Contrast and Colour

There is a little understood component in working with digital images that involves blending between layers. Blending dictates, essentially, how one layer interacts with or affects another layer (below it). Photoshop and its many little ugly cousins provide us with a miriad of possibilities from blending brightness to contrast to

Mindless Link Propogation

I don’t own a TV. This is partly because I secretly enjoy telling people that I don’t pay my TV license because it’s the right thing to do. It’s also partly because the internet is jammed pack full of awesomeness that I can rely on it for all my amusements,

Is multi-tasking for the Birds?

I’m teaching myself to multitask. I fear I have much to learn. Amelia managed to send 30 emails, edit a spreadsheet, apply makeup, find all the crap on my iPod, make 3 phone calls and drink a Savannah in the time it took to drive from Somerset West to Blouberg.

All Hallows Eve (Remixed)

Halloween, contrary to some belief, is not a Yanky festival. It actually has it’s origins in Celtic tradition. That’s right, it was the Irish who taught us to let our children dress up as freaks and knock on strangers’ doors asking for sweeties (I live opposite a primary school, it’s

A Boot Full of Luscious Issues

This Post was Instantly Gratifying

Somerset West is on fire. Literally, that is. This is not a town ablaze with cosmopolitan delights; burning with brazen, youthful zeal;  or even conflagrant with exotic and filthy Eastern temptations. Mind you, the Ladies of the Elsies Riviera are known to impart certain kinds of tantalising treats that should

Bring a Colleague to Work Day

…and take them on a tour of the facilities. It’s the WAB [1] equivalent of ambling around with a clipboard to look important. This reminds me of a  meta-study performed on various public surveys where people on the street had to fill in personal details on a clipboard. It turned

Privatising Socialism

As a tax-payer I’m one of the few and the proud. Which in turn, appears to make me fewer and consequently more proud. With all this pride going round, it is surprising that I have not, as of yet, sprouted a golden mane and growl a lot. Yes friends, tax season

SHE Plans for Men

Occupational Health and Safety is, ironically, designed to melt the brain. It is a difficult matter to work on a mine and to stay safe. For one you have to stay sober at all times. Why one would want to stay sober in the dust that is Polokwane or
