Hold On

June 28th, 2009 by james in Art, Film, Me, Music, Photo

This photo I shot today was inspired by the documentary Scott Walker - 30 Century Man. It is the first photo in a series I am interested in developing called Hold On.

You can view this splendid Stephen Kijak film on DVD or stream it online via Netflix.

If you dig Brian Eno, David Bowie, Radiohead, any sort of Avant-garde music, see where they got their inspiration. Here is some more info at IMDB and Wiki.

There is no doubt about it. Danny Malone will be famous. Check out his sites, listen to and buy his music to help him along. I know I will be. Haunting lyrics, great singer and knows how to capture difficult emotions with his voice and guitar playing.

Have a look for yourself:

Ok, I may be late to the party… but this kid makes my day every time I watch him play. Check out at least a couple of his vids before you make up your mind if you dig or do not.

Check him out on his site too. The image on his front page shows him in the studio with Papa Roach. This kid is going places. Go internets!

Here is a video piece on him from Paste magazine. Please buy this kids music, I know I am.

(P.S. I’m thinking I should have continued on with the piano lessons.)

The first Nor’Easter of winter on the first day of winter. This is not a good sign. Happy Solstice nonetheless.

Mac laptops with 10.4.x-10.5.x, Wifi N problems still persist…

August 21st, 2008 by james in Apple, Mac, Me

I am still very frustrated to report that problems still persist with Mac laptops running OS 10.4.x-10.5.x and Wifi N routers. I have spent many months looking through countless support sites, forums and blogs to find a solution to this problem. All I have found is a horde of frustrated Mac laptop users who are desperate for a fix from Apple. Check out the view counts on some of these posts.

57,776 views?!?! Come on Apple. Fix this already… Pretty Please?
