Seattle, WA*
San Francisco, CA*
Lost Angeles, CA*
Memphis, TN
Austin, TX
Las Vegas, NV*
Bangkok, Thailand*
Chiang Mai, Thailand
Phuket, Thailand

(Locations with a * are ones that I stayed at more than once and on non-consecutive days.)

Total miles traveled (not including commuting and such): 56,940 (50,827 flown on United)

Not as many as I thought previously, but it looks like 2009 will include twice as much travel. I’m also considering switching my mileage to Air Canada instead of United for several reasons, though this year I *will* qualify for Premier Executive status which is nice. That might make it hard to switch… I guess we’ll see.

(Fast forward to 1:08 or so.)

And no, I’m not obsessed with Radiohead. There just happen to be a lot of really amazing remixes and videos from their latest album.

Weird Fishes: Arpeggi from flight404 on Vimeo.

My mind has mixed feelings, watching this video. Is it trippy? Is it beautiful? All of the above? I can’t stop watching. Whatever adjectives describe the video, it was made with Processing. Which is both impressive and insane.

High quality version is available on the blog post.
