My apologies for not updating in some time, end of the year and everything and to make matters worse I will be leaving the country in a few days time. I will be staying in Japan for a good month or so, soaking up the culture and living it up for a month. I fear that this lack of activity will continue for longer.
Plastic Beach has come to a grinding halt, a lack of motivation and a lack of inspiration I'm afraid. But don't you worry, I'm going to work on it and hopefully finish it by the end of the year. I'll probably rework some other pieces as well, such as "Pirate Jet." A shame that I'm not being paid to do these. I haven't done much with other series, but Speech has some additions in the works.
Music is great still, but I haven't really written any reviews for any of the new material I've obtained. (Not that people really give three shits about things like opinions, but hey I try anyway)
I might post a few things here, but if I do not I'll see you all in a month.

Some Kind Of Nature
The latest addition to the Plastic Beach Series, "Some Kind Of Nature". This was a fun one to do, but the idea was hard to grasp. There were a lot of ways to do this but I didn't want to make this play off the words too much by using a scene in nature (grass and trees) or personalities (happy, sad, etc.) which left me with using abstract imagery. Each different piece of the image incorporates a visualization of a different sound or beat used in the song. Everything save for Lou Reed's face that I repeated over and over. No, that's just show that this image is the song he guest-sang on for the album. Not the easiest thing to grasp from just looking at it, that's why I'm explaining it.
So, four out of fifteen out of the way, not too bad. Although ideas are getting harder and harder to come by for some reason. Hopefully my previous sketches can give me a hand of what to do next. On this note, I feel that I've run into a creative snag with everything I've been working on. Ugh. Here's for creative solutions in the future.
