hourly rate (so ideally working less and earning more) – the chance to continuously meet new people and extend your network – to work on different projects in various fields – to be your own boss The cons are: – insecurity – often you…

Digital Nomad in Canggu

After 3 weeks in Sri Lanka, I flew to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Where I stayed only for few days as the weather was not the best, pouring rain every afternoon, all afternoon. After all I knew that. I did my research before leaving and wrote everything in a spreadsheet called When to visit, you can have a look at it…

The trip begins

So eventually I decided to leave. 6-7 months of travel. That’s the maximum I’m a allowed not to break my continuous residency in the UK, permitted that in this period I would continue to work and produce invoices. I spoke with an immigration lawyer before leaving and that should be fine. To start I went for about 3 weeks to…
Should I Stay or Should I go

Should I stay or should I go?

I want to be free. Why not? After all the only things I need are my laptop and an internet connection. I found…

Hamster Wheel Trailer

In these days I’m putting together an explanatory short film of my Human-Sized Hamster wheel, using all the videos I shot during the four days exhibition last November.

Play vs Game

An interesting article Andrzej Marczewki explains the difference between play and game and therefore between playfulness and gamification. He summarises his reasoning with some bullet points: – Play is free form and has no extrinsically imposed goals. It is done for fun or joy. – Games add defined goals and rules to play (such as challenges). – Toys are objects…

Energy conversion

I bought a 12″ bicycle 😀 As I mentioned in a previous post, the energy conversion from kinetic to electric to charge the phone, occurs thanks to a small bicycle wheel put in contact with the big hamster wheel. The smaller the bike wheel, the more energy would have been generated, so I opted for a 12” kids bike wheel,…

Overall Technology progression

Being honest, when I applied for the MA Interaction Design Communication one year ago, I didn’t know exactly what it was about. My original intention was to study Communication Design, however I was intrigued by the Interaction Design program mostly because there were many things which I didn’t know at all. Furthermore, just six months before applying I started to…
