And The Beat Goes On

I’ve got a few ideas for what to use this space for:

-CV

-Music Experiments (demos, covers, samples, whatever)

-Software Demos

-’Art’

-A Diary of all of the emails a get because of ‘Other Daniel’ whose family send me photos of outings and whose college informed me he had graduated around the same time as I did.

This one is a little tricky legality-wise being something I’m not sure a law yet governs. If anyone has any ideas as to how I can be sure it’s OK to publish crap I get for someone else who uses my email address email me. I regularly un-subscribe his shit and have informed any of his friends and family that I’m not him but they still send me things.

-Comedy ideas I can’t afford to produce

-Comedy ideas I have produces (probably cheap)

-A Rant or Two

-Programming Hints & Tips

-Shorts stories / sections from novels I’ll never finish

-An ‘Un-Subscribe’ button

-Finally, more of these playlists I’ve starting making on days I choose music as the background to my working day/night. I’ll try and find a YouTube link where possible as some might have some hidden visual splendor I’m unaware of. In fact, I’m copying and pasting things so fast I’m probably missing official videos and pasting in some gimp’s photographic slide-show from a wet trip to an empty dogging alley with his ‘uncle’, probably. If you find a better one let me know.

Mexican Teenagers – Kaki King

London Bye Ta-Ta – David Bowie (Bowie at Beeb)

Now that the business side of my life is well and truly at home over at Fantastic Development, I feel I can get back to having a web presence all of my own.

To prove it, here’s a fairly meaningless First NEW post with the beginnings of my evening’s work playlist (the links are all to YouTube videos):

Warszawa - David Bowie / Brian Eno
Even Flow – Pearl Jam
The Recluse – Plan B
A Modern Midnight Conversation – The Chemical Brothers
Don’t Ask – grizzly bear
Black Swan (Vogel Bonus Beat Eraser remix) – Thom Yorke
Confessions Of A Pig – Monkey (Damon Albarn & Jamie Hewlett)
Leave Home – The Chemical Brothers
Black Dog – Led Zeppelin
Supertheory Of Supereverything – Gogol Bordello
Eclipse - Pink Floyd
Tuna In The Brine – Silverchair

…and, yes, that’s an OpenGL / Futurama joke you see in the post title. Readers may need to get used to that sort of thing.
