By trade I am a theatre designer who is currently teaching and my hobby is working on computer on various projects unofficially. I have been mixing those two for quite some time and I can actually see the two merging at some point in time. I am fond of lighting design and I think more and more we see progress towards new technology. The days of just having a vibrant filament are almost over, now is the time for the 0 and 1. I have been debating the use of the blog and I wanted to open up to the world. Can the two mix with some sort of success?
I always gather as much as if there is good content then there should be a crowd. I have read some of the theatre blogs out there. They are mostly geared towards reviews and bringing nothing but critic to the table. I am personally not a fan of those type of blogs. I also spent some time reading dance blogs which to me are more interesting because they bring out interesting questions. So to re-cap, theatre nay, dance yay.
I have been a slackware user for more then 10 years now. I haven’t done much for the community but feel the need to participate in some ways now. I wonder if people are interested in having a gemini tell his story.
Can you mix dance/theatre design and a personnal hobby in a blog? I haven’t seen much of them around. You could ask the same question for any type of other art mixed with technology? What would the answer be? I actually don’t know of any blog that post something regularly about design. I know all about the reviews so no need to remind me. If you do have a blog about theatre design, please let me know, I would love to read yours.
I would like to think that it is possible. Theatre design is evolving into something that is very interesting and well, we all know about technology. For example, Linux is, to me at least, starting to get some attention from various people and maybe the more we talk about it the better open source software can position itself to lead the way. It’s a dream but, eh, why not?
