Sk8in

Here is a video of me doing some flat land tricks. I butchered the Hard-flip at the end :\ haha





























YOU CANT SHOOT ME COPPER!

i just found a video of Lethal Enforcers! Back in the days when you didnt need a story line to pull a trigger on someone (just quarters)! It sure seems the 80's and 90's had some kind of bad guy over population. All the movies and games were full of these men in suits that would keep poping up with corny catch phrases. I think thanks to the 80s we got the population under control....for now...>__>



lol, WTF is with 0:54.

Hot Games this Summer

I love Rise of Nations. This game is just awesome. I think it is the only game that you can play AND eat a ham sandwich at the same time. Its truely like you are king. Of course I do have to put my ham sandwich down when I am invading and negotiating peace treaties. I am playing a senario called "conquer the world" campaign. Its just a series of games back to back taking over each country on a map. the funny thing is that I chose the Germans. I didnt think of the irony until I got to the industrial age of the campaign, hahah. if all goes well I will get sandwiched by Russia and Allies while Im in my basement taking a cyanide capsule.


























This game however I do not like.




















I am in the white. I actually remember being at an arcade and wanting to play this game but some guy was hogging the machine with a stack of quarters. I was not as fortunate as only having 2 quarters from my Dad, so I just ended up playing Lethal Enforcers. This game is a complete mystery. There is no rhyme or reason why you end up winning a match. Some times you press attack and he punches the opposite direction, other times you press attack and he whirls in the air and kicks the guy in head and you win. Sometimes the fight will go on and on like a matrix battle and the characters will fly around the screen. Its chaos. Lethal Enforcers was much better.


More Hot Summer hits to come....

3 days after onsdag

Onsdag is the only swedish day i seem to remember, so I find myself utilizing it regardless to what day it is. Much like the Swedish word for '12' (tolv), its the only one I know too. So far the summer here is treating me a little better than last summer here. You must understand Moscow is a funny place in the summer. The population consists heavily of college students so when they are gone everything is dead. You can walk home in the middle of the street. My ankle is healed so I went back to skating in which I "skate" (as they call it in Sweden) with Kristoffer. If I mess my ankle up again, I am out of the Navy, if I dont, I can still skate. Pretty solid deal! and what I love is that I still have the girl I love, to talk to this summer :D . Heres to another Summer Babe :*
















Oh shes pretty *__*

The flu's -greatest hits-




Zielinski took the genetic sequence of a variant of hemagglutinin and created a computer algorithm to turn it into music. -CNN


You heard it from CNN! this link is a link to Stephan Zielinski's song. Which was taken from the genetic sequence of swine flu and made into music.

It seems Swine flu kills people by producing a very lengthy, repetitive, midi quality sound track in the bloodstream. I cant help but wonder what part of the strand causes the snare and tambourine to come in. I'll admit thats a nice touch and choice in instrumentation on swine flu's behalf, i mean, though the tambourine was overused in contrast to the melody, i will give it credit for being an acellular organism.


"[the song]... is a curiously melodic, innovative, somewhat soothing work." -Zielinski CNN


Woah woah, Stephen, I said it had a nice touch with the tambourine, thats it..don't give it false hopes.

Stephen you keep tinkering with music and viruses, because meanwhile, I have made my own computer algorithm to represent Swine flu...lets take a look at the output


Here is swine flu had it been Andy Warhall inspired Pop art:

Who says swine flu is a strand who randomly hits a tambourine in cheesy synth lead in Quicktime 7? No, this work shows another side to the virus, one of refined taste and post-modernism. Truely avant-garde...


This program setting shows the famous H1N1 represented as a body art piece:

(this is one of my favorites)



This program setting has virus being represented as an abstract painting:

In a world full of color, who made the assumption we are always full of color? Swine flu didnt. Some roam the earth color blind by inner turmoil and lack of satisfaction, just to strive for a higher meaning and self actualization. This representation shows us just that.




Hopefully these works can show us what this strand truley is all about, and not limiting it to a simple music composer...Zielinski!

Me Dushko And Juha had quite a run living together here, so in the middle of typing a four page paper we figured we better make a trip to Canada on friday for one of our last hang outs. We were gonna run our credit cards up so high and spread out that the banks would think they were stolen....however, the banks ended up not caring and just sent me my statement in which Im still mourning over...

So, once we got permission from 90 government officials, Dushko to revoke his citizenship, and Obama's signature, Canada was okay with having a Macedonian (Dushko) come visit for 3 days (as long as he didnt bring any fruit). The trip went through Seattle and Vancouver, CA.
Here are some pics....

Knoledge is powwer

things learned this weekend:


*Rainman really isnt that great. It ends weird and and leaves you with a very unfinished feeling. Could be I was away from the TV longer than I thought, but unfinished nonetheless.

*The RHA is serious when they say they will fine you $50 for removing the screen from your dorm window and shooting foam missiles out of it.

*a scoop of butter can look like vanilla ice cream, but tastes completely different

*global variables can be reinitialized in the scope of int main() and be considered a different place in memory so you cant edit the original global. :O

*When an Eastern European says "Im gonna throw this orange so hard at the wall its going to splatter", for god sakes cover your groin

*Did I mention be ready when an Eastern European throws a football at you indoors? same rules apply


ok!..with this bag of ice and new knowledge, Im ready for next weekend
