| Photos Button Ousted by Media Button
in Overnight Web Layout Coup!
11/08/2006: So I was staring at my index page for a solid five hours the other day, and I started thinking, "Hey, why should I limit the PHOTOS section to only photos." I didn't have a good answer, so I decided to sleep on it. When I woke up the next day, the PHOTOS button had been miraculously replaced by a newer, and slightly more arrogant, MEDIA button. When asked for a comment, the MEDIA button was quoted saying, "Yea, that mark ass trick wasn't pullin' his weight. So, I stepped in 'cause I plan on getting things done. Under Construction for two months! That's [expletive deleted]!" The PHOTOS button was unavailable for comment. There you have it! The PHOTOS section has been broadened into a new MEDIA section to incorporate a wider range of media forms: audio, video, animation, art, and photos. |

| Matthew Lawson Design.com Gets a Facelift!
10/30/2006:
A little after launching the site two months ago, I came to a realization that the site was flawed in its original design. Originally developed as a flashy mount for my PORTFOLIO, the site would prove difficult to expand as I generated more content. Yea, totally busted. I know.
Considering I'll be continuing to update this bad boy with a whole lot more creative media, I cranked out a newer, more fluid site design to evolve with newer content. I hope you like the new design, but if you don't you can always stick it to me in the FEEDBACK section. Or you can just suffer in silence. At any rate, Welcome to the NEW MatthewLawsonDesign.com, and keep checking back for more updates! |

| Did Somebody Say "More Crunchy Grooves?"
10/12/2006: It's no secret that the human race loves music, with the exception of cleverly disguised humanoid aliens, and that is precisely why I'm updating my PORTFOLIO's playlist. So as not to become stale and uninteresting, I've selected four new tracks and I'll be looping the other six back in shortly there after. One more time with feeling; here's the break down: 10/18/2006:
The New Pornographers - Mass Romantic - (Mass Romantic) 10/25/2006:
Muse - Bliss - (Origin of Symmetry) 11/01/2006:
Mylo - Drop the Pressure - (Destroy Rock & Roll) 11/08/2006:
DJ Shadow - Artifact - (The Outsider) 11/15/2006:
TV on the Radio - King Eternal - (Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes)
11/22/2006:
Boards of Canada - Aquarius - (Music has the Right to Children)
11/29/2006:
Air - La Femme D'argent - (Moon Safari)
12/06/2006:
Tortoise - It's All Around You - (It's All Around You)
12/13/2006:
u-ZIQ - Octelcogopod - (Bilious Paths)
This should keep you fine folks occupied until mid-December, so enjoy the new tunes and keep checking back for more audio freshness. |

| Ridiculousness in Radio Land ...
09/30/2006: In an effort to occupy more forms of media, I've expanded my influence into broadcast radio. Developing "The Morning Drive-By," (a hybrid of early morning, coffee-fueled banter, modern music, and borderline-offensive, anti-advertisement radio skits) has already earned a reputation at 89.7 WITR, Henrietta. While some individuals have described the show's hosts, DJ Ziff and The Frisco Kid (yours truly), as "jackasses," we feel that those folks are unfamiliar with the terms "facetious" and "parody." Some of the show's recuring characters include: Tony Woppaducci of Woppaducci Auto Sales, a completely ruined automotive dealer in Rochester struggling to sell off his overstocked inventory before the bank forecloses on his lot. There's also The Aryan Nation Business School, where thoughtless racists are able to acquire the necessary business training to succeed in developing career fields. The Morning Drive-By also airs anti-ads from both the Cable Company and the Dish Company, engaged in total war for Rochester's digital communication market. I'll work on putting up some samples of the show and our anti-air skits within the next couple weeks. Stay tuned, there's much more to come! |
