I remember collecting chestnuts with nonna as a kid. She called them castanian? We would collect baskets full. (e:lilho) and (e:terry) stepped on them with bare feet. They yelled and it made their feet numb.
It's so windy out that trees are falling.

Went out with the school crew at the pink. It was fun to exchange ideas a bit, then I got bored to death and remembered why I never go. I hate having to yell to talk. I miss jesse. I like to eat cake. I want to get together with jesse and eat cake.
(e:terry) says that arab inspired buildings like this one have fancy weird geometric shapes because they are not allowed to use images of real things.
(e:terry) is close

File Sharing for MemoriesCategory: rememberbuffalo
I have thought about The Remember Buffalo Project [inlink]paul,3883[/inlink] some more. I think that it is should be seen as a great opportunity for younger people to interact with the older people in their lives. Think of it like this.
Imagine the type of faily interaction this will inspire as families get togther and look at the documents on the site. You could even print out the documents and pass them around. The images and quotes, news paper clipping and other media will surely draw memories giving families a chance to share history. But it doesn't stop that. From there the memories can be inputed into the website, opening memories up to the benefits of file sharing.
From there the memories can be inputed into the The Remember Buffalo Project website, opening memories up to the bebenfits of file sharing. What makes it more interestoing is that people can invoke these memories on location from their cell phones downtown.
By sending these memories from the The Remember Buffalo Project to the location via cell phones, the memories are able going to transcend the family boundaries that they would otherwise be trapped inside of. In effect we will be allowing memories to take on a life of their own and haunt the locations they were inspired from.
Like me, I was trapped in a sunless room helping people attain mediocracy all day. Some people make it sort of worth it. But I would like sun.
At least I got to eat at spot. I am the tyranosaurus. The prices are so ridiculous here. The sandwich now costs $7.25.

The Remember Buffalo ProjectCategory: rememberbuffalo
The Remember Buffalo Project is the plan for my next big project after (e:strip). Don't worry I won't abandon (e:strip) but it will be fun to work on some other not for profit, life enriching web network.
The Remember Buffalo Project will begin it's year long project development during October of 2005. This extensive media network is being created to enable visitors of the downtown Buffalo, NY area to interact with personal experiences that occurred in the region via a map based interface on the internet and a mobile technology interface on cell phones.
Memory fragments will come from local residents and visitors os the area and shall be categorized by genre and time period so that "memory tourists" on location throughout the downtown area will be able to "peel back time" using their mobile devices. Unlike typical historical and architectural tours, information is intended to be personal in nature.
You can read more about it at the project site , which currently only contains an overview plus list of phases.
We will need many volunteers for The Remember Buffalo Project to help collect, scan and process documents, collect and process memories, make phone calls, arrange meetings, write for grants, test the The Remember Buffalo Project website, test the cell phone system, etc. If anyone is interested please contact me.

Phase -1 is getting a group of interested people together to brainstorm the process of the other phases. Maybe we should start there.
Paul, are the phases to this project linear in nature? I realize some must be from a logistical standpoint. However, you mentioned projects such as grant writing, research and others that could probably begin soon. I would like to know your strategy, and maybe I can lead or follow in one of the projects. I have various breaks in my schedule, so lets discuss :)
