This was an amateur attempt at video editing. The song is easy and I've obviously not played it the way it should be, but that's besides the point. The tool I have used for the editing is called Kdenlive. It is a versatile, easy-to-use opensource tool available for Linux/Mac.
I used Nikon's 50mm 1.8g while recording, which obviously adds to the beauty of the video Serendipityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03168395628477207309noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6411841870957289548.post-11414684110956563052011-08-15T00:31:00.000-04:002012-11-18T18:55:58.273-05:00The one with Der Lagi Lekin ChordsZindagi Na Milegi Dobara was a fabulous movie. Here is one of the songs from that movie. Felt I had to figure out the chords and sing it and spoil it for the rest of you :P.
Without further ado:
Notes:
The Strumming Pattern on this song felt like a slight variation of the "Soul" Rhythm. It is like playing "Soul" without the tapping. Obviously, while playing it the way I did, I messed upSerendipityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03168395628477207309noreply@blogger.com30tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6411841870957289548.post-81062668319371493622011-06-23T10:30:00.001-04:002011-06-23T10:30:01.388-04:00The one with The Legendary Photo
Ok. Not "legendary" :P
You might think this surely is the reason why I do not like being in photos. However, my annoying not-being-in-photos “policy” is a crazy part of my system that has not been flushed. Yet. Reasoning is an irrational, futile & mad exercise.
So, on the contrary, or not: I love this photo very much. This has been, for me, a beautiful snapshot of a time I do not have any Serendipityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03168395628477207309noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6411841870957289548.post-92021183425162178992011-06-10T07:00:00.003-04:002011-06-14T16:41:10.156-04:00The one with The Movies - 1
They are not long, the days of wine and roses:Out of a misty dreamOur path emerges for a while, then closesWithin a dream.
Let me put it out as cleanly and as clearly as I can: I was mesmerized by these two movies. Meaningful, beautiful and thought provoking cinema.
I saw two movies this weekend. Here is a brief description of these movies and the random train of thoughts that went through Serendipityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03168395628477207309noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6411841870957289548.post-75217799577965138182011-06-02T09:00:00.004-04:002011-06-02T13:10:47.209-04:00The Unbearable Lightness of Being
...Private
I have always led a private existence. Small circle. Creepy and fairly annoying 'no-photo' policy. Much too private. It isn't like I'm a fricking celebrity. Stubbornness, maybe. I found the paranoid invisibility; beautiful. It's easy to be in the shadows. It's too easy to blend*. Not being judged. Not being ridiculed. Not having to stand on the edge. Vertigo of a virtual kind.
