The Eclectic: April 2011

If I didn't define myself for myself, I would be crunched into other people's fantasies for me and eaten alive." -Audre Lorde. Thursday, April 28, 2011. As if it weren't all verified before he became a serious candidate. As if he owed these birthers something. As if. A Black man could not attain that level of power without it being part of some deep-seated conspiracy to change the America "we know and love.". In the words of @JamilSmith. Fuckin really, America? I'm too disgusted to finish. Part two w...

Friday, October 19, 2012. Today's post is about mixing. I like it. How can you tell if mixing is for you? If you don't mind hearing the same song 250 million times, then mixing might be your dream job. I'm mixing a song called "Holding Nothing Back" by a Christian Rock group by the name of Damascus Road. They're a pretty talented bunch. I enjoy time in the studio with them. Here's a photo of my mixing screen:. Don't blame Texas for Ted Cruz, we thought he was Canadian. Student Media Festival Winners.

Randomosity by BluAssassin: Chroma Keying
http://bluassassin.blogspot.com/2012/10/chroma-keying.html
Friday, October 5, 2012. Soooo, I had to choose a project for class and I decided I wanted to learn how to chroma key. I'm not really sure what I was thinking. It's obvious that I had no idea what a pain it would be. The thing I hate to do the most is shoot video. If I never have to touch a video camera again in life I will be OK. Yet, when I learned how chroma keying is done, I wasn't deterred. Now that I know how to chroma key, I don't think I will have a reason to use it. LOL. Eat, Seek, and Be Merry.

Friday, August 31, 2012. Every family has one; the one person who has talent worthy of recognition. Not just the one who can sing at family reunions or the one who can cook their a$ off. The one who becomes a professional singer or becomes a professional chef. We have many talented people in our family with talents that range from the performing arts to business management. But our family legend took his talent and made it a family business. Paul Lawrence Dunbar Kelly is our family legend. Whenever we hi...

Friday, September 21, 2012. Using Apple Loops in GarageBand. So, I had to do a project for a class. Any project. Anything that would teach me something new. Well, if you know anything about me, you know I’m an over-achiever. So what project did I choose? As the title tells you, I decided to create a track using Apple Loops in GarageBand on my Mac. I had never created a track in my entire life. I thought it would be fairly easy, but umm errr…. How long should the track be? Links to this post. Don't blame ...
