Understanding Women, Part 2.

    “When you rule the world, I want to be in charge of the advertising of your government.” It's how it started. I was not planning on writing. I was rather fascinated by how gracefully she counted certain amount of money to finally call her day off. 


    “With all this money?” she answered, turning her hand and looking at the money. “Or you mean that we women are going to rule the world one day?”


    Two years ago, on the third day of January of 2008, I published “Understanding Woman: Part One”, which you've likely read already if you visit this site. It's had at least two revisions in those two years, but nothing major was added. I knew that something had to be added, and it's why I left it where it stands. I still stand by the ideas, but by then I had a crush, a relationship that influenced on my overall view. I still had not learned to question my thoughts on the subject.

Dead Serious

Being dead serious about something stupid and recognizing it does not mean that you've lost your mind,  it means that the child within you wants to end a chapter and finally go into hibernation.

If you know me, follow me on Last.FM or any other profile, then you probably know I have a thing fro female-fronted music. There's something exciting yet calming about it; from a capella (yes, it's written separated) to symphonic metal.

Women are able to (besides all things they do and deal with) put beauty into effort and dedication into beauty. It's like if they worked art even on the simplest of things.

Women are artists by default (in one way or another) and, being an art lover, I must appreciate women.

I'm frequently checking out what's new on Jamendo ever since I discovered Sean Fournier, who has turned to be one of my favorite independent artists.  On my visit today, I found two jewels.

One of the jewels found today on Jamendo is Hungry Lucy's Pulse Of The Earth, a Creative Commons-licensed album. Beautiful work. (track and artwork below). You can download the entire album for free on Jamendo by following this link.

Next is Kendra Springer, she is a pianist and currently holds the #1 spot on the most played tracks list with "Hope" which is also the album title. It's one of the most beautiful I've ever heard. It's also a Creative Commons-licensed album.

Since both of the album licenses permit sharing as long as it's not commercial and I give attribution, I'm going to share two of the songs I like the most with you.  You can download the full albums on Jamendo.

Linux for designers: Abstract?

Hey guys, here's my first youtube tutorial.

Here's how to make an image similar to the ones on my "Abstract?" post.
Rate and comment.

 

I Support Adobe...

And it's the reason why I've placed the new ad they launched against Apple on the sidebar. If you can't see it's not because you're on an iPad. It's because I've placed it on my Posterous and Blogger pages. I haven't placed it yet on Wordpress or Tumblr.

Now, Adobe... Will you PLEASE port your stuff to Linux and make a DEB packages for Ubuntu?

Later,
C.


 

Abstract?

So these two have no name, since I wasn't really intending to make them,
so for now they'll just be named "Abstract 1?" and "Abstract 2?", yes,
with the question mark included.

Tools used:
The GIMP
IOGraph Mouse movement capturing software.

Made under Ubuntu 10.04

Enjoy.

Later,
C.

Oh spam! you must know us so well...

And this, people of America, is why spam blockers were invented. Cause
we're so broke that we've gotten ourselves into R01ex watches, Canadian
drugs and Penis enlargement.
