Tuesday, November 20. 2007So Long Self
Paul writes in Ephesians 4:21-24,
But you have not so learned Christ, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.
“So Long Self” by MerceMe in the album Coming Up to Breathe puts this in a witty song. The format is the same as many love / breaking up songs. However, it is a song about how were are to forsake our old selves and follow Christ.
Well if I come across a little bit distant,it’s just because I am.Things just seem to feel a little bit different,you understand.Believe it or not but life is not apparentlyabout me anyways.But I have met the One who really is worthy,so let me say
So long, self.Well, it’s been fun, but I have found somebody else.So long, self.There’s just no room for two,so you are gonna have to move.So long, self.Don’t take this wrong but you are wrong for me, farewell.Oh well, goodbye, don’t cry,so long, self.
Stop right there because I know what you’re thinking,but no we can’t be friends.And even though I know your heart is breaking,this has to end.And come to think of it the blame for all of this,simply falls on me.For wanting something more in life than all of this,can’t you see?

Don’t feel so bad (don’t feel so bad),there’ll be better days (there’ll be better days).Don’t go away mad (but by all means),just go away, go away.

Tuesday, April 3. 2007Animusic
Yesterday, I stumbled across animusic. It is 3d music videos in which robot or mechanical devices perform the musical pieces. All the music is synthesized and is very nice, but the 3d artwork is outstanding. If you’ve never seen these, there are a number of samples on YouTube. I’d love to be able to do 3d modeling and animations like this. I’ve listed several of my favorites below:
