The past couple of days i have been working on making the icons for my IR and finding sounds. Sound boot is an epic FAIL. There are not very many good sounds at all and i found audition to be way better anyway. On the other hand sounds on the Mac are very promising as well as sounds from flash kit. I have many icon finished all ready and ready to be presented next week when they are do. I got them done early.=] And today i will continue to work on my art for the IR and the icons mostly.

I finally finished the rose petals in my IR =] now i just have to take my art back into photoshop and fix a background problem that i found. But it should be simple and not time consuming at all. Today i also looked for audio for my IR. Used soundbooth and was not very successful.

For Mr. F

Developing a Purposeful Practice

George Leonard once wrote about the concept of mastery as it is used in eastern cultures and in the martial arts (Leonard and Murphy 1991). He pointed out, for instance, that in India mastery is a lifelong process; it is not achieved just by learning skill, but instead must become integrated into one’s whole life. The martial arts in Japan and China are not characterized by graded levels en route to mastery, as they are in the United States. Rather, one continues a routine of practice throughout one’s life to discover ever new subtleties of the art, and the art reveals ever new insights about life. “Practice” is seen as a journey toward mastery.
