Not sure what this will lead to

This is my very first Blog page and first Blog posting. I am not sure if another Blog in the cybernetic world is necessary, but here it is. In some ways I have begun this Blog out of curiosity as well having another forum to discuss my thoughts, ideas in relation to the visual arts, design, perhaps some theory/writings and post various visual information.

I suspect this Blog will not be that active but only time will tell for certain.

So in the meantime I ask for your patience.
