The TRIP is the mental projection of my digital self. Including all areas of digital work I have been involved with, including Music, video, photography...
All good web pages must have the collection of absolutely useless pictures. Designed for no purpose other than to consume kilobits. And hopefully show off some of my Photographic skills. Web design skills, and uses one php script to drive the whole index. Also see the Photography section of the Silicontrip Website.
The Creative section of the TRIP is my imagination trying to run free. I have a fascination with sexual, spiritual and meta physical abilities, and these stories show it.
Part of the images directory contains some of my digital artwork. These images have been created or enhanced by myself, with the help of the 1s and 0s machine.

So this is supposed to be good for business, right? I've heard that before, Windows is good for business because everyone else is using it. Why would you bother running an incompatible operating system? Choice. I choose not to run what the masses run. I want to be different. I like the fact that I am. I like the fact that I can do with my OS what I want because I know how to use it. I'm not spoon fed how to click.
CPU architecture is also a choice. This is a sad day indeed for choice. The x86 architecture has been slowly irradicating all choice. PA-RISC, Alpha and now the PPC. If I want a "personal computer" that runs on something other than x86, I no longer can do so. Why is lack of choice bad?
Monopolies are bad. Now that there is no choice (there are only 2 x86 cpu manufacturers) we can see CPU prices slowly being raised. Consumers slowly being squeezed. Why? Any other CPU manufacturer has been removed from the game.
So now I can run my windows dll codecs in mplayer for OSX? How long will it be before we see OSX on generic x86 hardware? How long will the PPC architecture of my current investments be supported?
Pity that no one else can see that diversity and choice is good
I'm going to buy a sun workstation
