I recently rediscovered one of my favorite musicians, Gavin Dunne, aka Miracle Of Sound.
.
I usually spend my listening-time on podcasts, but when I am in the mood for music, I like stuff that has lyrics worth paying attention to.
Like with visual art, there are many ways which music can inspire you when you write.
It can set you in the correct mood or mindset. Or maybe the lyrics of a song can set your mind on an idea.
About a year ago, I wrote a script for a Doctor Who comic book where the titular alien time traveler The Doctor from the BBC TV show, meets the music legend David Bowie, and then they battle robots with sick guitar jams!
I would like to invite you to join my monthly mailing list!
If you join; you will get updates on any projects in development (new and old), I’ll link to my best blog-posts for the previous month and there will even be a bit of exclusive and early content!
And for that occasion I have changed the contact email for this website from my old Hotmail account to this even hotter
new email address: contact@sindrelf.com
This is the story of how the postal-service broke my stuff, and how an internet-based startup-company made my day.
The summer of last year, I started prodding my girlfriend for information.
You see, I had gotten an idea for the perfect gift for her;
A painting of The Doctor from Doctor Who and the musician David Bowie
I have a little list of some cool stuff I want to share with you 🙂
First off! I upgraded my WordPress plan, so that I now have a custom URL!
I have been blogging for almost two months now, and I don’t feel any urge to quit. I still have so many ideas and plans I have not gotten to post yet.
So given that, and the fact that it only cost $4 a month, I jumped in!
Secondly! I decided on a logo for SindrElf’s monthly GEEKY RECIPE.
A few people voted on the poll, and I also asked the people on the logodesign subreddit, and some” irl-people aswell. The consensus seemed to be that my little SindrElf doodle wearing a chefs-hat was the best option.
Thirdly! I improved the header for the Fireballx3 page.
I was just not happy with the first header. I had just put three Fireball-cards in a line so they would spell Fireball-Fireball-Fireball. Did not look great.
The new header is at least a bit
funny 😉
I just got back from watching the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra perform sci-fi music in the Grieghallen concert hall.
The swedish film-critic Orvar Säfström made the setlist, and what a setlist it was! Star Wars, Serenity, Aliens, just to mention a few!
I actually teared up a bit from the Halo 2 piece
Unforgotten
Made me remember this old song again.
Then later we are playing Borderlands (2) for the first time. Just me and my gf for that one 😉
