The "office": interview corner, video stream & video-on-demand guys, the "design is dead"-team, and some artists passing by. Yes, some people tend to work very hard.

What are you laughing about, Gunnie? We're at work!

People are out there. "Let the music play"!

Weird of wacko?

Lesson of the day:

When "busy people" are hard to reach, just block there access to the computer.

Requirements: post-its & balls

It works.

Justice! Out Now & In My Hands!

Sometimes small things can make a change.


This moring, I woke up with a nasty stomage pain.
I was already late for work, when my car announced "roue degonflé".
F*ck! It's Murphy again. Messing with my day schedule.
Arriving late at work with dirty hands and a fucked-up mind.

And then I found something in my mailbox.
A gift from God! (in this case: goddess > thank you, B.!)
Thanks for making my day!!

So this is my office...looks more like a sacred chappel, don't you think?
Worship Justice now!

Buy this album - Cross - by Justice

my other love

As the MacBook has taken over a part of my PC-life, this short message is dedicated to mi bebe...who's most of the time sleeping while I'm writing a little update.

Here is what she deserved...a little attention :-)

And yes! She's ironing...must be the second time since 1977! (no kidding)
She even likes it. Sure, didn't I just tuck the kids in bed? Drove her from here to there (through town) to get her stuff done?

Stanley says

Stanley says the truth.

Just wanted to share my enthusiasm with y'all. It ain't much. But it's a start. Look at the youtube vid.

The following has been made with:
- Reason 3.0
- Ableton Live 5
- microKORG
- Korg microKONTROL
- iMovie

...all connected to that macBook baby of mine.



Enjoy

microKorg connected

Finally.

The awesome microKorg I bought like 1 year ago is finally connected to my Ableton Live & Edirol UA-25 external soundcard.
And you know what? It works! No drivers needed, no installation cd, no error screens.
I feel alive!


The rather messy but functional set-up.

That's it for now, so let's jam! Will certainly keep you posted. My neighbours already know I have a new toy!

Cheers

The promise

So here we go.

I finally bought myself that Macbook 13" I've been dreaming of. And yes, it's a swift machine.
Can't even remember I once thought Apple was only for snobs or web designers. It's not.
It's pricy, but in the end, it's worth every eurocent. Or that's what I tell myself...


(I admit I bought it with student discount - hey what the h*ck - when I was a student, I didn't have the budget to even enter an Apple store.)

Goodnight
