White Water Rafting in Rotorua, New Zealand

I put together a little video slideshow from the photos we got when we went rafting in Rotorua, New Zealand. I saved it in HD so you should check out the full quality version!

The whole thing lasted about 30 minutes and it was so much fun! The guys who ran it were great craic too…. utter lunatics!

My New Percussion Instrument – Cajon

admin — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 14:01:13 +0000

I bought a Cajon box drum a few weeks ago from www.thomann.de, I’m really enjoying it!Its a pretty simple design; a hollow box with a hole on the reverse side, and behind inside the front panel, there’s a series of thin guitar like strings to give it a nice snare rattle.

As you play you notice the different tones you can get out of it. The top edge sounds like a snare and closer to the middle, a bass drum. You can fill in the rest with delicate ghost notes, these can be your hi-hats. You can also change the pitch of the drum by running your foot up the front panel as you play, do this with a nice fill pattern and these could be your toms.

So there you have it, kick, snare, hi-hats and toms in one box!

Dun Laoghaire Band Stand – 3D

I made this back in 2004 for an old college project. Its a model of what the old Band Stand in Dun Laoghaire used to look like. It has recently been knocked down and rebuilt.

I’m by no means a 3D artist or anything. We had a module in 2nd year and we did some 3D Studio Max work for a few months.
