My studio is located in Brisbane, Australia. For the past 10 years I’ve been enjoying creating jewellery designs from an array of mundane materials. Tupperware and knitting needles have remained a firm favourite. My designs have been published numerous times, graced the shelves of many wonderful galleries and stores and been worn by those whose aren’t afraid of colour and attention. All of which I am very grateful for. For several years I’ve also been fortunate enough to work with many businesses as a coach and workshop facilitator.

Geek Week (3) - Computers Are Geeky??


Are computers geeky? I really don't think so, in fact I think if your not online you practically don't exist. Harsh? Not at all, I know that I don't take a business seriously if it doesn't have a website.

Is it geeky that I can't start the day without being online for at least an hour (or several). I stumble out of bed, grab a cup of coffee and start her up. No one is allowed (at your own risk) to engage in conversation with me until I've drunk two cups of coffee, checked my emails, blogged and surfed through several sites. Normal right? And spending from 7 a.m to 8 p.m online on Monday, with barely an hour off the computer, may have been a tad longer than usual but I can't say I didn't enjoy it.

I totally agree with you - if you're not on-line your not in the 21st century and have absolutely no idea about what's going on these days. Sure there are some exceptions (I mean its not essential to being alive as a human being) but if you think you're "with it" and you don't even have a small blog on say 'Stumble Upon' at the very least then, well your not with it. Pure maths there I'm afraid. Though this could be a totally biased opinion on my part;)

ps. eye spy more dolls!

Oh yeah it is Giles! He's packing some heat isn't he! That's more Geek Power for you.

Buffy geeky! Never. Oz is giving you the evil eye from his post of the speaker.

Oh my god is that a poster of OZ?! whoa, I'm sensing a mega Buffy fan here.

Flojo that is a poster of Micheal Ondaatje. But I would like a poster of Oz (so cute!).
