Ok, seems like I might be back. I've finally found some stability, some spare time, some inspiration, a reliable broadband... and most importantly a release of Apophysis 7X that runs on my machine without a glitch! Older releases have been a nightmare of crashes and deadlocks (no fault of their own, it's my pc that's a piece of junk) and being stuck with the old (also fairly unstable) 2.09 and 3D Hack felt more and more like running the Paris-Dakar on a pogo stick.

I reckon I'll be hanging around the Aposhack a lot and tweak like there's no tomorrow for the time being, at least until I've caught up with the hundreds of new plugins and techniques released while I was away.

Feels good to be back, only by being on dA again do I realise how much I've missed all this.

Peace :)

Leaving this as a permament note to all my friends, visitors and stalkers: I am NOT dead. Billions thanks and zillions apologies for all the unreplied/unreturned/unrequited messages, faves and devWatches... guess nobody needs to hear me moan once again about not having enough time and so on. Worse still, just to think of how much good stuff I'm missing out on... That said, I'll keep coming back every so often, if not as addictively as I used to. I'm getting more and more into photography lately, but I'll also do my best to throw in the odd piece of fractal eye-ache whenever I can. And of course I'll be watching you all.

Peace, and thanks again.

New Job Soon?

2 min read
Six weeks since the last post, during which I haven't been up to much honestly aside from the usual bustle of London life.

Taken lots of pictures, spent probably more than was advisable on pints and food, and managed not to attend the dA London Meeting while still being in a quarter of a mile radius from the meeting itself :P

In major news, after a few (utterly frustrating) months during which entry level scientific jobs seemed to have been credit-crunched into ending up like the Dodo, I've suddenly found myself with THREE open positions as Editorial Assistant at scientific publishing houses in London - i.e., the entry level gateway to my dream career in my dream city.

Working at the coffee store has been a nice holiday (or well-deserved break from last year's stress) and a badly needed social confidence boot camp (erm, leaving alone the whole "need to pay my bills in gloomy times" line)... but as all good holidays (and boot camps) must end sometime, the timing couldn't have been any more perfect than this.

So, applications revised, revised again and sent. Anyone fancies joining in the finger-crossing party?

Spring moods

1 min read
Spring time in London is nothing short of amazing. Or perhaps I've just stumbled upon some impredictable, lucky combination of good weather and high moods on what is - incidentally - my first spring ever in this place. Either way, everything seems to be blooming or buzzing with life and the odd blend of smells the breeze carries along - flowers & spices & tobacco & exhaust & stuff - is enough to keep me high and intoxicated 24/7.
If this whole pig flu thing is actually going to be as bad as the media are selling it, i just can not think of a better time and place to face Armageddon with a defiant sneer.

(Yes, it's Friday night and I'm fairly drunk & rambling)

... over the two months or so since I last logged in here, I have had the most weird birthday ever (btw, thanks everyone who left wishes and stuff :heart:), worked like a slave and enjoyed it, been on holiday to Italy and survived chicken pox with nothing worse than a few (hopefully temporary) face scars.

Plus the usual day to day stuff, not really worth mentioning.

Hope I'll be back soon, meanwhile, as usual - have fun & take care :)
