In those seemingly quite moments of exploration, when we’re all alone, and when we don’t know what we’re doing, that is when we might be the most alive. Consider this quote by Chuck Palahniuk, who often pulls from personal experience when writing his novels. – Our real discoveries come from chaos, from going to the place…
The synthesizer seems to be back in full force ladies and gentlemen. That desire for quality samples, lossless file compression and physical models seems to be something that most if not all top shelf pop music trend setters are using right now. But for why?

Sometimes you get the credit and sometimes the credit gets you. Whether we’re talking about university or book keeping is kinda unclear, because this word has roughly ten or so definitions, but we’re gonna roll with the punches and hope that all of my generalizations will bolster a sense of respect and confidence in my…
It’s that time again friends! I want to share something with you. Something special – Specifically to remind you that you don’t really need to shape the aesthetics of your art for anyone other than yourself.

I’m glad I went to art school. I was exposed to a lot of people looking to impress, but without anything real to offer up. The struggle of the artist isn’t one of employment, it’s whether they can commit to a purpose and authentically represent it. Too many posers walk around pretending they suffer, when…
Exploration is important, it allows you to learn things about yourself, to make friends, find lovers, to live life in a more productive and harmonious state.

I’m a little bit nervous to write about this topic. Mostly because I think that fashion is a personal choice.
