I am currently head over heels in preparing my very first art portfolio and because of iOS way of cataloguing the camera roll – (I work with 3 devices each with its own directory) – I collated new work in individual folders as back up..
Leaving me with a massive task to do: reconciling, sifting and deleting all duplicates.
From 55k down to 10k just for my iPad Pro. Still got 7k+ from iPhone + iPad mini to sort after the 10k are done. View my art feed.
So for now – I am minimizing my editorial activities to a strict minimum.
Netdiver Mag is on hiatus.

_Going on Art furlough_
Netdiver Mag will be on hiatus until mid-March /18. I am embarking in a most exciting phase of my life: preparing an exhibition worthy portfolio of both generative arts + abstract & plus fluid art paintings.
On top of that – 3 print portfolios to showcase paintings + generative art to gallery owners.
A lot and lots of work ahead.

Have I got news for you!
_______
I am really pleased to announce the release of two new vintage sections on Netdiver. I compiled all editorials I wrote into a directory (including some interviews I did through the years).
Although written a good while ago – surprised at how relevant these are still today.
Editorials. Design topics or issues that have impacted me or our creative industry..
Over 50 articles.
_______
Sometime ago – someone inquired about the old news archives – the ones that were static – lol. Yep from 98-08 Netdiver was hand-coded.
It took longer than I thought the re-aggregate the content into our site design – but all done now.. and online. A legacy to the early web.
I am in the midst of revisiting links (years 04-08 to do) so – never mind broken links – the content is enough. Follow our web history from the very beginning..
Netdiver static. Walk down memory lane: archived news in design from 1998-2008.
Start beginning
Start in 2008
