Home made music

by Sander Tams 8. September 2010 22:43

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:

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.

Starcraft 2 Teamplaying

by Sander Tams 31. July 2010 02:26

Since I don't really use this page for very serious blogging-things anymore, I might as well just tell you that I have been up to a lot of Starcraft II gaming. I've been a big fan of the first Starcraft but kind of stopped playing it when it grew really old. Besides I was never that much of a tactical genius. Now that Starcraft II is out I'm a happy collectors edition owner. Not that there's barely a difference between collectors edition and a normal one but at least I've pre-ordered it all right.

Beat the single player part already (today) and have been playing a lot with my friends. We held a release party even. One day after the release, lol.

Anyway, maybe I'll write a little about the game sometime if I feel Blizzard isn't getting too damn much attention already. Will depend very much on how busy I will be with the game though.

See? We are the number ones in our division! Wicked.

In a few days, or with a bit of luck, tomorrow, I should write something on boonbot.com too. Something with a little more content. Seems traffic there has pretty much died out, I guess it needs some serious SEO that website. But anyway, see you. And drop a line if you're playing Starcraft 2 as well.

Do you think that you can love me?

by Sander Tams 12. June 2010 07:23

Got some slightly unexpected responses from two of my friends from posting this video on facebook, so I'll just share it here as well. It's really good.

It's E.D.I.T. by Capsule, one of my new fave Japanese bands. If you liked that music video, here's another great one from the same band:

Anyway. Yesterday I signed up for Plurk. If anyone is familiar with Plurk and has an account there, go ahead and Add me. Or at least just say hi or whatever. If you don't know what plurk is, it's a Taiwan based website a la something in between Twitter and Facebook.

I also wrote more stuff on Boonbot.com. Please check out my:

I'm still alive

by Sander Tams 7. June 2010 11:53

I've noticed that traffic for this site went down a lot since I stopped posting often. Actually I've moved to another site where I do the main blogging, but it doesn't get the same amount of traffic as this site just yet. Actually traffic to this site fell more than it increased on the other one. I'm kind of sad. :(

Anyway, I've been writing about Computex 2010 that I went to recently. It was a really great show and makes me think if I might have a future in technology. Can't rule out the possibility that I will be supplying schools with all sorts of cheaper and improved alternatives to all the expensive stuff they already buy. Also think it could be fun to see if I can open up a webshop and sell eReaders or other gadgets, but I didn't have any related education in those kind of things except for Marketing and I have no money to start out with. Maybe I'll start an import webshop later in my life if I find some costumer interest in Denmark later in my life.

Anyway, have a look at my post on Computex Booth Designs:

Taipei Game Show 2010

by Sander Tams 5. February 2010 21:53

 IMG_0167

Went to the annual Taipei Game Show today. It's on from Friday 2/6 to Tuesday 2/9, so I just reached it on it's first day. A bit late though. It's open from 10 am to 6 pm. As with the book exhibition last week, I arrived at 4 pm. Too late to try stuff. But still plenty of time to locate all the booths and take pictures of loads of stuff. Took 148 photos while there, which is almost half of what my camera can contain. And that's in just 2 hours. (I make it save a raw together with a JPEG, so total size per shot is usually about 22-23 megabyte. I could cut it down to 2-3 per shot by not saving raws, should I have to snap more when I'm going back.)

In this place there's many booths and several stages for different kinds of performance. Some of them they have turnaments. At others, you can just jump up on and get a brief instruction like this guy above is, and you're in a competition of some sort, competing for freebies.
