Opinion on Hamlet Skin

So over all I think the Hamlet performance was not to bad. The acting was good especially since it was only put together a month in advance. The gun did get abused lol but thats what happens when you give anyone a gun and say just work it in some how.

Was a fun night though because I got to sit by the VJ/DJ crowd and see how all the electronics was incorporated. I am sad that my video didn't get a chance to get a chance.

There is always next year! Its a a possibility!

Also just got done with my first exam, Invertebrate Zoology for the win. What a class you need to see some of these pics!

University cafe

So last night my friends and I tore up the University Cafe. Was a very interesting evening. Usually the night starts off at 11 but last night the crowd arrived at 10. This forced us to start truly DJn earlier instead of messing around. We were able to keep the crowd alive and dancen till our speakers over heated and had to pause the music for 20 min or so, after which we restarted and kept going hard till about 115 ish.

The thing that was interesting the whole night was that while the music was going loud and uninterrupted no one came up to me and requested music. Since it is several DJs messing around with me I never have to worry about being interrupted because they take requests while I am working. Yesterday though we had no one ask for anything to out their till like 1 am. We play Electronic Dance music, which is if you dont know is trance, house, minimal and other electronica.

It is a shame that University Cafe is not a legit club/bar because we were able to pack out the whole place and even form a line around the corner of the Union by 11 pm. Something that usually happens on Halloween. We dont get paid at all, so we are able to experiment with the music we play with. This freedom allows us the opportunity to show people that come to Ucafe new and foreign music. Whoever DJs does get drinks on the house but none of us take advantage of that.

If you are interested in having a fun time on campus and you are 21+ come on out. You will hear some music you could only experience in the city or other parts of the world!

Creativity

I guess when it come to creativity it has to do with ones personal push to do soemthing novel. When you are a kid your creativity can be seen through your artwork such as finger-painting or through the games you invent while playing with your friends. As we grow though our creativity seems to be more and more locked into a social box, where we can dream and try to do something new but only within the constraints of our respective society/culture.

As we discussed breifly those who are in power and control what is hip and popular seldom like for new ideas to magically appear from the average person. Then they would have to share a piece of the pie. With the dawn of the information age though it is becoming easier for some random person to bring their ideas to fruition. This clearly doesnt sit well with corporation and private entities that have been fighting tooth and nail to keep the old school concept of intellectual property alive.

Now though there seems to be a strong push by many people who feel that its time for everyone to enjoy the benefits that the rich have. Thats why many expensive programs are either being cracked or completely rebuilt and redesigned and given away for free. My little cousin who is 13 uses his Mac and iphone like a programmer would 10 years ago on PCs.

We dont all need to go to Bard College to expereince a creative awakening. I visted some friends there. Let me say its not about the college its about the money. Those kids are hipsters in the woods. They do what they want because they pay 50+ thousand. If you are surounded with money from birth and then go to a college flooded with money. The connections you make for life in the future basically lead you into a path filled with money.

The true creative people are the ones that come to Stony Brook and community colleges and are able to make something of themselves, without mommy and daddy paying for everything and setting up job interviews at their friends business in the city.
