i was recently introduced to a wonderful artist, vince guaraldi- since then it has replaced my usual postprocessing music genre of scream metal;
unusual? i don’t know; there’s some level of concentration that i’m able to obtain while listening to the heavy riffs and shredding. i think it must have been because i was an avid fan of slipknot, korn, mudvayne, system of a down, deftones, and the works, when i was in middle school and the earlier part of highschool. i’ve since moved on from the ‘harder’ handful of these bands, like slipknot- i still really love the heavy distortion; but the lyrics are amazingly oppressive and i can feel the weight of the words behind their music pressing down on me- spiritual? i wouldn’t be surprised.
the only bad thing about my new found postprocessing genre is that sometimes i find it hard to focus because my mind starts wandering in a handful of directions:
- i wish i knew how to dance; formal dance, that is. yup, i should learn how to dance
- i should grab a drink and just relax to the music; quite counter productive to the whole idea of actually postprocessing (and also the fact that i’m deathly afraid of bringing liquids near my computer after my recent two spills that i’ve had by my dell a week or two ago- i guess i’m just getting clumsy)
- i wish it were christmas; nuff said- christmas jazz rocks 
i’ve been thinking about this for a while- regarding wedding photography
i really enjoy it, but i don’t really think that being the main photographer is the thing for me. i wonder if there’s actually meaning to being the ‘second photographer’ all the time.
the analogy that comes to mind considers the roles that artists have within a band; there’s the vocalist, the guitarist, drummer, bassist (and keyboardist and what not…). and i begin thinking about the bassist in the band; generally the most overlooked musician in the band- but a good bassist understands the role that he plays in the band and doesn’t have the urge to take center stage to soon become the lead vocalist in the future.
am i role playing; or just a noob who doesn’t want to step out of the comfort bubble? 
i’m sure you’ve noticed the recent switch from my usual posts of watermarked images framed by a white border-
the switch was made (temporarily?) as i’ve gotten slightly lazy regarding going through the extra steps of batching the images, and uploading them here in ssanga one by one.
moreover, the music function of the slideshow is something i kinda like- placing music with the images definitely adds to the ambiance as the pictures transition by; and not to mention having all the images ready for viewing in the gallery function is definitely something i’m liking.
(i have realized, though, that i spend pretty much double the time looking for music to go with the slideshow- and maybe the novelty will die off and i’ll get tired of that too- but for now, it sure beats the repetitive task of uploading images on here)
though- i’d like some feedback;
should i bring back the classic form of uploading the pictures individually?
what’s easier to view?
