More red hat high
Almost finished with Red Hat High week. Check out this Red Hat Magazine article for a better summary than I can provide.
Pretty cool experience. I learned a lot, and I think the students did as well. I hope I can put up some of the tracks they put together this week.
Trying to teach classes of any sort always wears me out. And this week was no exception. I think I need about 40 hours of sleep now.

gimp brushes
So I’ve been tasked with trying to update the set of default brushes included with GIMP for it’s 2.4 stable release.
So, since this gets syndicated in a couple of planets for free/open graphics software, I figured I’d ask if anyone has any interesting brushes they would like to see included by default. High res brushes and brushes demonstration the brush pipes in particular would be good, but I’m interested in seeing what folks have.
gimpgiving
It must be the holiday’s again, for I am in the mood for hacking on GIMP paint tools again. Updated
bug “add support for color jitter in the paint tools” and .paint tools should support “smudging” as they paint.
Some examples of various states of those and other hacks at adrian.gimp.org/patches.
splicemusic
Playing around with splicemusic.com. A website that involve some aspects of a social networking site and music collab/sharing sites like ccmixter. It’s all CC content, and they include a simple little flash based sequencer app for quickly building songs with the available samples.
An interesting idea, although the site still seems to be in beta. Some of the ui bits could use some work, but I like the idea of it if nothing else.

Collaborations built from the ground up
Excellent article from the News And Observer about ways open source and free culture concepts can be applied outside of the software world.
