A art installation featuring a pay phone built entirely of used Apple packaging, mounted on a wooden backdrop.
📸 “Macintosh Killed the Public Phone Call” by Michael Leavitt
📍Mini Mart City Park, Georgetown, Seattle
🔗 Trash Talking


Reclaiming the packaging from half an Apple desktop, 8 accessories, 2 iPhones and an iPad made this sentimental lament to the pay phone possible.

Can you not rearrange the file order in Xcode anymore? Alphabetical only now? Or did a setting change?

Meet Art Museum, my first iOS app. Explore artwork from The Met, Art Institute of Chicago, and Cleveland Museum of Art. With a swipe. Or with your voice. It’s powered by SwiftUI, App Intents, and CloudKit from Apple – along with open access data and imagery – published by these museums under Creative Commons Zero (CCO) to encourage download, remix and reuse. Two years ago at WWDC22, Apple introduced App Intents. An app intent represents something people can do inside of your app, and it makes it possible to do it from outside of your app.– WWDC2022, Platforms State of the Union, Ari Weinstein, Shor... justbyspeaking.com justbyspeaking.micro.blog

WWDC Labs are great. I got detailed feedback from the accessibility design team, including from a visually impaired person on my VoiceOver implementation.

Very much missing the official WWDC Slack this year. Mostly because it brought a strong sense of community. And it was a trove of knowledge nuggets and inspo.

Today I’m building a pipeline to describe all of Art Museum’s images using the vision capability of GPT-4o. This will enable a better VoiceOver experience for blind and low vision users.

It fills me with sonic nerd joy knowing the Core Audio headers date back to 1985. Screenshot of CoreAudioBaseTypes.h, copyright 1985-2021 by Apple, Inc.
