Ok the word "social" at my uni means a gathering of people from the same society, subject or class. At this gathering we are supposed to socialise and get to know each other but it normally doest get more inventive than going on a pub crawl or an outing of some sort that ends or starts with beverages :P Anyway my subject appear to be the only one that hadn't did this yet. It was nice to get together though, we went to our local, Its called the monkeys forehead I headed back a little early, t-total to catch up on the reading for the lecture the next morning. I feel like i'm finally really settling in here :) Ive been out Monday Tuesday and Wednesday and gotten in bed for around one for 9am lectures the next day, I ve been feeling a little anti-socail for a couple of weeks so I think this makes up for it :P

I joined the photography society, I went to the social gathering on Wednesday night, it consisted of a pub crawl with ten disposable cameras which we used sandpaper, Vaseline, paints and fire on the lenses. I cant wait to see how they turned out :)...

Hey everyone!
I just wanted you to be the the first to know that I have created a additional blog dedicated to music video analysis. It all about the art and and the ideas behind the concept of music videos.
It doesnt really have any post yet, but I have a couple videos in mind I want to analyse. Have you got any suggestions?
Hopes its sunny where you are!
P.S If you have heard Drake - "I get lonely too" and thinks its new *shakes head* :/ Hello! The Original
Days have been a complete blur to me, since I got here.
The course I am studying s media Arts. The first year consists on 50% theory - Critical Theory and Film & Television History and 50% Practial. The course is for people that want to go in into the production in or directing part of the media. Id love to produce or Direct or write even, Im still not sure.
The course has be quite intriguing so far, Ive learned how cinema was invented, it sort of developed from photography and inventors, even Tomas edison. It wasnt an art it was just science, but when all this became part of public entertainmet media, it developed in to an art.
Hopefully I wiil be going to see the Muybridge exabition at Tate Britain. Eadweard J. Muybridge (9 April 1830 – 8 May 1904) was an Englishphotographer who spent much of his life in the United States. He is known for his pioneering work on animal locomotion which used multiple cameras to capture motion, and his zoopraxiscope, a device for projecting motion pictures that pre-dated the flexible perforated film strip. (wiki :P)
Muybrige sort of took photography, made it into animation and produced he motion picture - film
