This one’s mine…

So, I have been playing with CakeWalk Sonar X1 Essential and this is my first complete piece.  Not bad for a first try in a long time if I don’t say so myself.

Techno Intro

Studio Stuff

I took some digital music survey classes at Edmonds Community College around 1995.  I created four musical pieces and they have been sitting on a DAT since then.  I decided to pick up a DAT player off of eBay and was able to rip it.  Here are the MP3s:

Particles everywhere!!!

I have been thinking about making a fireworks screensaver for a bit and one of the things I thought would be really cool to have is a good particle engine for generating and drawing sparks and such.  I spent a few evenings working on it and came up with a good modular engine that can [...]

Windows Phone Stuff

I’m having fun with Windows Phone at work. Made me think it might be fun to try some personal project at home. I started a Silverlight project and it is going to take a little more learning to get that going full bore but I’ve got a good start. I also started a game project [...]

End of an era in my life and the beginning of a new one…

I have been at my current job for over six years, now. It is where I spend most of my time away from being at home. I have really been confused about how I feel about the fact that after tomorrow, I won’t be going to work there anymore. I guess I should explain a little more. [...]

Happy New Post!

Unintentional light trails…

 

Just shows you that I had issues taking a picture of the moon at Tiger Lake this year.  I think it turned out to be a cool shot but it was totally on accident.  I like the dotted line due to 60Hz A/C power from the lights across the lake.

My iPhone

I got an iPhone recently and have been really enjoying it. It is a great device that does everything I have been able to think of wanting to do so far. The only thing I can say about it that isn’t praise is that the camera is lacking. I have been too spoiled with a [...]

Polyhedrons Everywhere!

 

Yet another couple of evenings with a TV show, a movie, and a crappy deck of cards.  It’s the best use for bad cards I have found.
