There's a complete domain redesign in the works right now, every page will get a new look (which you can preview in the above presentation), and everything is expected to go live in a couple weeks' time.

Update 7:43pm: I've upgraded MT to version 3.35 and reintroduced commenting in light of the more powerful anti-spam system it's offering, so do post something, if anything, just to test it out. I know there's an ugly template here right now, but it's necessary for the new elements like tags to kick in first; I'll be designing a new layout around this and it'll be pushed out together with the rest of the site's new pages.

It was a mind-blowing show last night, Copeland's set was simply beautiful, and Anberlin couldn't have been more contrasting, totally rocking out the Glass Pavillion of Far East Square. The prepubescent scenesters were a slight turnoff, but props to everyone who had a part to play in organising the gig.

If you're wondering, the blank space that was seen here for the past couple of weeks was no bug at all, it's just how it's supposed to be since I set MovableType up to only display entries of the last 30 days. Unexpectedly cool though, how it fits so well into the name I've given this site.

I guess something happened to warrant my stoppage of posting for the entire month of May, or rather, many things happened - life happened.

There's nothing much to say really, with regards to this site, I'm still figuring out the new direction to take it towards, mostly the idea's to get it sounding more professional and structured; less chaotic and personal - not in the sense of tone, but of whatever-I-did-today-and-why-I-was-so-pissed posts. Well that's probably not news since I've been been taking to such a stance for the past year or so, but I just want to totally cut off the overtly emotional, pretensive waxing lyrical shit to get some credibility around here. I reckon given the nature of this medium, not everyone needs or wants this honesty.

Nothing much to say about life either, it just doesn't feel very different even as I move into my third decade. Still pretty torn over choices, or the lack of choices, in further education, been in and out of numerous stages of depression, defeatism, skepticism and ineptitude due partly to that. But I'm going to refrain from writing more about it for reasons listed in the previous paragraph.

Work, well technically what I'm enlisted to do is work, still pretty much sucks, but at least it's coming down to six months by the end of this week. Broken promises, unpleasant surprises, unjustifiable injustice, prevailing discordance. What's new really? But it represents all this pent up anger so I'm really not going to try if there's no way I can talk about it without a hint of belligerence?

I guess that pretty much leaves Art in a safe corner. Depending on how you want to look at it. I will certainly post some when I do feel like it, but for now there's really nothing, unsurprisingly also due to what I've been going through. And frankly, I'm too damn excited about the Anberlin+Copeland gig tonight so until that time when I actually have meaningful thoughts to share, God bless everyone.
