Hi Everyone,
I’d like you to welcome Jessica and Derek to this blog! They will be assisting me throughout the process from henceforth. As a side note, Derek will be providing me with the photography equipment to document the process.
Recently, I came across a blog by Randy Connolly, a tenured instructor in the department of Computer Science and Information Systems at Mount Royal College in Calgary that also talked about absent presence. He provided some ironic but effective representations of absent presence. An interesting point he made was that we have given rise to a labyrinth of technology that supposedly helps us expand our social connections but in reality, don’t they do the opposite?
I’ve made made some revisions to the initial t-shirt design:
Currently in the process of finding a good printing place for a good price. Unfortunately, most places are 15$+ to print both front and back of the t-shirt.

These are great t-shirts. I’d love to order a few when they are ready.
Hi Randy! I don’t have a store set up for these t-shirts at the moment. My crew members and I have been wearing them around campus to speak to students about absent presence. But I’ll definitely give you a shout after my senior project is completed. I may use FaceBook to post them.
