Valida is a very particular woman who knows what she wants and just how to get it. This job was a lesson in giving the client just that. It was originally supposed to be a revamp of her old site, built as template pages she could update on her own without having to learn too much more than what she already knew with Dreamweaver. So instead of going the 2009 Web 2.0 route, I resorted to using tables (yes, tables), putting content inside of a billboard (a task in its own) and going back to basics. At the end of it all, she was very pleased with the outcome and I’ll now be her web guy for updates. Maybe one day I’ll give it an updated scheme and coding, but until then, it’s all about what she wants.

Searching for new music today at the ever-so-awesome Hype Machine, I came across one of the cleanest, most inspiring blog designs my eyes have seen in days. Waves At Night showcases an intriguing collage-style frame, leaving ample room for comfortably spaced black text on a white background. Classy, arresting, simple.
Kudos to the designer for not only a great blog to look at, but also to the authors for keeping up on such paramount music of our times.

While you’re there, be sure to download the disco-tastic Damn Arms remix of Far Away, originally produced by the Melbourne indie-pop stars Cut Copy. Good stuff!

New Staticka Photography from the Bloc28 by Disney Art Show. Danny and myself (who together make up 1/2 of Media Contender) were there to cover the Continental Gallery event where the people were buzzing, art was blaring, and music was spinning by DJs APX-1 and Sucio (me!).

Media Contender website v.3, a WordPress tweak managed and directed by Jeff Tovar (also a content contributor) for over a year to-date. As audience popularity grows, the visual appeal must constantly evolve with new features in mind.
