    Moving to London

    This may be a dumb question, but if I just turn up in the UK with an Irish passport, is that enough for getting tax/social security numbers and a bank account? Recommendations on best part of London to live without people being shot outside your bedroom window? Thanks!

    jean-pierre jeunet to direct ulysses 31?

    i just watched the city of lost children on dvd. on the filmography list, after alien resurrection (1997) it listed ulysses 31 (1999) as being directed by jeunet. i could only find one blog entry from 1998. i guess the project went bad. with barry gibb lined up, it could have been amazing...

    youtube and compression

    the amount of compression in videos i've uploaded has really started to annoy me, so i tested a load of different versions of the same video (all based around the 30fps 320x240 they suggest). xvid, divx and wmv all resulted in the same crappy results when uploaded. after reading this i...

    M-Audio PCI Sound/Midi card (on the cheap)

    M-Audio PCI card for windows/mac. Nice little upgrade for any computer to give midi and very low latency recording plus a very good A/D converter. I used to use this with cubase and little mixer to mess around with recordings. It even has coaxial in/out. I have a disc with the latest...

    fs: korg dss1 analogue hybrid synth

    "a resonant filter sweep from the DSS-1 can put all but the mightiest analog synths to shame! It's an eight-voice polysynth with two oscillators per voice, and a unison mode that allows you to stack up all 16 oscillators into one very phatt and powerful monosynth." some synth nerd this...

    MI III

    ultimate celluloid diarrhea. even the action scenes were lame. it was like they got michael j fox as the camera man. the one second cuts removed any tension and half the time you couldn't tell what was going on. philip seymour hoffman was alright, but he didn't really have any character...
