Art & literature

This is just a short post (almost a la Twitter). I'm back, refueled and ready to jump right into work.

For those who might be interested, I've managed to read David Yallop's In God's Name, José Rodrigues dos Santos' A Fórmula de Deus (a Dan Brown -esque portuguese novel about trying to find a scientific answer about the existance of God), a book about Ireland's history, a geographical encyclopedia volume about the Northern Europe, and a small book about Chopin and his contemporary fellows.

I've also tinkered over my drawing and typographic skills by practicing ambigrams, specially to create the logotype of my prototype band/musical project (more on it on some future post), Winterfall.

Talking about music, yes, I'm still playing the guitar and composing. My stack of guitar riffs and melodies has grown (my latest count is around 70 or 80 of them), where the latest are exploring the difficult art of mastering dissonance on harmonies, melodies, and phrases. Someday I might post something about it.
