I wanted to explain my overall objective with this blog after I observed what happened for a while, but before too many of you generous readers got weirded out and left.
1.) I wanted to make something kind of minimalist. I wanted to focus on a thought by itself, or an image, or a song, or some form of expression, but I wanted singular ideas (read: puns) to be able to stand on their own and not need a whole supporting cast of fluff.
2.) I wanted to place myself in a structure that required me to create or design something every time I wanted to make a blog entry, hence all the bizarre pictures accompanying each post. I wanted to practice, but also perhaps get feedback.
3.) I wanted to extend an invitation to collaborate. It’s rough finding creative, available, people to foster great ideas and get mutual inspiration. I don’t want, in every case, someone to simply comment and leave. That’s cool, and it’s cool for a lot of my posts that are just random thoughts, but I sincerely hope that bigger ideas happen, too. So I just want to say, I’m here for those ideas that take more than one person to accomplish.
4.) I want to amuse people.
5.) I also want to be serious. I like on occasion to go more in-depth, and find it’s hard to achieve that kind of serial analysis without an audience.
6.) I want to put your stuff on my blog. If you’d like to guest blog, or if you have a link, a poem, a movie, a song or, really, anything under the sun that will fit on my server I’m game.
7.) Most of my internet activity during the day is for work or has overtones of work. So, I wanted to carve out a little place that is just about what I do for me.
I am dedicated to learning and making. I love to teach myself new things, so you'll see my early and hopefully improving design work, artwork and great ideas I've stumbled upon. I write, and will give you as much as I can critically or creatively. I'm also intent on building up collaborative greatness with anyone who sees an opportunity to invent, interpret or interject.
