I often focus on the scenes in travel photography, cutting out people wherever possible; however, after binge-reviewing my old albums, I've noticed that the best photos are always ones where people are interacting with the environment--even when they're tourists!

Indie WYSIWYG: How I Fixed My Instagram Problem

About two years ago I built a better content management system for posting images. To do this, I added a bulk uploader and an album generation system. The whole point of this was that I was trying to get away from using 3rd party image posting systems.
I wanted something which would:
let me keep original high-quality photos stashed in a safe, organized place.
Enable me to place images and text in an organized fashion.
Be simple enough that I would actually use it.
The Tension: Creating Content and Communication
Two years after making my album system, how did it work out?
Not so well. I don't really have more articles and albums. My blogroll from the last year looks like a glorified instagram page. I still let my photos rot on devices for a long period of time before posting them.
In the past two years, I found myself posting a lot more directly through the twitter app---no PESOs ---and letting images filter to my site using own your gram

What I did Sep1 - Sep7
Indieweb-stuff:
Tried to federate my indiewebsite so that I could interact with mastodon through it (unsuccessfully)
Hacked together a websub hub which passes all of the websub.rocks tests.
Rebuilt large chunks of my site ---particularly the back-end---so that the posting interface is nicer and easier to test.
Factored out my markdown albums, webmentioning, and hashtag extensions into separate repos which I can independently maintain.
Hooked up webmentions again so that I can see webmentions as part of an ongoing effort to improve usability of federation.
Hooked up in_reply_to again, so that I can send webmentions. This also lets me reply-tweet using brid.gy
Started posting albums and articles I'd held off on posting.
Reading:
Research proposals from different disciplines to figure out how I want to structure my candidacy document.
Bickhard's interactivism and process metaphysics
Anthony Chemero's take on representationalism
Other stuff
