I'm nearing the end of a two-month residency at MakerLabs, a community fabrication space here in East Vancouver. I'll write and share more about it online soon, but if you're in the Lower Mainland, please come out this Wednesday, February 25th from 7-8:30pm to see what I've been up to, along with the rest of the cohort!

If you were previously on the electoral register for the old NUI and Trinity Seanad constituencies and want to retain your vote you have to re-register for the new Higher Education Constituency - this replaces the old constituencies and there is no automatic transfer of your vote to the new register. Deadline is this Thursday

If you are a graduate of a third level institution that wasn't previously eligible to vote, you may be now. Same deadline applies

One of the best shows on national Irish Radio is 'The Blue of the Night'. It's about as concrete a definition of 'eclectic music' that you can get. I've heard everything on there from jangly bluegrass to haunting electronic trance to Himalayan throat singing.

I just found out the host, Bernard, is on Mastodon: @BernardBlue

Lyric FM Monday-Thursday 9-12pm.

How do we ensure that the #opensource components we build upon are also sustainably maintained? 🤔

@opensource organized a conference on Open Source Procurement today.

70% to 90% of all software contains open source components. 60% of those are run by 1 person. That's a fragile ecosystem.

With a purchasing volume of 116 billion euro, the Dutch gov can make an impact - if they reserve a portion of funding for open source projects in every procurement (MVOI).

Last November I was approached by Dublin City University (DCU) to be one of five artists in residence creating work for a project called SEED.

The brief is to create an artwork that presents complex environmental data without prioritising the sense of vision in the artwork. As a **visual** artist, this is obviously a challenge.

Even more challenging – it is at the artists' discretion what data to use. Sometimes having no limitation on a project can just make it more daunting.
