Hey, it’s been a minute.

I’ve been gone because my father had spine surgery. It’s been rough and difficult, it hasn’t even been a week yet, I’ve been struggling a lot. So if it seems like I’m vacant or not responding to messages.

I try to keep my personal life outside of social media stuff. But I felt the need to explain.

I also have a new fic I’ve been working on. That will be published hopefully by Monday night. I’ve been trying to write to keep myself sane.

As always a pic for offering. One of my favorite boys.

Music Shelf Presents: Slipped Through The Cracks

"Slipped Through The Cracks" is the brainchild of Music Shelf's Gimpleg. It is a review roundup featuring reviews that well, slipped through the cracks!

All reviews by Gimpleg. Death and Memphis – The Time Between Dog and Wolf Chicago based Death and Memphis released their first LP since 2019’s Exhausted titled The Time Between Dog and Wolf– a six track EP of rock and roll and punk that feels original and high energy. While a lot of music that has heavy punk and rock and roll/ hard rock influence can sound sloppy or cluttered or too distorted…

Can you guess who my favorite band is

[deathlessathanasia]

"Xanthus the lyric poet—the one who was older than Stesikhoros—says that the daughter of Agamemnon Elektra did not have that name at first, but instead was Laodikê. After Agamemnon was killed and Aigisthos married Klytemnestra and was king, because she was “unbedded” (a-lektron) and was growing old as a virgin, the Argives called her Elektra because she didn’t have a husband and had no experience of a marriage bed." (Aelian, Varia Historia, 4.26)

Howl's Moving Castle, Hot Fuzz and The Birdcage! Honorable mention to Rite Here Rite Now, because the second I can own it it'll be on repeat for at least a week (normal)

fave song at the moment?

I'm still stuck on The Future is A Foreign Land, but if we don't count Ghost then it's gotta be She's a War by Lektron:

Week 6 - Critical Self - Reflectivity

In week 6, we were taught about critical self-reflectivity. To me, it has a similar idea to critical thinking. Critical self reflection involves personal growth, reflecting oneself’s experience, what you have learnt and how you will change in the future. (What is a Critical Reflection? Introducing the “What, So What, Now What” Model)

As a group of four, we have to head out to a nearby mall from school and document any design problem that we see and think of a solution, then share it with the class. 

The problem that we decided to focus on is unreadable signage. We believe that unreadable signage causes great disadvantages to both the shop owners and the customers. Not only does it affect the shop’s business, it also confuses customers when the signages are hard to read (Boudreaux).

We noticed that some of the shop signs were quite old and dirty. Here are some of the design problems that I have documented. From these images, some of the shop signs that I saw were hard to read from afar due to the colour, choice of font, and font size as well. Besides that, some of the texts are not communicated well and we can't tell if the shop is a food store or what the store is selling. My solution to these problems is ensuring that the shop name is big and visible from afar as it is the main sign, and has good contrast. Moreover, the choice of fonts plays a big part in readability. For example, using San serif fonts instead of serif. Improving signage not only helps for readability but also helps to improve brand visibility and recognition.(Jullings)
