I really had not intended to post another blog entry showcasing more YouTube videos so soon after my last one, but I saw this and just had to share.

Noah Kalina, a photographer living and working in New York City, created this video by taking a photograph of his face, every day for six years. Then he put all the videos together, added some original piano music, and now we are treated to an amazing piece of art. Simply watching the video, it is difficult to sense the subtle changes in his face, much like we cannot see the changes in our own faces on a daily basis. But, if you look away for a while (or use the rewind and fast forward feature), you can easily see that more than just Noah’s hair and clothing changes. It’s art, but it’s also biology and sociology, all wrapped up in music. His website is overwhelmed with traffic right now. I guess that’s the price you pay for your 15-minutes of fame. That and 6 years of dedication to taking your photo each day.

K.W. "Will" Murray is what happens when an out-of-the-box teacher coexists with a tech guru and gets bitten by a radioactive artist while camping in the Great Outdoors. Assisted by 80s pop and an undying love of space exploration and electronics kits, Will spends his days translating complex tech-speak into simple human while living the Scout Law. When he's not mentoring others or sharing his knowledge, you'll find him exploring Disney parks with the enthusiasm of a first-timer but the strategic planning of a veteran campaigner. Although based in California's capital city, Will prefers to think of himself as a digital nomad who accidentally grew roots, spreading knowledge wherever he lands. He's been an IT consultant, coach, community leader, and occasional stagehand (though he claims that last one doesn't count since he was just helping out). Over the past two decades, he's helped everyone from religious institutions to government agencies navigate the ever-evolving tech landscape, while maintaining his reputation as the guy who can explain anything to anyone—sometimes with sound effects and hand gestures at no extra charge.
