This weekend Vince Watson was performing live for Rockit in de Winkel van Sinkel. I made some photographs for a KindaMuzik article (Dutch). More photos on Flickr and presented in style on Slowshutter.
This afternoon I had some time to go to Scheveningen beach where kite- and windsurfers were jumping all around.
A behavioural study found out that our social habbits are changing due to third generation mobile phones (3G).
In the news article is this remarkable description: Piratopians: Creative outsiders who use 3G phones to make short films and other broadcasts
Piratopian. A what? Is this a Pirate plundering an Utopian world by taking footage in barbarian ways? Well I have made short films/broadcasts with a 3G phone. Am I a piratopian? I think I’ll have to get myself a parrot and wooden leg then.
Being young seems to be very hip these days. And even better, after years of saying that certain things are bad for you the public state of mind is changing. This weeks issues of both Time magazine and Wired open with articles respectively about the multitasking generation and the gaming generation.
Wired Guest editor is Will Wright, creator of the Sims

I like location based services. I’m not sure what to do with it, but I’m sure it will invade/expose our privacy more than social websites already do and I think it will add something new and more to mobile devices that computers can’t. The problem with LBS is that the technology is distributed. Every device and [...]
This week AP urged/forced bloggers to use ‘guidelines‘ set by AP when quoting articles. As you might expect this instantly burned all AP’s credits in the blogosphere. Why? Why? Why would AP be afraid about people copying parts of their articles and linking back? Haven’t we passed this station with newspapers before? I think there might be a [...]
Everyday I commute to work. I can choose to go by car which gives me freedom, loud music, open windows, traffic jams and parking problems. Or I can go by train which gives me time to read books, make this blog post, do some work, have my neighbor sit annoyingly on my lap and hate [...]
The web is becoming a more live medium, the medium itself isn’t changing it is how we publish to it. I think the ‘live web’ is the most exiting development since the rise of social networks. You write a Twitter notification on your mobile phone, post a picture to the web or stream a live [...]
