“Dreams without goals are just dreams. And they ultimately fuel disappointment. Goals on the road to achievement cannot be achieved without discipline and consistency. It’s not how much you have, it’s what you do with what you have. And we all have that unique gift to go out and touch people, to affect people. Understand that gift, protect that gift, appreciate that gift, utilize that gift. Don’t abuse that gift, treasure it. You have it, you already have it.”
— Denzel Washington (via goalcast)
In order to browse and use SuperCollider help system in inverted gray colours, there are two quick hacks:
To modify internal Help system find the file /usr/local/share/SuperCollider/HelpSource/scdoc.css and add at the bottom/end of the file:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 |
body { background: #333; color: #333; -webkit-filter: invert(100%); filter: invert(100%) ; } |
If you use doc.sccode.org and a Stylish add-on in (for example) Firefox to custom-style pages, you can add a new style which is similar to the above:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml); @-moz-document domain("doc.sccode.org") { body { background: #333; color: #333; -webkit-filter: invert(100%) !important; filter: invert(100%) !important; } } |
Midst a lot of very urgent work, what does the serial procrastinator do? Creates something that is not THAT urgent to do. A videožurnal (video journal) episode, and posts it to his Patreon page!
I’ve read Amanda Palmer’s book The Art of Asking. You know she’s the most successful music artist on Patreon? Her book is a lot about her life, where’s she’s coming from and it becomes pretty clear how she ended up where she did. I have notes & quotes from reading it. And it is quite inspirational and up-to-date with exactly what’s happening now – you know: twitter, crowdfunding, kickstarter, patreon, relationship-based “economy/marketing” aka your fans are your friends etc. In this context I will reflect on this year by the end of the month too.
The end of november didn’t bring another music video/release, although I was planning it. I had a concept, I had a loose synopsis for the video, I had ideas for remixes/edits, but didn’t have anough time or stamina to push it through in time. I’m learning to accept the tempo I’m working in. And I’m happy for any cheers on this path, honestly!
Along with the plan of finding a way to conitiuously offer an insight to my studio & work, here comes another timelapse video-journal, backed-up with an older track from an album released in 2004 (Z. Spavatsky: d0).
Please enjoy. It’s a december gift to you, my friends.
