Yup, it's that time again. As the year revolves around my birthday (and not January 1st, but god bless you all for getting close), it's time for me to do a retrospective of my year of being 27 (on the day before I cease being it), as seen through my public identity of aggregated 0's and 1's stored on servers around the world. It's my time to sit here and realize that I still have yet to make that great mathematical discovery, and I'm losing time quickly (it becomes impossible at age 30).

So, this year, I:

- Lived outside of Oklahoma for a full year for the first time, ever.
- Open sourced a dance accidently.
- Perverted a web service and then turned it into furniture
- Slapped together generative art
- And then slapped together some more generative art
- And some hand followy lights
- And hooked a yoyo to a wiimote
- Helped build knob boobs
- Went to my first SIGGRAPH
- Helped organize a conference after I explicitly said I'd never do that again
- Started my first open source projects (versus just helping on them) (libnifalcon, libtrancevibe, liblightstone
- Learned two new languages (Python, Max)
- A bunch of other stuff I'm not documenting here, like awesome new people I met and all that.

Well. It was no 2005, but it'll do.
