Aging Like Fine Wine

I have been going through a lot of my old tracks that I made since 03', and found that I've been ignoring some amazing sounds. Due to the limited(free) space from my podcasting service, I have reached a head and can't add any songs. I am(have) created a new name and account to remedy this problem. One Finger Player is the artist name for the new podcasts, which will contain new as well as remixes I did from Nine Inch Nails to Gene Simmons. I'm in the process of putting it up on the itunes music store..

Besides that Programming, Class and Photography have been taking up most of my time! Which is weird in a good way, because i feel as if I could go either way now (Music production, Photography, Web Authoring, Programming, Apple Tech, Writing). At 30, I guess I could be in worst times in my life, lol

Learning How To Read

The ability to be able read a musical composition is a skill that a lot of people dont have. This is not a diss to them as musicians or anything against the strength of their music, but it is a necessary skill to learn. I have embarked on this journal (again)....indirectly, due to a class i'm taking called MACROMUSIC.

Update:I finally got done with Finale, not before being humiliated and belittled in front of the whole class. There's always one asshole that tries to pull your card! But, I didn't give up and beat my way through it and because of it i have a deeper understanding of how music is composed.

Apple's Lisa Computer Demo

Filmed in 1984, Alfred demonstrates the $10,000 Apple Lisa computer on a tri-state cable channel. This was a very early 'mass introduction' to a system that had a graphical user interface, icons, pull down menus, and a rodential input device called 'a mouse.' Enjoy! - Alfred

This is how I'm spending my break from school......working on Macs, creating new songs and beating my head against the wall!

Fall Semester 06' Coming to a Close

This has been one the hardest semesters I've ever had since I started going to Cleveland State University. Presentations to Let downs and everything in between. I have advanced mentally and I am also a bonafied 30-something. I have had a lot of struggles, struggles to not give up and go home, struggling not to listen to people pushing me and disrespecting me and struggles with low self-esteem. But through it all I came out swinging and I still havent given up the fight!!!!!!! fuck that shit, I want to do something important with my life and the only way i know how to do that is to keep it moving!!!!!! keep moving forward, even when others dont want to.

Elizabeth Catlett - Art Just Not For Art Sake 1

Sharecopper

I am researching a paper for my African American Literature class and I came across an artist that I find very aesthetically pleasing and very talented but, for some reason or another, had never heard of in high school. Elizabeth Catlett, an African American sculptress and printmaker during the 1960s and 1970s black arts movement. I felt a connection with the images, black artists are treated as jokes in the mainstream, but one looks at these works and the art of suppression comes to mind. I don't think it's suppressed because it sux but because it's showing black people in a positive light and is contrary to popular opinions. Whatever the case, I enjoyed the images and am planning looking into the black arts movement even deeper now for guidance!
