Recording Label

September 22nd, 2007

So seeing as the record industry is pretty lame, I am going to attempt to start my own, personal record label.

I was using “The Robot Within” as a pseudo-record label, but now I think its time to try it for real. More real. Can you even be real these days? What with all the atom-rearrangements and cellular data-forging…

The first release has already been chosen from my ever-growing library of noise and is en route to be finalized.
Welcome, Artomaton Records.

Back in Business

September 14th, 2007

Recently came off a 3 month “experiment” of zero internet connectivity at home, and minimal connectivity outside of home, in an attempt to gain clarity, vision, and purpose. During this period of minimalism, I spent a large chunk of time learning new skills, rekindling old hobbies, and building on my art practice.
I am actualizing a very creative future. And one with robots as our overlords… you know, typical day dream material…

And now a message from my RoR host

August 7th, 2006

Matt,

Seafaring is in major trouble and we’re pulling all clients off it. I wish I had better news. To take care of you we’d like to open an account for you in a new datacenter (Dallas) on a faster and more reliable server. Please see below for the account details.

We’ll keep you posted on the status of Seafaring.

Goodbye Typo, Hello Wordpress

August 6th, 2006

Now powered again by Wordpress, because it is a familiar backend.

Damn script kiddies.

Typo backend

July 15th, 2006

So I decided to wet my Ruby on Rails appetite by running the RoR backend Typo.
In order to do this I had to deviate from my normal webhost, indieos.com, because they do not have Ruby on Rails installed on their servers.

So for my RoR hosting needs, I turned to hostingrails.com. The only downside to this is that Hosting Rails only lets you run production level Rails apps.

Luckily, Typo runs in production mode, with no noticeable bugs.

That said, please let me know if you notice anything funky.

Silk shirts do not apply…

Business Cards!

July 15th, 2006

I finally decided to bite the bullet and make business cards. I picked Overnightprints.com based on my experience with them on a previous client’s cards.

Next, tee-shirts?
