The life of an interactive designer is about walking the line between design and development, which is a fine line. It's about balance and leaning a bit on one field and a bit on the other without totally falling on one of them. And even if sometimes is frustrating because you're not good at code or photoshop as you would like to be, it's definitely fun.

I just printed off a gazillion Illustrator tutorials. I'm going to try to make some illustrations for a search engine design I am making. Should be interesting.

- My screen is small, and I like being able to look at the tutorial while doing it, instead of switching screens.Jaline
- TREE MURDERER!canuck
- Relax, she printed them on acetate and painted the backs white with house paint.Horp

I make no apologies for the fact that I withstood Vivaldi for only ten minutes or so, then put The Stranglers back on.

I make no apologies for the fact that sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and feel a little bit hungry and go and make Vivaldi a snack.

For some reason I just recalled the Richie Manic / Steve Lamacq incident when Richie Manic responded to the suggestion that the Manic Street preachers might be a bit pretentious by deep carving '4real' into his forearm with a brand new razorblade live on air.
- http://timesonline.t…Horp
- Would have been great if Lamacq had responded by rubber stamping his forehead with a big "PRETENTIOUS"Horp
- sounds psychoticnilsnihil
- My cousin did that. Except he was drunk, and it was his girlfriend's name. the scar is quite obvious.Jaline
- I also think he may have burned himself. it was either that, and/or the razorblade.Jaline
- I thought that said 'bummed himself' for a second - how pretentious!max_prophet
- how flexible!kelpie

I always thought self harm was the most pretentious mental instability going anyway. Dead cunt.
- I'm going to hell for this aren't I?kelpie
- That's like saying "i'm going to get wet, aren't i" when you've already jumped off the diving boardlocustsloth
- Self harm is in some cases a way to feel something. Often when you have no idea what to feel.chossy

'Pretentious' would make a fairly good studio name, in my opinion.

the bizarrest thing; as I was reading the notes and read rands 'and hate ourselves when no one is looking?' I thought about writing a note about carving things onto out flesh, a la Richie Manic.
And then I read Horps comment there in the post below.Spooky, you might say. You might also say that I subliminally read his post or that I am completely unoriginal
- That's it! I'm going to carve "completely unoriginal" onto my chest - GENIUS!max_prophet
- Lets all do it!max_prophet
- We all have to carve it into your chest?NotByHand
- See you at 4! Bring a knife!max_prophet
- I'll opt for a different body part...Jaline
- It'll be very Kafkaesquemax_prophet
- can I carve it on Sagmeister instead of myself?magnificent_ruin
- please do, and upload the results to ffffffoundmax_prophet
- I'm going to stand in the background bumming myself.Horp
- If you carve something, and then sprinkle some coke in there (for decoration purposes, of course), will it hurt for long?Jaline

I wonder if people will add 'esque' to my name some time in the future, when describing wonderful things.

- Hey, maybe you guys could be friends!Jaline
- I have this weird fascination with QBN members being real-life friends. Eating lunch together and everything.Jaline
- Yah, it's kind of wacky to think that I guess. A whole bunch of the brits are real-life friends as it were, aren't they?pylon
- I always thought so, but I think only half of them have met. Or less.Jaline

I thought the british were known for their impeccable manners, but whenever i listen to the BBC world service, every single one of their interviews is extremely combative; even if they're interviewing some poor school marm from the east midlands, they like to cut her off mid-sentence and throw in a "AREN'T YOU IN FACT A HEINOUS MONSTER WHO WANTS NOTHING MORE THAN TO SUCK THE MARROW FROM THE GNAWED-CLEAN BONES OF THE WEE ONES IN YOUR LAIR DOWN BY THE COAL SCUTTLE?". Which, of course, throws everyone interviewed for a total loop and by the time they recover their composure, the interview is over.
- There you are!Jaline
- people on TV are not... people.
