About


I was that weird kid who you never really knew but somehow played a vital role in the community. I was the kid who thought he knew everyone, but was in fact in his own little world, trying to figure everything out. I was the kid that had an odd curiosity for people, but never bothered getting to know anyone that well, until I grew up.

Now I am the Jack of all Trades, specializing in web-design, gardening, poetry, photography, canoeing, exploring, and teaching. My name is Preston Palmer, and I hope to be most notably known for my Art is Our World Project. Everything else, however, is what stands as the purpose of this blog.

Here, let me open that, the window into my life.

Star Trek has helped me appreciate how close we are to the moon.

I remember when I was younger, and they were teaching us about the moon and the solar system, and most importantly exploring he surface of the moon. I remember imagining all having biospheres on the moon and being able to live up there. Of course, being so young, I over-looked almost all of the complications of being able to live in space, but there was one that I would always return to; water. However it is a rather important one, as far as we know earth is the only place in our solar system that has an abundant and accessible source of water in our solar system.

Over the past decade since I learned about space in elemntary school there have been incredible new discoveries made about water in our solar system. For example, we have reason to believe that there is warm salt-water on one of the moons of saturn. Now, we have reason to believe that there is frozen water on our own moon, and idea many thought would’t not be true.

Go here to read more.

Maybe one day we will be able to travel to the edge of our solar system. Maybe one day we will be able to travel even further. I hope so. It sounds exciting.

Sunday

So yesterday, my dad needed to redo the circuit breaker for the entire house, meaning the power to the whole house needed to be shut off for what he said would be 4 hours. Little did I know, the project would end up taking about 11 hours. A few hours in I decided to help out, long story short, it’s 11:25pm, we finish but I have homework due online at 12.

>.>

Too bad I didn’t check to see if I would have to watch a 20 minute video on youtube that, now, wont load because our internet is taking forever to come back online. I watch two minutes of the thing, leave a crap response to it. Now it’s 12:30, and I’ve put my sheets in the laundry, but it’ll take 3 loads to get through everything.

4:00 hits and I still don’t have it all finished because I keep forgetting to move it through, and I end up setting up the few sheets I have washed and dried on my floor over a few pillows and a fold out mattress thing.

These are the late nights that I give, so that the house may move towards completion. It’s not as bad as a few years ago. An entire wall of the house missing, no heat, an electric space heater standing at the closest safe distance from my bed. Meanwhile the coldest of Minnesota winters rage on around me. I should write a goddam novel.

Love ‘em. Just added them to my libary.

huh?

So, I decided, in order to maintain the public look of “soundlessw”, that this main account, from here on out, is to be used for stuff pertaining specifically to the soundlessw name/brand. That includes:

  1. News about soundlessw across platforms (deviantART, flickr, last.fm, twitter, etc.)
  2. News about me as a person and my life and what I’m doing.
  3. Allusions and mentions of my good friend Gahein. (I haven’t seen him much lately it was good to visit with him tonight.)

So, fine, my tumblarity is at 12. So what. If you want the fun stuff, the stuff I think is cool looking, hilarious, or weird, go check out Soundlessw Diversions. That’s where it’ll be. But that doesn’t mean this account is going inactive, the stuff on this account will just relate more to soundlessw than to other people. That was, after all, the purpose of this blog. To inform you about soundlessw(me), not for you to look at pictures of adorable puppies and funny videos.

Anyway, there ya go.

stuffaboutminneapolis:

Dear Recession, If you are done being a dink, and have gotten tired of ruining people’s lives, I would love to see this beautiful 56 story building go up in downtown Minneapolis. We were all set to go on this project and then the housing market collapsed, and construction costs went through the roof. Please, let me have my Nicollet.

Hmm, tumblr is being an ass to me today.

Also, just finished the artworks page for constancecasey.com. All thanks to the awesome people that made Gallerific, an awesome jquery script. So cool.

Now it’s time for a shower and a meet-up with Gahein!

quoteworthy:

I believe in God, but not as one thing, not as an old man in the sky. I believe that what people call God is something in all of us. I believe that what Jesus and Mohammed and Buddha and all the rest said was right. It’s just that the translations have gone wrong.
