| Friday, May 9, 2008 at 10:54 PM |  | Just wanted to get rid of the 6 month old announcement.
As it happens, I have so little free memory on my computer that I can't do anything with the videos I have taken with my "new" camera. Once the car is paid off (in.... 6 days!!!!!) I will be able to afford a few much-needed things like an new windshield for the car and a new computer.... oh, and paying off the credit card, the loan, getting a new back passenger door, a new bumper, another tattoo.... some of the necessities of life. |  |
| Sunday, December 9, 2007 at 8:19 AM |  | Coming soon.... IF I can finally get WMM to spit out the first video! It crashes after every single change I make to the video and then takes 20 minutes or more to open up again.
"The Dream Cycles". a series of videos based on dreams I have had. Since I tend to forget my dreams after a day or so and I have to make them out of available materials, it should be interesting to see how they turn out.... |  |
| Sunday, December 2, 2007 at 7:33 PM |  | "Friend" requests.... For anyone wanting to friend me, I thought I would give you a heads-up. If you don't have any videos, I am very unlikely to friend you. I might keep your friend request hanging about for a week or so to see if you get around to adding some videos. If you do, great. I'll have a look and may well friend you. You don't and I'll remove the request. Nothing personal but not having any videos doesn't stop you from subscribing and it doesn't stop you from commenting or messaging. It more...just means that you aren't actively making videos and that's what I am here for.
Also, if you are only uploading prank videos or anime stuff, it ain't gonna happen. Again, nothing personal, just not my cup of tea. less |  |
| Thursday, April 26, 2007 at 8:01 AM |  | In case anyone is wondering why my "Night Music" videos are called "Night Music" when many of the are filmed during the day.... Here is a little explanation about the videos. Many years ago, there used to be aa late-night program on Global (Ontario TV station) which featured music played over footage of Toronto, filmed at night from a car just driving around the city. I used to love these videos since, at that time, I couldn't drive but loved driving around at night. I found them really relaxing. more... Now that I have a car, I often go out just to drive around, sometimes at 2 or 3 in the morning, out in the country, windows rolled down, and listening to some favorite music. I decided to make some of my own videos, like the ones I used to watrch on TV so that if it isn't convenient or the weather isn't good enough to go out in the car, I can do it vicariously.
It turns out that a lot of my friends and netquaintances also enjoy the videos and that is cool.
Since I also included footage filmed during the day, it may seem rather strange that they are called "Night Music"... The title refers to the fact that I play them at night rather than their being filmed at night. "Day Music" doesn't have the same ring, anyway.
Just to confuse things further, I do have two other sets of video, "Rain Music" and "Snow Music". Those are all filmed either in the rain or in the snow. less |  |

A beautiful end to a beautiful day.... This time, no traffic blocking our view as I have added an actual tripod more...to the range of equipment (Thanks to my brother-in-law, Marc!). I can also sit in the car in comfort when needs be, as in the case this evening.
Those little (I know they look monstrous but they are actually very small) black blobs flitting about in front of the camera are Blackflies which are out in full force. Luckily, no bites were had. less Added: 6 days ago Views: 7 Category: Music |
|  | Mother's Day: Take Back the Day campaign 01:49 InterPares, a Canadian organization working with women world-wide towards peace and justice, urges us to take back the day... in this case, Mother's Day.
more...
Mother's Day was originally created as a day to bring together families and communities torn apart by the American Civil War. It's creator, Anna Maria Reeves Jarvis, and her daughter Anna Jarvis campaigned to make the celebration nationally recognised as a day of peace and justice, through a shared love of mothers -- in the name of mothers world-wide.
Sadly, as the day became more widely celebrated, the original intention was lost and commercial in tone. By 1917, Anna Jarvis was actively campaigning to have it stopped.
InterPares urges us to "Take Back The Day" by recognising and assisting women, in the name of our mothers, in achieving peace and justice in their communities and countries.

The USC, now the Canadian Unitarian Service Committee, was founded by Lotta Hitschmanova in the basement of the First Unitarian Church of Ottawa.
