2008-06-29T02:11:00.001+01:00

Well how do I start,

Its been a long time since I last blog on this world of blog spera!

But there just has been time nor I had the energy to do so. But its about time that I started again as I am going through a vast life changing moment, I have finiseh university and the only thing keeping me a student is my new designers exbhition that I have organised and designed,

I only have till the 7th July to get everything done and the we move down to London for for ages, its gonna be crazy but gonna rock!

In the mean time I have the busyest time of my life currently happening and yet I am not hating it instead just excited that I have so much pressure that I should explode, but instead I am enjoying it.

I will try from now on to document the newt few weeks in photos and it should be exciting and hardcore!

Fuck I do miss Florida!

Well that was amazing!

Today was the release of the long awaited new Indiana jones movie and I have too say it was well worth the wait! It was epic and had the most unusual plot. The movie was Steven speilbuerg at his very best! 10/10

Love release day movies there's always a buzz in the air.

Back of Cop Car!
Police Station to get my bike back
Police Pound!

Well the most bizarre thing happened to me the other day, quite unbelivible!

I'm more or less a goody two shoes and play by the book, but some times when I ride my Vespa I carry a passanger, ok I know technically I'm not supposed too but sometimes you just gotta, well guess what!

I got stopes by the police for carrying a passanger WTF! Why would they do that, I am legal and ride a powerful brand new mint 2008 Vespa. I mean don't the olive have criminals to arrest then harrass a law abiding citizen.

Jezzz the cops took my vespa away and my keys gave me a ticket and a court order! So now I paid lots of cash for the police pound to release my vespa, got all my documets checked at the station! And awaiting for the court hearing! Likly to be points and a fine! FUCK

All this at the worst time possible ever!

Well so much has happened in the past few weeks that its hard to write about stuff in general, but I will start with a little about the goings on.

Well working back wards might help. Lots of building stuff has been on the agender for a while so that's one issue! Umm I've had one of the worst crits ever the other day. Damn uni is gay kinda killing me, not with work but stress!

Umm learning to drive been intresting and a little to easy, I mean I thought it would be hard.

Umm I broke my micro sd card in my dopod 818 pro(htc) so I could'nt be. Bothered to reinstall apps and files and stuff so I decided to get the iPhone again even though I rembered it being poor. But its turned out to be fab, I mean I'm doing everything I did with my HTC and more with the iPhone even though there's a lack of a qwerty keyboard. The on screen ones ok after all I am writting this with it!
Just need to learn how to add pics.

Really tired so gtg

AVA - Angels and Airwaves - Rock the city!

2008-04-13T14:24:00.000+01:00

wooooaaaaahhhhhhhh!

I've been waiting a long time to see AVA, finaly it happend with the 2008 worldwide tour of angels and airwaves. straight from the states to japan now in england for this intense show. note the word show, this band have bought somthing new with the dismemberment of many succsessful bands such as Blink 182. such a legacy to follow, but i think tom enjoys playing more REAL gigs as Blink was too big to appriciate how big they were.

the gig it self was better then expected with the a impressive light show, not the ususal stuff, but specially bought in lightshow fully sync'ed with the music. Tom seems to be off the wacky stuff so the band was right on, sounded perfect.

this band is a little strange, as it does want to change the world with this intresting take on HOLYNESS. you have to see to belive it. not dissing AVA and i do understand what they are trying to say but i am a little too grow up for such (non-sense).

the past few weeks have been tought, i have the last few weeks of my degree left yet i still havent started my final year project, leaving me only five weeks to do a 5 month project! ok this sucks big time and its really damn pressure but its me after all i am sure i will be able to rectify this problem sooner or later.

ive been to many gigs the past few weeks and exhbitions and had a photoshoot and been visiting the printers regulary.

his

its sunday now and i am running out on time.

i think i may go to milan think i may go milan this friday just for the weekend to go to the milan furniture fair but still thinking about if i have the time.

i better be off as i find it to east to write random stuff and could be here all day.

so GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Quote from new scientist website; "Ketchup Submarine, submitted by Sadiq Miah. The judges felt that this entry did a great job of explaining the principles behind the movement of submarine craft. The clear demonstration using a ketchup sachet and a bottle of water, plus excellent homemade schematics, put this entry on the runners-up list"

The science experiments that i did earlier this year have paid off, (http://megeekstars.blogspot.com/2007/12/newscietists-my-experiments.html) i have won a Canon MD160 DV camcorder Yeahhhhhhh!

But i still have a load of work to do so no film making for a while also my vespa* shoe get deliverd sometime next week, and also i have to go to london and look at my spacew fro New Designers Exibition that I am taking part in July.

Im so STRESSED, how can i do work

2008-03-07T01:27:00.000Z

I Have so much to do its crazy!

Life is becoming hard, the struggles are kicking in and concentration seems as forign to me as eskimos. It does't help when I have so many things happenning around me, some bad others good.

On the Plus side I have bought my helmet, its a retro styled open face one. I bought it in plain siver even though there are thousands of kool helemts with waky retro designs. I did this so that i can customise it myself, after all i am a designer. Above is my inital concept, simple traditional vespa styling. not sure about it though I want a star on it somewhere? Below is the helemt as standard.

I need to do 30% of my entire final year project with in the next few days and so far i have 0% and am stuck in selecting a project to start with. I need HELP!

Yeahhhhhhhh Too Meeee!

I have compleated my Motorcycle Trainning today! and have become road legel yeahhhhhhhh a big step!

It was a panic in the morning as i thought i lost my paper work and had to phone in saying i broke my leg in order to cancel but that didnt work so when i lost faith and gave up looking for my paper work it just turned up 3mins past the start of my day. so in a taxi i zoomed off and got there where all was good! YEAHHHHHHHH

anyway I have also had a nightmare of a time the past few weeks with thinking of a Final Year Project, New Designers 2008, HPI checks and Buying Scooters. Lets just say i'm BUSY very BUSY not had time for games or stuff like that.

And to top it all off i'm just getting even more busier as i start working in the NEC for a friend from Saturday onwards till the end of next week so FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKK even more work then i allready have!

Its alright though after all i love doing stuff and if time was avalible it must mean somthings wrong!

My Brand New 125cc Classic Vespa*/Aprilia* should arrive late next week so very exciting! buying new helmet and stuff this week, so FUN FUN FUN!

The silence before the storm!

2008-02-16T19:58:00.000Z

Somthing Strange has happened, theres a mistious feeling around like somthing big is going to happend, the silence before the storm is here waiting to explod.

Anyway i have handed in my dissitation and my final year project report so i'm as free as i'll ever be in this year from the looks of it. as a week today im going to have to really start on my final year porject and make sure its a very good project. I also have my website to do, my CV and organize the exerbition i'm having in london at new designers, FUCK theres alot to do aint there.

Anyway with some of the free time i have i decided to play a Wii Game, not a heavy gamer myself so itd not a hobbie. But this game attracted me, it just got released and the BoxArt looked kool, manga style so i decided to get it to add to my forever expanding collection of 30+ wii games.

Anyway it has to be one of the best single player wii games i've played for a long while since Resedent Evil.

http://www.no-more-heroes.co.uk

Its so so graphic heavy and intense visuals always keep you wanting more and the big thing is its a 18 certificate! so theres swaring and sexual refereances which is nice for a wii game for a change instead of bunnies jumping around.

PS3 now this is a console which has had a long of neglect as every game seems so fucking lame, but after playing this one its made me warm up to the console that forced me to sell it 1 hour after owning it.

Devil May Cry 4 is a nicely though out games with very high quility visuals, very fantasy and a little homo. but it is a game that is very playable and is a game i would consider to be in the top 3 PS3 games!

Gaming a side there has been many things going on myside, imprtantly i thing i wil lbe able to travel this summer as a long hard job i've been working on has paid off so enough change to travel.
Also Casinos, i have found it an educational experiance and feel i will be traverling to them alot more. gaining a few winnings this week i feel theres a system and its easyly fooled. ready to hit Macau Casinos this summer yeahhhhhhhhhhh.

Thats me

I have offically copped out and have decided to use my extention as i have ran out of time and i havent compleated my LG project so this means i am FUCKING more snowed under with work then ever!

Its not really my fault, I decided i really need to learn InDesign as currently using PS isnt the best for mass work flow! so i Have lernt InDesign and can use it quite well so another sofware to add to my portfolio skillz Whoo!

As i now have extra time on my hads as i have a 3 day extention i decided i would draw y first car with a tablet! and i have to say it worked out rather we'll!

I'm planning to buy Wacom Intuos 3 A4 Tablet when i manage to compleat a freelace job so i can afford it.

My second drawing of a IMAGENARY CAR just using photoshop, not painter as its not on my list of learning softwares yet! it took an hour! i just got into it and flowed with it! im not impressed but hey its a start!

My first car drawing using a A6 tablet as the A3 tablet is gay cos its too big!
really pants but my first! so F** U if your a hater!

Experiment 2: This experiment show that Co2 is actually heavier then air!
The candle is put out with the falling Co2!AMAZING! Try it your self if you don't belive me!
GeekStars for NewScientist

Experiment 3: f = v/λ
Upon initial stirring, entrained gas bubbles reduce the speed of sound in the liquid, lowering the frequency. As the bubbles clear, sound travels faster in the liquid and the frequency increases.
This frequency f is equal to the speed v of the wave divided by the wavelength λ (lambda) of the wave
GeekStars for NewScientist

Experiment 4: Surface Tension
Surface tension is an effect within the surface layer of a liquid that causes that layer to behave as an elastic sheet.
Here the milk and food colourings are the surface and when the liquid soap hits it breaks the surface and the tenstion pulls back the food colouring!

Bullet through my hand! Thinking about Uin work is killing me!

I nned help either mentaly or physicaly cos currently im finding it way to difficult to start any work for uni and i have very fast approching deadlines and i want a very hight grade so i realyy really needs to sort it out and put the work together! my freelance stuff needs to be done asap so its difficult in juggerling work vs school work vs play. its a hard one and i have to decided.

tommrows EID a celebration like cristmas for musilims so thats another day off then we have christmas around the cornner then we have new years eve so theres plaenty of stuff to disstract me from my goals and im justoing to have to work with then and not agains them as in doing so will just make everything fall apart so the way to win is to make everyone happy so to speak.

my eassy has a title and a formal structure but no chapeter tiltles or main focus area for this new innonative dissitation! damn ive got a hard few weeks ahead. i am waking up extreamly early tommrow and starting my regiem of intenste work! i have to otherwise i am screwed and will only achive less then i set out to.

the past few days have been killing me the thought of all this work has been hapering my efforts of doing the work that i have. this cycel is damgerous and has allready burnt alot of my time. that and the libury of wii games that contineingly wasting my time. i play then for rufly 1 hr a day not much but in my opinion thats loads and too much for me. 3hr a week is enough so cutting down on games aswell not.

books:
i like books the past year i have spent nearly £500 on books alone, its not my fault its the filth design/art book publishers and there rediculous pricing for new publications. i have a libury of wonderful graphic design and product design books that i like to look at but dont have much time to absorb. allways on the look out for more......

thats a update on what im thinking currently and the past few days in my cycle of fusstration!

I CAN'T WAIT TO GO TRAVERLING 2008

New Wii Games

2007-12-17T01:21:00.000Z

Well, im not a serial gamer but i tend to have a lot of wii games today i got two new games that in my opinion theroreticaly are the best games ever for games consoles. I say thereticaly because these are the games i buy when games come out rather then the new mario or sonic etc.

Anyway we have here The Simpsons Game & Tony Hawk Proving Ground

The Simpsons Game:
Amazing game play and cell shading graphic very simular to the show. nice game fun to play and seems like its going to be fun compleating it! how ever i have a unsureal attention span for games so i think level 2 is enough for me and for the next game. 7/10

Tony Hawk Proving Ground:
This game suprised me i thought it would be some crappy tony hawk downhill jam type game, but it accturally its a normal tony hawk game with is fun! graphic are simular to Tony Hawk Underground 2 on PC so not bad but not SKATE on the PS3. 6/10

MIA LIVE BIRMINGHAM CUSTARD FACTORY!

Epson A3+ Mini Ciss Install

2007-11-19T15:03:00.000Z

New printer didnt really want to install a Bulk Ciss ink system as these tend to mess up printers after a while due to air getting into the printer head. because of this i decided to go with a miniCiss. these systems are very new with limited places selling them, for this reason i bought mine from Hong kong.
Intalling the system is the same as replacing the cratrages as the miniciss is just a refillible resivor that can be refilled with out taking the cratrages out the printer. theres about 40ml ink in each cartrage so thats 2-4 times more then originals.

Colour colaboration test with original epson and miniciss print.

Above is the original RGB file

The above is a single scan of the test prints top miniciss and bottom original.

I have to say the miniciss far out does the epson originals as it seems more life like and matches the original rgb file more.

I'd recomend this mini Ciss to anyone

LG Hi-Macs Technical Briefing

2007-11-14T01:55:00.000Z

Today we had part two of the LG Hi-Macs project brief which was the technical side of the matirial and what and what it can't do.
After being show stuff about the solid surface it seems i now have less ideas then before as th e lecture was kinda of draining and not very specific.
and the cost per sheet and fabrication seems to cost a lot so making anything of sugnificance is going to be difficult!

other then that today has been crap cos im ILL and feverish! dont like it.

wraped up warm and going into hybernation for a day or so to recover!

Theater: Madame Lucinda’s Wonder Show

2007-11-08T23:58:00.002Z

WOW that was good! went to theater today as there was a show that sounded too good to be missed! i thought it was by far more interesting then it sounded and enjoed it. as much as i hate clowns i think this pulled it off damn well. Good Show!

COPY & PASTE:
Based on poems and text written for the Wonder Show by Anna Maria Murphy (Kneehigh Theatre, The National Theatre, BBC Radio 4) and combining Rogue Theatre’s daring style, Madame Lucinda’s Wonder Show beautifully blends the innocent with the macabre, optimism with the inescapable and the real with the fantastical.With live music, illusion, side splitting comedy, dance, explosive physical theatre and compelling narrative, the show stylistically borrows from the 1920’s Side Show and finds itself somewhere between the worlds of “Tim Burton” and “The Wizard of Oz”.Mixing circus spectacle and passion with the real, follow the unusual stories of three acts; Sirus (The Man Who Knows), Svetlana (The Living Doll) and Lo-Lo (The Clown). Marvel at the exquisite heartache, the torturous hilarity and breathtaking magic.Madame Lucinda’s Wonder Show is designed for adults and young adults; though can be enjoyed by an adventurous family audience. Tickets: £9

this is what happends if you leave dealines to the very very END!

its been a difficult challenge to start my work after my return long ago from the busy busy working lifestlye of HK. I havent done the work so far cos it hasnt intrested me. but right now i am intrested in the graphic design side so in this project i am going to try focus on layout rather then mass amounts of work.

i thought i would be behind sheduale on this project, but as prototypes are not needed i think i will be fine as they take up the most time.

this post is dedicated to ME starting my WORk so yeahhhh to me!

CISS KIT INSTALLATION

2007-09-11T19:19:00.000+01:00

oh my days that was one mess install!

Very Geeky subject but a must for any graphic designer, I just bought my CISS (continuos ink supply system) Kit today and had a mission installing it!

This is a possible business enterprize i was going to go into if the installation was simple. to but it simply it is'nt with the supplyed instructions!

I did however manage to get the system up and running in under 2 hours but still quite a long time and i cant expect my customers to try it them selves with the original instructions. I would sell each full kit at retail of £59.99 as i know there would be a lot of customer support i must provide.

the output is perfect and impossible to tell the diffecrence between original and ciss output. i'd recommend any graphic/visual design to get one as it really does cut cost down 95%
