I can feel a change in the air
I've been giving this a lot of thought lately and I've decided to put an end to "The Journal of the One Man Revolution" at least in it's current incarnation. I haven't done anything with this blog that I had intended when I moved off of Live Journal. That's not to say I've done nothing I set out to. Since starting this blog I've gone on to do wonderful stuff at The Christian Radical Blog and my spiritual life is far from being at a stand still.
I guess that the thing is that I'm not much of a personal blogger. I don't use this as an actual journal and I rarely keep one on paper I have hangups about recording long pieces of my life in that way which I'll spare you. Also as you know I've gone from occasionally ranting about my life to constantly ranting about synth gear, electronic music and wanting more synth gear.
I'm nearing a personal goal of having the money to buy something modular for my rig and what I hope will begin a long but exciting process not only of accumulating new modules to create a truly portable and extremly versatile synth of my own but also to compliment the mini studio I've started in my room.
I've also become aware of how little time I've been devoting to other things in my life, specifically my guitar. When I began to learn subtractive synthesis and the MS20 I hoped to integrate the two disciplines but in the past few months synthesis has overtaken my guitar to the point where I need to devote a lot of time to get back what I've started to loose both in calluses and in practice.
Also Sumer is here and that means busking is possible and I want to do it.
This I suppose is tangential but it has a point and the point is that with the Christian Radical in both blog and zine form taking on average an hour and a half every day and a webcomic which needs updating every day and a hankering to make musical noise and write about it I'm changing the nature, name and look of this blog very soon. I've got a name and I've got some ideas for what I hope to do with it but you can be assured that it's going to be music oriented and casualy updated, essentially when I have things to write about and things to post.
I need a couple of days to figure out how to make the requisite changes here and whether or not to change the URL as well as the title and look of the blog. We'll see soon enough. For now I'm just writing to express my intentions, I'm not sure if anyone other than my mom and occasionally a hand full of my friends read this site to begin with but in case you are a regular reader and come here one day to discover that it's no longer the same place I hope you won't be disappointed, and I hope you stick around.
The nature of every revolution is change, like a fire which takes out all the dead wood in the forest and creates nurse logs for the seedlings to be born out of. In the all consuming spirit of this one man revolution I'll be burning this old blog out with the hope of birthing something new from its ashes.
And now for some robots playing rock music
