#fridaypragmatism

Full album title Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends. In 2008 the world was afire with Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends. I have never been into Coldplay in any measure and swept the buzz to the side having little enthusiasm for them. I'd always said of Coldplay that…

I’m still not writing much at present, not here nor in vroenis but I’ve learned not to force it. Nevertheless for the sake of the exercise, Friday Pragmatism must live on! Some notes on Mirror’s Edge which I’m yet to complete, but I feel have played enough of to give a fair assessment. I know&hel...

I'm not so inspired to write at present. One thing I've noticed is that overall when I'm well, I don't write so much in vroenis and nav gets the lion's share of attention. When the Strangeness is in full force I tend to write brief abstract works here with the bulk of activity happening in…

It's been a turbulent week. In some ways I'm exhausted, in others inspired. Nevertheless my already irregular sleeping pattern has this week been even more-so, and I am quite tired - not so much physically although there is certainly a natural component to it. Today I don't feel I have the energy...

I do not celebrate my birthday in any way. My parents for reasons known only to them, don't seem to be able to let the occasion pass without some kind of action marking it, and while for me I'd rather celebrate my mother's efforts on the day seeing as my involvement more-or-less consisted of just...

I'm at my sister's using her gear. It's good gear, but in the past I have failed to successfully post entries and have lost them. Because of that I have chosen a subject on which I hope I can be brief. Things moving backwards was actually a slightly different topic of discussion on Tuesday night&...

I've just come back from the most wonderful drive with my parents out in (slightly) rural Victoria. Great music, great company, great roads, spectacular weather; all in all a wonderful day of touring. For those familiar with Victoria, the rout we took today was; Up the Hume Highway to Kilmore. We...

Here are some of the films I've watched this year, or perhaps the ones I remember watching. They're not in a strict, regimented order of sorts; Benjamin Button was probably the first film I saw in theatres in January this year, and then thing more-or-less progress towards my most treasured experi...

To make up for two weeks missing Friday Pragmatism, I'll write a little something about my listening habits this year. Courtesy of last.fm, members are able to chart their listening habits through the player of their choice. It can be an interesting tool for finding new artists and strangers with...

I will be brief. I have been ill and am now recovered. Such is the cycle and I am beginning to identify its patterns, however such knowledge does not make it any less exhausting. When ill, I place an embargo on my public writing, I've done so several times before. This diary continues to be…
