Guild Thoughts

I was looking for a Screen Designers Guild online, just to see if such a thing existed. Nope! The idea of having an alliance of like-minded screen artisans is appealing, and it seems less egotistical than having something like "David Seah and Associates". On the other hand, shying away from self-promotion doesn't do me any favors either.

On the other hand, at this stage it's more important to find independent individuals who share a similar goal: to create meaningful artifacts (digital or otherwise) of lasting quality and purpose. I've come to realize I have more of an artisan philosophy toward creating things, though I seem to lack the actual impulse to create in isolation.

That said, I just realized that the most effective way to create that impulse is to inject myself back into a place where the demands are immediate rather than words in a blog.

Procrastination

This animation accurately and eerily captures my own internal monologue when I'm procrastinatin'. Fantastically on the mark...brilliant! Via BoingBoing.

Happy New Year to Me!

Yup, it's my birthday! Just spending a quiet evening at home with Dad. I got some nice virtual b-day cards, and even got a virtual birthday cake from my sister.

This year's resolutions:

1. Build a new creative network.
2. Develop an original concept into a project.
3. Maintain momentum.
