Here we are... the start of my blog.

This is not only my first blog entry but my first opportunity to set a foundation for what these blogs will consist of.

I often am creating and I realized I should document more of my journey as well as create a place to reference information I find very useful. Having spent time in the Bay Area during the tech boom (both,) I took full advantage in learning as many facets about software and it's anatomy. I look to pass along different references as well as my own views to hopefully insight thought, conversation and perspective.

1. Project Updates

JoeX0F: My long-time friend Joe has commissioned me to help him with his evolving community. I will be helping him with emotes, graphics and digital content.
DosMef.com: I will be working on my Winter 2023/2024 clothing designs.
MxMR2: I've been executive producing a music project. I'm sorry but some of this I have to keep private to maximize it's impact. Just know I have been working on a music project but not directly hands-on with the music part of the process.
Il Arte Museo: I am brainstorming plans to reboot this brand with the latest energy from Jaffar.
DiTD: A special hiphop project I've been working on for a while. More info coming soon, but the concept is hiphop culture-related content.
This Site (rictor.space): I will be adding more projects to this site (LetsCypher, MxMR2, etc.) Also, I'll be adding to my blog, ideally on a frequent-enough cadence.

2. Personal Updates

I'm looking to join the mass amounts of americans who play pickleball. A facility is getting built near me and I'm pretty excited to join a league and do something competitive again. Outside of activities, I'm down 30lbs from the start of the year which I'm happy about (obviously.) This site is helping me refocus and deal with the kind of life changes that occur in your 40's.
Lastly on a gaming-tip, I've been playing the new Cyberpunk 2077 DLC, the Phantom Liberty. It's been a great addition to the base game and franchise. Special shoutout to CDPR for what they did in the main upgrade (2.0.)

Influence is our inner ability to lift people up to our perspective.
