two weeks ago I was confronted with my data in a hard way. My large storage device “Drobo” refused to operate after I upgraded it with another 2TB drive. The drive became unresponsive and after a while it did came back giving me the opportunity to retrieve some data…since this was my largest storage device I had to make sacrifices to the data I could retrieve, so I had to delete all my movies, series and software I had collected over the years. Luckily I did manage to backup my photography work. That same week my laptop died and it has been sent back to Apple for repairs. Fortunatly I do hold regular backup sessions, but it’s still a hassle and I’m once again aware that all data is fleeting, and no storage medium is safe from harm. Photo’s can burn, disk drives will fail…it’s time holographic data crystals are made…at least they seem stable enough….

For the Teleidoscope Theme: Technology It scares me sometimes that I’m so addicted to using technology. The way we are dependent on it in our everyday lives for good and for bad. edit I changed the light a bit in this edit as I found the whole image to come out a bit dark here on Flickr and my mbile devices. Also: I've entered the "Artist Wanted - The Power Of Self" competition again this year, and included some of my selfportraits for the competition. All I need from you is to cast your vote and tell your friends too! I could win a whole year expenses paid and I'd be enormously gratefull.
