Have I ever told you guys about the music I've made some years ago? Did I have a blog at that time?

Well, it's probably obvious to everyone that I've been letting my blogs wither a bit. Especially this one, but the one at boonbot.com too. Guess I haven't felt much like writing recently. Well, I better not do that for too long periods of time if I want to ever become famous, eh? Anyway, if you feel like listening to some of the stuff that came from my messing around a few years back, here's one that I like: It's not professional in any way obviously, actually I've been taking some piano lessons that I kept dropping out of from boredom as my only musical education. You probably can't even get a year of total practice if you put it all together. Anyway. All I can give you for now is youtube quality:

Drones Advancing - By Sander

Actually I just did this for a short while, making my own music. It was fun. I kind of miss it but I haven't been taking my time and often get caught up with something else before I can get to finish a track when I try to start again. My cousin still does it. He started a little before I began to experiment, using the same software. He has started up a website to host his stuff now. The website is called Puresound.dk. Oh yeah: And he calls himself a variety of names. EventA, Boesgaard, Marindoom. Watch out for those in the future. One of those might be a great name in trance music all of a sudden. Here's a piece of his music that haven't gotten on the website yet:

Infinity - By EventA. You should try and check him out.

Me? I'm doing schoolwork mostly and then playing around with techgame, boonbot.com and ads.zunavi.dk whatever I feel most like doing from day to day. Also I've been wasting away lots of time on Starcraft II and movies and I have really no idea... oh yeah! Reading mathematics. Damn. Well, hope I can soon start being a bit more visible on the internet again. Just for my own sake, hehe. Nah. I can see on my traffic statistics that a few people still seems to be coming back once in a while. Thanks guys.

Still alive and reporting from Banqiao, Taipei County, Taiwan. Been a bit gloomy lately, so I'm sorry for not having had the mood to write much.

Today it rained a lot. In the morning, it was a little cloudy and over the afternoon the city would start looking foggy when looking from the higher floors. Then it started raining a little, then more, then a little less. I decided to take a walk towards Taipei city by that time. Was told that it was impossible to walk all the way. I'd have to take a bus or MRT past the river as there isn't a lot of bridges for pedestrians. I don't know about that. Seems it's possible to cross the river walking next to the highway but I wouldn't do it for the fear that people might get angry. Besides, it rained.

I got off from school in Xinpu and got as far as Jangzicui pretty quick. Walking to the river from there on was a mystery to me with all those highways and roads and stuff over there. I did find a pretty nice place though, below one of the big highway bridges connecting Banqiao and Taipei. I did have to turn around a few times to get there, and apparently all the stuff they have over there is old gas stations and metal junk yards so not many people will bother to go there I believe. Especially on a rainy day. By the time I decided to rest for a while, (or rather, couldn't move further without walking into a river,) the rain was now so strong that I would rather stand under the highway. At that time it was raining like a heavy Danish rainsquall, but without all that wind and briefness that goes with those. I took some pictures with my puny point and shoot camera, depressed for not having brought the big gear. Next time it rains on a hot day, I'm going to bring it there I hope.

Amazing how few raindrops the camera manages to catch, isn't it? I can assure you it was raining cats and dogs, but these little point and shoots just doesn't do the magic like a DSLR. * Sad face *

While I was there I felt really strange. Been reading a lot lately. Especially Haruki Murakami and I felt like I could just aswell have been in one of his books. It was really jazzy there. Dark and not so crowded in a somewhat far off and quiet place. The sound from rain slipping down over the border of the bridge and cars driving around up there above was just awesome. And then it's like the end of a small world. Usually it gets really cold whenever the rain comes. (It is a bit cold now, actually.) But at that time, the air was still hot from the last few summerdays we've had, so it was pleasant. Also. Just standing below such a giant structure that such a bridge is is something I don't do everyday. I do skitter around below grand highways daily, they're everywhere, but it's quite some months since I stood below a bridge this size. You should try it. Go find a big bridge by a river and stand under it when it rains a lot. Haha. I hope you've read Haruki Murakami yourself. Otherwise you have probably no idea of where I'm trying to get with this writing. I hope you enjoyed it, though.

Can't promise too much with all these things going on, but I'll try and drag my DSLR over there sometime.

Now, this might be a 1,5 years since the film was actually made, but I just saw a movie called On The Road With Judas, and I was amased. It's no wonder to me, that it got a nomination in the Sundance Film Festival, but it has me puzzled, that it hasn't got nominated for anything else yet.

I'll try not to spoil too much
(so please don't be too scared of reading why I recommend this film).
So I read that the director, JJ Lask, made the movie in a quite inconventional way. Appareantly, he had all his actors read the book that the movie is based on, and interviewed them with the camera running, where they had to improvise as if they were the people in the book, and so he uses this as the fundament of the movie appareantly. In between each interview sequence is montaged a piece of "actual acting", and that's where it becomes exciting, for the fictional show host (which is played by JJ Lask) has found the fictional "real" person and a "fictional" actor for each of the persons in the book by the same name as the film. Thereby he makes a movie about a fictional movie based on events that are "real events" in this fictional world. And so, we see the actors play out the fictional real things that happen, and the opposing fictional fictive events, and these two aren't always the exact same. Most of the time the two versions stick well together, but when it comes to Katharsis, things stray from what "really happened".

Appareantly, JJ Lask is happy for the "Kill your darlings" principe. The plot is horrible, the sound is not very good put together in the first parts of the film, and all the characters in the movie are static idiots with screwed egos, who no idea of what they are doing and barely any idea of what they're really trying to achiev. Just look at the name of the fictional show, that the film builds upon: "Let's do drinks". It's really the essence of horrible entertainment, and here's where the movie shows us what a big fat parody our media-based entertainment industry is today.

Of course, there's a lot more to the movie, and I could delve much more into analysis, but if you have the chance, you should go ahead and see it. If not, remember it's name and go rent it whenever you bump into it (or see if you can find some place to get it for free at the internet. - I heard there should be some way to obtain it for free? :S At least I'm finding half price offers around.) I read someone dubbing it hogwash somewhere on the web (might very well be on IMDb), and maybe there's something to it, but if it's really that much of a bunch hogwash, (which might very well be the intention of the director,) so let it be a magnificent example of hogwash.
Oh, and I didn't get paid to write this. ^^

I dag stødte jeg så på udtrykket hogwash (heldigvis ikke rettet mod mig ^.^), og måtte straks slå det op på onlinedictionary.com eller whatever side, google nu bringer mig. (Ja, knock it up, hvis din fancy er tickled).

Af hvad er vigtigere, så stødte jeg for jeg ved ikke hvilken gang ind i strid på internettet igen. Jeg kom til at tænke på Tøger Seidenfadens pikhat, som han jo så fik skænket af Jakob Martin Strid i en af hans politiken striber for jeg ved ikke hvor lang tid siden (joh, jeg tvivler sku på det kraftigste, om han rent faktisk fik en i virkeligheden, men nuvel, kudos til Tøger for at være sådan et prægtigt menneske, at han ikke straks sparkede Strid og stribe af avisen).
Nå, men så fandt jeg jo Strid.dk. Jeg ved ikke hvor længe siden har været oppe. DK-Hostmaster siger, at domænet har eksiteret siden 1999, men siden ser temmelig ny ud.
Nu håber jeg altså, at den er forholdsvis ny, sådan at der kommer mere om ikke så længe, for Strid har hurtigt rodet sig ud i et nyt eventyr.

Jeg kan på det kraftigste anbefale, at man tager en tur forbi siden og ser de 13 striber, han har lagt der, og så i øvrigt bør man, hvis man kan lide det, og det kan man, gå ned og købe sig et eksemplar af Den Store Strid, og Den Store Strid 2.

Nårja... Igen har jeg spildt en dag af mit liv, isoleret i mit lille værelse med kun en hjemsøgt computer til at holde mig med selvskab (og så idioterne, der render rundt neden under). Nye databaser er blevet sat i verden, og måske kan techgame snart igen sætte kurs mod verdensherredømmet. Så bliver det spændene at se, om surftown kan ordne problemet før mig.

Måske skulle jeg bruge hogwash i min blog beskrivelse? Hvis jeg nu skal lave den engelsk engang jo.
