Passing Thoughts

The view from Milo's bedroom window.

I've been busy as you can no doubt tell from the lack of entries. I've also been fairly drained as well - I'm working on our wireless stuff at work (which means I get an ever so cool bluetooth iPaq to play with) and there has been a bit of a learning curve. I am fairly on top of it now - its had the sad side effect that I'm learning html. The code and links for the image above where typed in raw and worked first time. Eeek!

I've been writing a lot - I am putting together a collection of poems - all new. Rather than publishing them one at a time I am going to collect them up - not sure how I am going to release them yet - a pdf is the obvious choice but part of me is wondering if its worth touting them round a few publishers first. I'll see how I feel when the collection is a lot more substantial. Not much music - I've a couple of things that need mixing down but they are more sketches than finished pieces - I need to sit down and do some work on them.

Haven't really had much time to read - I've just started on "The Science of the Diskworld" which is excellent - rather than being a crap science book that tries to explain the stuff that happens in the diskworld instead it uses the diskworld as a venue for thought experiments and alternate view points to our own science - so far its most excellent.

Cd's of the moment are Alice by Tom Waits - truly excellent piece of work and a very late new entry (I got it today): Camphor by David Sylvian which despite being a compilation is full of new mixes and material (which is great for someone like me who has most everything Sylvian has released over the years).
