I'm working on this site in the total darkness of a blackout—glow little MacBook, glow. As far as I can see outside the only lights come from occasional passing cars and the soft orange luminance from the half of Ann Arbor that still has power. It's just after midnight and the power company doesn't expect the blown transformer that (aparently quite literally) exploded earlier tonight to be fixed for another eleven or twelve hours. Iteresting how we're so depedant on power. I actually kind of like the quiet; I just hope everyone in the apartments around me is warm and have enough blankets.

So, after a grueling three week effort filled with tacos and Pepsi (it wasn't actually that grueling—and there was actually more pizza than tacos), Silvanti.com is in a mostly manageable state and, as you are aware, in a form that is in adequate shape to be put online.

There are a few things to watch out for, as follows:

- Video trailers for my personal projects (in Features and Shorts) being very low quality since they were uploaded to YouTube when YouTube was streaming videos as Flash instead of H.264 (don't worry if that sounds like Latin, it basically means YouTube's videos are now widescreen and in much better quality).

- Comments in this blog might be wonky.

- The contact form should work fine and is the preferred method of contacting me, but if you use that form and don't get a response within 24 hours, please drop me a line at TedescoWebmail (at) gmail (dot) com.
