Branislav Kropilak: contemporary photography

June 30th, 2008 by Ian

I like this photographers website very much. Some simple, very clinical photographs of some rather boring industrial things. However, the sharpness and colours make for some pretty pictures. I think that many shots from the ‘Garages’ and ‘Landings’ (time-lapse taken at the end of a runway) sets would make brilliant comptuer wallpapers.

The worlds most important 6-second drum loop

January 1st, 2008 by Ian

Happy new year. Lets ring in the new year with a short documentary about 39 year old piece of music that changed the world. A tale that highlights the ridiculousness of copyright law. That said, I don’t agree with what the narrator says about Squarepusher!

Can you tell what it is yet?

It's PHIL SPECTOR.  It all makes sense now!  I’ve been learning to draw with a tablet now my scanner’s completely cacked it. I’m not packing my day job in quite yet.

It was tempting to use MS Comic Sans just to excite Ian’s irrational hatreds, but I swear I’m not certain how much he’d take these days before neighbourhood pets start going missing.

I’m not sure what to make of Mr. Spector’s trial. It seems pretty open-and-shut guilty, but then my information is passed through the diseased kidney that is the mass media. I suppose I’m just quite glad that since I’ve not had much exposure to his work I honestly don’t care all that much. All I’m prepared to express is that if I was on trial for murder, I’d possibly put a little more effort into looking less like Mr. Burns’ evil, eccentric twin.
