Welcome to my very first blog. I suppose it was only a matter of time; I am, after all, writing my thesis on media and journalism (and a blog in particular). But that’s not really what this is about. Let’s face it: blogging is just so cool right now.
In this blog, I will share my musings on and experimentations with various forms of media old and new, from artistic endeavors to middle-of-the-night epiphanies, from honest reviews to reflections on recent readings or lectures, from self-indulgent dork-fests to intriguing/educational/entertaining links. Kid tested, mother approved, this media serial will snap, crackle and pop until you go coo-coo. (Had to get that out of my system)
I have a lot of catching up to do because, like so many others these day, I use, think about, and manipulate media all the time. Many of my first posts will likely draw from old material, just as a way of indexing some of the things I have already thought about or done vis-à-vis media, but not to worry: this will be a site for creating as well as cataloguing.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I will.
