Spring Cleaning (a.k.a. It's All Gone Soon Enough!)

So, it's a new day. I'm off big companies (at least for now) and working in our very own Secret Exit Games. Our aim is to do cool games or go bust, I'm currently an art director, graphics slave, resident musician and sound guy, parts of a game designer and a level designer. Let's see what happens. Anyhoes, if someone reads this well-hidden piece of tabloid journalism, I'm really sorry I haven't been updating.

In other related but SURPRISING and SHOCKING news, I hate polyfonken dot com. I'm pretty adept at creating static sites that have a bit of everything I put out but that are more like cd-roms than Interwebs, you know. So I'm gonna fuck it up, shake it up and make it into a whole different kind of a beast. As soon as I get some time off from work :D

See, I've never been good at keeping a diary. Even worse than in keeping a clean house and i totally suck at that. But I do create a lot of stuff for one person. So the most logical thing is to make a web page built on kind of a blog thingy that I can up stuff in and when I add a new Ghost Monkey track, it'll be shown on the front page but also on www.ghost-monkey.net or the gm subpages. Right? Interesting? Nope.

Anyways, all this, the current Polyfonken, will be gone. Good riddance, I say. It's a beautiful weather outside for once, I'm gonna go there and see what happens.

Love ya as always.

Turn on your radar it's getting too dark to see

got back from paris.
loved it there.

i met nice people, walked a lot, got to spend time with the family..
and traveling just seems to fill notebooks with ideas.
it would be nice to know some french. like. some day.
anyways, i haven't been just sitting on my ass all the time

Turn on Your Radar rhythm
Trying to get through sketch


so, how's finland? frostbite on the lawn and plants and the morning haze look beautiful but don't hide the fact that it's getting downright inhospitable. still, i wish i had a proper camera so i could capture the beauty of it all. while there's still light.

in the future i should look for ways to make really cheap signs,
propel stencil and mixed media works.
prints for sale somewhere

umm. and
oh yeah, i need money too, guess i should start looking for something good to do about that. maybe i should stop doing pixels, i've been earning my living off the little fuckers for almost a decade!

My Vanity Blog

just a couple of links to brighten up your day:

Take-G: Wooden robots from Japan. So damn cute. If I ever produce little bastards they will have those to break ... in case I get filthy rich, that is.
Flickrvision: is almost as addictive as slickr the screensaver. Sometimes it's fun just to watch what people from all over the world are posting to flickr.
Pterodactyl porn (on youtube): This is the only porn film I'd want for myself, solely for the reason that it makes me laugh my ass off. Seriously, pterodactyl porn? What the hell were these people thinking of?
Jamming the Blues (1944): A really good live session / documentary that should make even the most stringent jazz haters come around. Just watch how happy these people are playing together.

Nina Simone loves me

all of this would be much easier

i can already breathe
and scowl

nyrki called mine a jack bauer -morning
get up, brush my teeth, get dressed
all in the space of two minutes
"and five minutes from waking up he's
already in a chopper"
i should probably get bigger headphones
i could blast myself awake
before the first commercials
