Track Tuesday

This week I would like to take a look at some interesting instrumental music.  This genre seems to be overlooked, but I feel it is definitely good music to play in the background or while studying or relaxing.  Today's track is entitled Electric Daisy Violin by the artist Lindsey Stirling. 

Stirling is an violinist who does originals, and covers of many songs.  Her music is quite good, and it is full of depth and is pretty upbeat and entertaining to listen to.  If you watch any of her music videos you will be able to see that she really does enjoy what she does.

You can check out her Youtube channel here
For those of you who can play the violin, she also has some of here sheet music for sale
She is currently touring in the U.S. check out the list of venues and see if she will be performing near you.

 Enjoy the track and look forward to the next Track Tuesday!

Construction Zone Safety and Common Sense

I currently work for the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, and I feel it is necessary to point out a safety tip or two for people who drive through construction zones.  I read earlier last week in the news that people travelling through the highway 65 project are moving or stealing the markers that are used to direct traffic at the work site.  I can not stress enough how incredibly dangerous and stupid that is.  The markers are there to improve safety on the job site and to direct traffic.  If something is moved it could cause injury or death.  If you see anybody doing this do as the article says and report them to the police. Also, a few weeks back I went up to Superior to do road survey.  My main job was to walk along the road and measure the lengths of the painted lines all up the highway.  There were several occasions where I was alongside the road with proper signage to broadcast my presence yet people would not change lanes and ended up driving two feet away from me at 7

Red v.s. Blue

I do not know how many of you are familiar or have seen machinima , which is essentially scripted movies/shows made in video games.  I would like to however to discuss one of my favorites a show called Red v.s. Blue.  The show takes place in the Halo universe, and was originally just a comedy, made as a weekly video game skit by Rooster Teeth .  First started when the original Halo came out (that makes me feel really old) the skit took place in the iconic map Blood Gulch.  The story involved some of the least intelligent and extremely hilarious soldiers who were posted in the canyon to protect their flags from the other team. The show was without to much of a plot line but it was funny, so many people watched it.  That was all the way back in 2003, and now 10 years later the show still lives and has a coherent plot line complete with some drama, secrets, and of course the humor that brought its success in the first place.  The 10th season of the show recently ended with season 11 due

Summerset Music Festival 2013

This last weekend I attended my first music festival.  A few of my friends and I got a campsite and 3-day passes and made the journey over to Somerset WI so we could see some massive acts that would all be congregating at the same festival. We ended up getting to Somerset around one but had to wait in line for security and car checks until three.  Afterwards we we able to secure a campsite way out in the sticks of the north campground.  The site was pretty nice and we were surrounded by other people who came from all over to listen to the beats. Surrounded by tents in every direction The lineup this year was huge.  A few of the artists I really wanted to see were Big Gigantic, Girl Talk, Kill Paris, Madeon, Krewella, and Zedd.  The festival had three stages: the main, the grove, and the saloon stages.  The main is exactly as it sounds, a giant main stage where the main acts would play, the grove stage was a tented in area, and the saloon stage was the smallest off to the side
