Ilse DeLange - The Lonely One

The latest video I produced. In the lovely surroundings of the Posbank (close to Arnhem on the Hoge Veluwe, which is a national park in the Netherlands).
It was half September and the weather would be horrible, according to the forecasts. But when you watch the video, it is clear that it was a beautiful day :)

The "Next Blog"-button...

... is really fun to press. I am amazed what people are concerned about. Mostly that is positive, but I am a little scared by the amount of extremist Christian Blogs I see around (and Arabic Blogs I cannot read, so possibly those house a lot of extremist stuff too...)

LAN promo Dizkartes 2003

Jawel jonkies. Vroeger toen alles beter was en de crew al maanden van te voren begon met full colour posters op de kroeg, full colour advertenties op de site en uiteraard - de macht van goed doordachte spam mag niet worden onderschat - veel, nee HEEL VEEL mail naar iedereen die op de LAN mailinglist stond...
Resulterende in de grootste LAN ooit met 40 man... was wel enigszins aan de warme kant in de benedenbar, maar daat mocht de pret niet drukken. Grootse battles in Battlefield Vietnam met 18 tegen 18 (volgens mij was het Vietnam al, want in 1942 kon niemand vliegen behalve Dave aka. Mariachi). Misschien haal ik wat nostalgische dingetjes door elkaar, dat boeit geen reet natuurlijk.

Check eerst maar even een paar van die mooie postertjes uit het verleden. Allemaal heerlijk onleesbaar, slecht van layout en al dat soort dingen.. maar toch. Het werkte.

Recently I clicked on the "Music" tab in the Banshee player and clicked some more. Then I installed a program, called Last.fm. Check out their website (or read below what they think it is).

Homo Fabre in the Museum of Schone Kunsten in Antwerp

The idea of the exhibition was to create a different way to experience the Old Masters in combination with contemporary art and the vision of Jan Fabre.

The first piece I walked into - below - actually shocked me a bit. I was not paying attention, turned around and thought: my god! there is a guy standing with his face pushed against a painting! Then I noticed the blood and realized it was art...

The second piece shown here, was situated in a room with dim light and dead animals hanging from the ceiling over butter (imagine the butter lying right under the animal on the floor).

The long dining table set up with the heads of owls made quite an impression. It gave me the idea of chopped of human heads which were put on plates in a (distant?) past to shock people.

The last piece shown here was the body of a man made up from thumbtacks.

YouTube - Don Diablo - I Need To Know

One of the latest musicvid's I made :) Like the tunes, probably a bit too 'underground' for most people.
