Dub FX feat. Woodnote – live drum and bass
There is something I really love about live drum and bass. It is much like a platypus – rather strange and probably shouldn’t exist. Drum and bass is computer-driven and electronic, and just about DJs and records (should you still be that way inclined), right? That’s what makes it a little bit special.

Flickr Gallery: A Sweet Plug-In
I have always wanted a gallery on my site, but until only recently I have used a CMS that wasn’t Wordpress. I have to say, Wordpress is bloody excellent With those widgets and plug-ins, it takes away everything I hated about the internet before. Sure, I could do it, but it was hard. Having to write code that I didn’t want to, and try to design shit; it would just make me angry. I have bad artistic temperament.
So, tonight I thought, “Hey! I’ll see if I can do that easily with a plug-in eh?” I found Flickr Gallery, which is so easy!
- Download
- Install to wp-content (I always forget and have to hunt for that)
- Activate plug-in in dashboard
- Enter settings, once you get a Flickr API key
- Create new page, with just nothing but the text “flickr-gallery” in square brackets
- Save!
- Look!
Man the internet is just so easy these days!

Quotes for a life
“For what it’s worth, it’s never to late, or in my case too early, to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, start whenever you want. You can change, or stay the same. There are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you, and I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.” –Benjamin Button

My Personal Way-Back Machine: Storm over Antwerp
I was talking about storms with my workmate and I told him about this crazy cloud I took a photo of when I was living in Antwerp.
