Flick'rgrams

So with Instagram being so bloated recently and clogged, I have decided to revive my Flickr account feeding it through Hipstamatic (a natural tie-in through the App). It's a place where photos that I don't care to share on Instagram can reside. I shoot alot of stuff, plenty that I don't think anyone cares to see but I like to have a place to keep them as a backup. I am looking into Google Drive as a backup though I am already pretty tied into Dropbox. For now, I like that Flickr is always there and saves it all regardless of whether I have a Pro account or not. Plus I have been using it for years.

Television and Steve Jobs

"When you’re young, you look at television and think, There’s a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little older, you realize that’s not true. The networks are in business to give people exactly what they want. That’s a far more depressing thought. Conspiracy is optimistic! You can shoot the bastards! We can have a revolution! But the networks are really in business to give people what they want. It’s the truth." -Steve Jobs, Newsweek, 1996

Video made from mostly Canon DSLR footage sitting on my hard drive doing nothing. Quite a bit of it was from Templeton's camera(s) as well, his DSLR and GoPro. Mostly from sessions over the last two years of so.

Old Man

Neil Young was 26 when he wrote this song. Holy. Fuck.

Vidvideo

Shot and edited this for work (well, shot some of it). I chose the first song and shot and edited all the footage in the first song/second song. I edited the third song part, of YMCA National footage or footage from local video extraordinaire, Dave Haycox (Most of the footage in the third song is Canon 5D).

Is this the end blogger? 

Awe, Hell.

Today, on Facebook, I saw a super sweet status update.

"Why do people who don't believe in God celebrate Christmas? Just saying..."

Merry Christmas Everyone!!

Get you some! RIP Hubert Sumlin.

R.E.M. rocker

I was never a huge fan of R.E.M. (and am still not really) but this song always got my attention. So fucking awesome in so many ways.

Spotify and Facebook. Please just stop.

"Let's go back to music: It is meaningful if I tell you that I really like the avant-garde music by Olivier Messiaen. It's also meaningful to confess that I sometimes relax by listening to Pink Floyd. But if this kind of communication is replaced by a constant pipeline of what's queued up in Spotify, it all becomes meaningless. There's no "sharing" at all. Frictionless sharing isn't better sharing; it's the absence of sharing. There's something about the friction, the need to work, the one-on-one contact, that makes the sharing real, not just some cyber phenomenon. If you want to tell me what you listen to, I care. But if it's just a feed in some social application that's constantly updated without your volition, why do I care? It's just another form of spam, particularly if I'm also receiving thousands of updates every day from hundreds of other friends."
