More Converge, more betterer! Certainly one of my favourite discoveries in recent years. While I enjoy everyone here, it’s again Ben Koller’s drumming and Nate Newton’s bass playing that fascinate me most. Just listen to that groovy drum rhythm, together with the rather calm bass in “All we love we leave behind”, or this insane drum fill in “Veins and Veils” (again, with a great bass riff). Putting a ride symbol in there like this makes me absolutely addicted, and makes me happy for days.

In the middle ground, there are Gothic buildings in the city of Edinburgh with several turrets and towers, including a University of Edinburgh building.

As a technical writer, I ask myself a lot of questions as I prepare material. Who is the audience for the document I am writing? What can I reasonably assume they already know? Given that, what background do I need to include? What do I need to explain? What words can I use t...

I would like to read a book today! I said to myself with enthusiasm this morning. I used to read every Saturday morning, but as I started visiting more museums I stopped reading as much. I had the same feeling that I felt last week when I was inspired to write: I really want ...

I want to make the most of the sunshine, I thought to myself as I contemplated going on a second walk. I went for a walk earlier today to get groceries. All walks bring my mind space, but meandering on a favourite path feels more conducive to letting my mind wander. I venture...

I have had the question “what is the blog equivalent of a mashup?” in the back of my head for a while. Joe’s most recent blog post, “Return to Mashups”, further has me thinking about this question. What does it mean for a blog post – or an entire blog – to be a mashup? My thi...
