Art Epiphany: There Are No Lines

“Do not try to draw the line — that’s impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth: there is no line.”

Portrait by Paige

Here’s your art epiphany for the day.

There are no such thing as lines. There is only contrast.

A line is merely a stark contrast between negative space, positive space, and negative space.

Realistic drawings mirror nature, which have adjacent gradients. Where those meet, it creates contrast.

CoffeeScript Bundle for TextMate (FIX for Command Not Found)

Installed HomeBrew to get Node.js, used the node package manager to get CoffeeScript, added a TextMate Bundle for CoffeeScript and got a “coffee: command not found” when doing a Command-B. WTF? Here’s how I fixed it.

I installed CoffeeScript on OS X using HomeBrew.

Got this error while using the CoffeeScript bundle for TextMate with the Command-B to Compile and Display JS.

/tmp/temp_textmate.CZvit9: line 12: coffee: command not found

In a new document, typing the word coffee and pressing Control-R to run it, didn’t work.

However, running coffee from the command line worked.
$ coffee -v
CoffeeScript version 1.1.2

Solution: Add /usr/local/bin to the TextMate path.
