Fractal clip [music: M83 - Midnight City]

Hello folks
It’s me once again and I’m glad editing new post. In shortly I can say: the clip and the music (which is called M83 – Midnight City) are out of the context, the clip isn’t synchronized with music and do not have any relationship with music at all.
So I’m done and has left not much to say :D But anyway, who knows, maybe someone will like this version, because in my opinion my best clip which has been created on July (this year) I guess has been watched just 32 times so WTF :D nobody liked that and that is mystery to my for sure, because you never know what people are going to like. Maybe somebody (or I guess majority of you) enjoys much more the music (and it depends of course what kind of music because I’m implementing to my clips very very (gently speaking) different kind of music) than the clip.
I also have noticed (even I can you believe this :D ) that much more popular music and the clip will be probably as well, when music is contains with acoustic guitar sounds and with soft voice. For instance Darkness Falls are one of that bands and I really like to listen that music as well (and probably from time to time the majority of us are turning on this softly sound and much less for instance Aphex Twin Windowlicker :D) But I have to admit that I prefer to listen very different genres of music. I guess that I’m not listening just pop music and hip hop of nowadays but I like hip hop of eighties and nineties very much.
I’m going out of the line once again and I do need I just have to add a couple of rows about my clip :D I’m going to watch it again and soon will say my opinion (I’m writing this because soon couple of rows will be fulfilled and I won’t than say anything about my vid :D). So as I said I watched it and I’m proud to say that this clip is not worst comparing to all of my clips which I placed in youtube. Pictures have been generated from programs like Fyre and Fraqtive by me and of course finally was edited using sony vergas pro 10.0 :D
BTW very often I'm generating mirrored fractals and when I'm starting to move picture very often if not always (if picture is mirrored into hexagon) appears something like Star of David. So I need to say that I do not have nothing in common with that what so ever anyway. It just happens instantly during the process.
So enjoy this clip and good luck for everybody.
Take care ;)

#2 It's all about sharing

Other issue proceeding talk about social networks is that nowadays very rapidly has developed smartphones, which allows us to have very quick access to these networks. So no it doesn’t matter where you, you can easily ‘connect’. So now I would be delighted to talk about this kind of thing.
So this idea of instant access with your smartphone whenever you are, is making even more attractive these social networks. And the companies of these models say as one: “it is all about sharing” or something like that. But here appears strange things as well (to me at least).
Recently I bought nokia lumia 710. The phone is just amazing. But here appears that ‘it’s all about sharing’ very clearly . Yes, you can share there using all kind of soc. Nets. Even listen to music which you like and even download it for free (and when you offline, you can listen that for couple of weeks, until it will be removed because of license issue). But there appears another very strange (to me at least) kind of problem: using zune program you can download to and from phone pictures music videos, but you cannot download in and out document files. But why it is so :D ? I can just speculate about that. Because this smart phone do have 3.7 inch display which allows something to read, even document.
It appears that you have to use internet storage called skydrive, which allows you to input document files and (maybe) just from that storage (or it is possible and through email) to download files.  And when it’s done, then you can read this file. But when you just go away from that document and try again, you have to repeat that action (to download it from email or skydrive) or just go to office window and select window link :D but after that selection that stupid (in this case for sure) ‘smartphone’ is starting to download that what you just downloaded a couple of seconds ago :D And as I said earlier what kind of reasons are behind this agenda I do not know and can just speculate, but one thing is very clear: you desperately need and internet access, otherwise nothing will happened. So you have stay tuned and that infuriates me a lot :@
So in conclusion ladies and gentlemen, these kind of smartphones in my opinion are just for entertainment, because you can watch vids, pictures and listen to music without access to the internet, but it is not allowed you to read the simplest adobe file!  
So that was a quick review for you, I do not have time to write more at this moment. But I will proceed these topics and that’s for sure :)

Hello folks
Despite this fact that nobody are visiting this site and my English is just terrible, I decided to start something new called my virtual corner (this name can be changed in near future and it depends of that what kind of text will appears there). On this post I’m going to concentrate on the communication issue and a little bit about social networks.
Communication nowadays is developed very quickly. Social networking systems are interconnected into each other and working at full capacity. If we compare what was before 7 years (for instance) to this day, we can see a lot of difference in that area of development. As I said before, into interconnected social networks such as twitter facebook (you name it) flows a lot of information. Obviously in depends on the source what kind of info is appearing. But most of this info, which is generated have almost no meaning what so everJ. Obviously it has meaning (more or less) to the addressee (if such does exist anyway). So I guess a lot of folks will agree that nowadays people are encountering with information overflow in social networks (but I do not blame them, why I should. I myself like that idea to write something and express myself like I’m doing now). So in the first conclusion, ladies and gentlemen, I have to save, that we are using that what have been created for us, but in proper or not proper ways that is not for me to decide ::D
Earlier, when nobody had a mobile phone (just a telephone or landline phone) seems a bit weird to a lot of people I guess. But it seemed that in this particular situation people had more ‘freedom’ if I can put in that way. Nowadays, especially if we do have a lot of friends or are busy personas, to live without a laptop, or smartphone just for one day, it seems like a biggest nightmare :D So the second conclusion seems that our society has changed by these devices (and now is changing more and more with a stronger acceleration). And that is irreversible changing.
Earlier people fought for their privacy, nowadays nobody just cares about that. They just want to share ideas, thoughts, to have conversations on their social networking systems, and share their privacy (pictures vids and so on) with others. Why it is like so? Because we are curious (I guess the mars rover has also this name – curiosity (totally of topic :)) and that ability has attraction to the social networks as well. So another conclusion is also simple we are using it because we are curious.     
But when we are dependent to these communication systems, that’s it – to escape from that you do not have a lot of chances: D  Because we are curious and others are using it we others also involving into this. And that’s the name of the game. And a lot of our conversations have been moved into these soc. networks sys. I lost of track which conclusion will be now, but a lot of our conversation has moved there.
Because of that it is becoming very strange phenomenon when everybody who is online wants to talk at the same time (or just want to be noticed) and is starting to flow meaningless info. And namely at that time starts to appear a couple of problems. First - information overflow (especially if you do have a lot of friends and you are very curious). Second, too much time there forms overwhelming impression. Third, because of information overflow and overwhelming impression you are leaving these social networks not always happy and don’t feel connected with others. But I guess it depends on popularity: who are popular then social networks are maintaining or even growing their popularity and who were not – they are maintaining that as well or going under. And that is not very important what you will say there or what you will share with others. So that is becoming for some people (like me) a real issue.
As I said before, I do like to share my opinions on various questions and so on, but I do not like how the information is presenting in some soc.nets. I guess, after 5 or more years somebody will find this text and will use it against me :D OMG that would be a total failure.
