Here’s some new music for you

Jäk

I’m always searching for new music. Sometimes i even ask you all for some advice. Well, this time the tables are turning. I’m introducing you to some new music that’s going to rock your socks off.

Jäk has finally released his long-awaited album (seriously, i’ve been waiting, and waiting). This guy is ultra-talented and ultra-creative. The art, thoughtfulness and creativity behind his music inspires me. Age of Anxiety is a beautiful and raw glimpse into life, love and relationships. It’s heart-warming and heart-breaking all at the same time. I see myself in the middle of so many of his songs.

Did i mention that Jäk has put the whole album available for download from his website… for free! www.jaknoise.com

But my personal opinion is that we should all support good music and art so be sure to donate something, even if it’s just a small amount.

I rocked this album all the way to class today and it’s playing right now while i type this post. If you have a blog, facebook, Twitter, or anything else then spread the word about this new album. New music is always a good thing.

a tough field.

The design field is a tough one right now. It’s been a few months since I began searching, and have seen very few job postings for junior/intern/beginer architects.

It leaves you in a tough position. I want to be somewhat choosy as to where I apply, so as to not just accept or work where the job is, but to work somewhere that I’m interested in [although, my once standing requirement that the office has to work on the Mac platform, I've eased up on some].

Do design fields translate within one another? I’ve been doing some graphics work and web design. Should these fields not be considered when looking at my portfolio work as an architect? Seems like they should.
