How to build in Minecraft through an artistic lense Hi! In this blog post I will walk you through my process of building in Minecraft. In recent months I have been enjoying playing again and have started to practice my skills quite a bit and I wanted to share what I have learned so far, as to inspire and hopefully guide. I wouldn't consider this a how to explanation, since it is more of a thought…
Dawn Notes no.78 Welcome back to the lamppost. I am writing this morning again. I am officially done with my university work and I will graduate shortly. This means that I have some time now to rest and maybe do some interesting things that I have been putting off. For example, I have been recording and putting up videos of me playing Lethal Company with my friends. A sort of digital archive of…
Dawn Notes no.77 Waiting for the horizon to break. Today I went to the local record store, which is also a great bookshop, where they were celebrating RSD. There was a band playing some decent music, but I was there on a mission. If you saw my previous post you know that there is new Boards of Canada happening right now, so I went to meticulously search every rack of vinyls to see if any secret…
DawnNotes no.76 A little light in the dark. Or is the light in the darkness. So yesterday yielded a very unexpected surprise. I haven't mentioned it here but one of my favorite music makers of all time are the duo Boards of Canada. And they, after 13 years, have released a new single, if I may call it that!!! You can find it on their youtube channel ! It is the most pleasant surprise for me,…
Dawn Notes no.75 Gulpen should really make this castle into a community space. This morning I was thinking about how much of my free time during commutes or while working I listen to some form of information. The least offensive form would be music. That is just pleasurable and nice and often can lead to me thinking and reflecting in a tender human manor. But a form that often permeates my daily…
Dawn Notes no.74 This morning's sky. I have returned from an unannounced break. I slept a lot and feel quite rejuvenated, and had a great time with my girlfriend and her family. I consciously noted that I won't worry about posting the blog on those days, since as you saw or can see, I wasn't really writing anything anymore. Most of my posts turned into just two sentences WITHOUT A PICTURE.…
Dawn Notes no.73 I am tired. No energy to work at all. But I have made some progress on my senior project.
Dawn Notes no.72 Not much to update today, I played minecraft yesterday.
Dawn Notes no.71 Hi, I will try to implement the system I talked about yesterday. I need to get my uni work done, so it seems like an easy way to keep on top of doing what I am supposed to do. I will update you tomorrow on how it went!
That is a question everyone ponders often, I believe. Maybe not consciously, but definitely somewhere along the way. I have been stuck in this kind of mindset for a while, and it is probably because I am graduating soon and I don't plan on studying more for a year or maybe ever, in the context of a university that is. I am going to be moving in with my girlfriend in Latvia, my home country, and…
