Domestic bliss at #LikaLodge : It’s #raining. I made a bed for the #Dog. #Bike is here too, covered a bit. #Fireplace & #tea. This morning I had breakfast at sunrise, under #Lipa / #Linden . Earlier I made a room-divider from a #patchwork curtain I got at #DeGrowth conference last year. Memories & fantasies… plus enjoying the moment!
Have had a really wonderful time at #LIPA Sixth Form College for day one of three days here. Getting to show teachers who use software for a living, an entirely new way of thinking/doing things is very rewarding for both myself as a presenter, and them, as people that perhaps didn’t see the keyboard as more than a typing device until now.
I've gone and done it again!
Anyone that knows me, knows I'm a consummate salesman and sometime trendsetter. I certainly didn't study to be, it just happened. This time though, I think it's all for a good cause.
After my very successful workshop at #LIPA Sixth form on Wednesday where I showcased the benefits of using a keyboard for DAW navigation over a mouse, the first-year students on Friday got a crash-course on Logic shortcuts from the teacher Ian, who said 'Until now I've done everything with the mouse. From today, this changes.'
I can say without any reservation that I've never been happier to see someone adopt something I showed them before.
This could kickstart an entirely new group of young producers who won't rely on the mouse for every last little thing, and I helped that become a reality.
Copy/paste is no longer a chore in mouse-clicks.

Just CMD+C, CMD+V.
I already noticed the students being faster as a result.
