Creativity from the masters themselves.

Filed under: Inspiration, Thoughts — Tags: , , , — vivek @ 3:13 pm

After one of my previous posts where i reposted a original, i was in a frame of mind where i would avoid having to repost topics or link back to original posts again. But with posts like the one i am talking about below, i just cant pass off the chance to have these contents in my blog. So here it is.

Every time i am done with any one of sample works i tend to compare it with what i have seen till now and critique the work with respect to them and as always i end up not being overly happy with my work. But i have come to accept it, and that it takes time and patience to reach a particular level of professionalism.

As usual i was going through the list of rss feeds i have subscribed to, and saw the below post at smashing magazine. I just got another 100 odd design works and their creator, that now i can compare my work with and judge the place i stand in. Before i link to the original post, here are a few images i lifted from the site.

And Maukka shouts 3 2 1 and we are off.

Everything falls silent, there is no wind on my ear, there is no engine noise… The moment we were off the plane, i experienced a state of mind, where i could say my mind found Peace or calmness. Was it weightless for that one fleeting moment ? i don’t know, but it was something that i have not experienced - more of a “out of land experience” :-P.

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: — vivek @ 11:50 am

It’s after a long gap that i am getting my mind to focus and put a series of “THE” posts that should be in the blog.

This post is going to be all about the reasoning “Why the birds sing” and my experience in learning this concept.

June 9th, After close to one and half months of waiting, i got to go to Hanko. This is a small beach town towards the south of Helsinki. So what go me to this sleepy little town was nothing more than my urge to know why birds sing. waited one and half months to go to a sleepy town ? - was i crazy ? certainly!!

Merged Blogger and WordPress

Filed under: Thoughts — Tags: , , — vivek @ 1:28 pm

I finally decided to merge my two blogs - Blogger and WordPress - into WordPress.

I was going to the tutorials, when i noticed that WordPress allowed to import the posts from Blogger, So as a logical solution to get my posts in one place, i imported it and merged it with the newly started WordPress blog.

The biggest head ache to come out of this is, I now have to get all the posts properly tagged and categorized. And with 240 odd posts, its going to take some time or may be quite some time. Lets see.
