The concept of Happy Path really is a life mantra. Just like the useful “Pull, don’t push”, it tells you to find the most pleasurable and effortless context in which to work in. If you’re loving what you’re doing and do not feel like it’s work at all, then stay on that lane. Or path.
The work I’ve been doing over the years — more than ten, as of this writing — using WordPress really makes it feel pleasurable, potent, painless. I can express myself using it, especially since paired with the reliable LAMP stack.

Introducing the flashy new Hammond trio with a catchy summer tune “Calypsol”.
After teaming with Madalena, Bruno Santos and Catarina Sobral on a teaser for Contraconto, a play for kids spanning the 12 months of the year, we set once again to give life to another of Bruno’s projects.
The invite to give life to the upbeat song “Calypsol” was turned into a portrait of a chilled rehearsal session, in this case at the home of the main guitar man himself.
A 4-month collaboration with Madalena Marques has just come to fruition, and is now live.
Deep focus, where talent meets purpose
The website conveys the spirit of Madalena’s work, past and present.
It’s challenging to convey so many interests and ideas about theatre (for kids), culture and cultural mediation. But a good challenge = gratifying work.
The final result stems from long hours of fruitful teamwork. So what you see and interact with is a mashup of creative ideas and background. Equal parts Fred, equal parts Madalena.
The difference between Twitter and Facebook is that the former understands and plays nicely with the internet, while the latter wants to become the internet.

Engaging with a captivating article online tends to be a fractal experience, in which a tab ends up turning into multiple tabs. I managed to close all said tabs plus the original, and that, I feel, calls for celebration.
A while back I wrote in astonishment how there wasn’t — the web being around for so many years, after all — a reliable way to manage website bookmarks. A simple solution that would allow you to save, tag and explore a collection of your favorite websites. After all, the building block of the web is the hyperlink.
Turns out there is, rejoice!
