No plans attached

I've been thinking for so long how to get the optimum experience for being creative in my own house, trying quite terrible ways of adding colour by using painted pieces of Styrofoam... which evidently did not work, in fact they discolour very easily in the Taiwanese summer Sun. So I'm left wondering what to do, what to do... after witnessing the painting or repainting job done at joy I'm left reminded of the fact that I was contemplating painting the house, and improving the lighting... all this equates to an understanding that I'll be staying in my household for a while yet... maybe even in the short term it is worth it.... cheap paint... a day spend painting and tidying, it might improve the experience of living in the house I am living in.

In addition I want that creative space defined, where, what defines it... Some sort of lab type experience. Creativity comes from others, yet I don't have others to be creative with. What does that mean?

Quick blog post... talking about mobiles... and other stuff.

Completely unrelated to my recent job changes which will come into effect after John makes his appearance at Joy, I still retain the passion for mobile devices. In fact, my infatuation extends to jabbering talk to Helen when she tried to wake me up the other day, I was talking about camera comparisons, when actually I was trying to make excuses to get out of washing up before having to cook dinner, the tired mind works in crazy ways, or I'm just crazy... I blame it on my infatuation.

Anyway, I've just purchased a HP pre 3 from eBay for eighty smacks, Damn, that's a lot of mazooma for a hobby... trying to justify it in terms of UI experience is quite rich, oh well there is an element of truth in that no doubt. But I just can't wait to have that device and people second looking at it, thinking what's that... I guess it takes a certain kind of person. I have no idea how many people actually bought this device, would be an interesting thing to know how many were produced. It was the last gasp of a dying company, and OS... so I can't imagine there were many.

So far:

HTC legend
Nokia e70
HTC touch diamond
HP Pre 3

I must make a list of important mobile phones, hardware revolutionised, software experience specialties... etc. To get the list started:

HTC Google nexus one
Samsung galaxy nexus
Nokia n9
Kyocera echo

Plus many more: obviously it is not practical to think to buy them all... but some cheaper ones going on eBay would be great.

There's my thought for the day... I should be getting my phones in the near future, a few weeks or so. I will update, and hopefully take a more academic approach to reviewing analyzing these devices.

Bye.
