Restyled this page a bit:

• Moved the “about” pages to the header
• You can now find “social shortcuts” on the top right in the header
• Latest “tweet” is on the right

My latest project is on-line:

Kunstroute Kralingen-Crooswijk 2009, more than 50 artist show their work on 3 and 4 October in Kralingen and Crooswijk, Rotterdam), go check out the site if you like.

look at her site for more info and pictures

All the necessary things have been arranged, so preparations for the 14th of December are nearly finished. Carola had her wedding shower last week! Check out some of the photographs.

We will have a very globalized wedding (it will take yeaaaars of biking to work to offset the carbon emissions):

• The bride is from Perú
• The groom is from Fryslân
• One of the witnesses will fly in from Canada
• Another witness will fly in from The United Kingdom
• Yet another witness is from Perú
• The photographer was born in Korea
• and on top of that, the person who will marry us is from Suriname!

A looong time since I’ve posted something here. Lots of changes in my life the last few months.

And more are coming! For instance, Carola and me have decided to spend the rest of our lives together!

To find out more about what this all means you can visit the official wedding page.

I’ve recently started playing around in Fedora 7 (the 64-bit version).
One of the ‘problems’ was getting it to support all the buttons on my Logitech MX Revolution.
However, Olli Salonen has created a nifty utility called btnx

To install:

$ sudo /sbin/modprobe uinput
$ wget http://www.ollisalonen.com/btnx-0.2.11.tar.gz
$ tar -xvvf btnx-0.2.11.tar.gz
$ cd btnx-0.2.11
$ make
$ sudo make install


after that you can sudo ./btnx to start using it.

Thank you mr. Aronofsky! The Fountain is one Shibalba of a movie. I’m still shaking.

Other highly recommended movies: Paprika, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, Pure Hearts, Special, The Tripper (Reagan vs. Hippies!).

And if you have a strong stomach or if you are not entirely sure about the perversion of (some of) the Japanese:Strange Circus. It gives Ichi the Killer a run for its money in freakiness.

Just before heading of to Amsterdam for the AFFF where I will be watching:
4Th Dimension, Offscreen, Special, Tripper, Strange Circus on saturday and
Pure Hearts, Girl Who Leapt Through Time, The Fountain, Backwoods and Paprika on sunday.

And hopefully be eating at: Wagamama

[drumroll]

My latest project is finished! Check it out at JiP Photography.

Wow, time flies when you are having a lot of fun!

To celebrate this moment, the forces of nature have decided to darken the moon!

It was way too clouded in my hometown to watch it, but I followed it on http://www.astro.uu.nl/~sluys/Hemel/moon/lunareclipse_20070304.html

I’m in the process of converting the old page to Wordpress. Just have some finishing touches to do. Their 5 minute install promise proved to be very true. It’s really (some would say ‘recontra’) easy to install.
