Welcome to my personal homepage, as the header suggests, this is really just a culmination of various aspects of my life, some things I am proud of, others not as much. It’s a blog, WIP, and an uncultivated digital garden of snippets, interesting links, pictures, things that have inspired me, hobbies, projects, key moments, travel, work, and nostalgic lists of material, and immaterial things that have made me who I am.

90’s No Fear

paschmann

I was recently fed a pretty nostalgic video on Youtube about No Fear, its history – and the rise and fall of the company in the 90’s. It was a brand I really resonated with. I had a bunch of the all black posters on my walls and although I wasn’t particularly extreme, a lot of the sports and interests I had were.

Bodyboarding, Motocross, Skateboarding were not the type of sports on the list to pick from at Selborne College. The brand resonated with me because it was edgy, a little off beat and had some rebellion in it – When looking back the slogans do have a touch of “cliche” or cheese in them, but they made the 13 year old me think long and hard about life, and any distraction from school work was easy to justify 🙂

After watching the documentary I spent some time scouring the web and found a few of the posters/slogans which I remembered. Fun times. read more

Maurits Cornelis Escher

One of my favorite artists and mathematicians … When I was 12 or 13, I came across one of his books in the Stirling Primary library. The cover was intriguing and images such as the ones below, really caught my attention. The realism, perspective and the unique perspectives had my attention for quite a few years until I started to shift towards futurism and interest in virtual reality.

I also admired his monogram – MCE and strangely enough have addressed birthday cards this way ever since learning about his art.

Elvis BMW 507

A couple of years ago while on a work trip to Germany, I flew in and out of Munich (versus the usual Frankfurt) due to flight costs. I gave myself an extra day to explore Munich on the way out, and amongst a few other attractions, visited the BMW Museum. One of the cars on display was Elvis’ 507 Roadster which had been restored and was absolutely mint. I did some digging on the car and its history and this video is nice to see with the context behind the project.

Back to video editing …

It’s been a while since I edit any “home video” editing, but Ella, Charlotte and I decided it would be nice if we put some videos together for their Volleyball social media accounts. I have been using Adobe Premier Pro and After Effects to create the videos below so far.
