Hey there! Brian Dys here — I’m a visual and visceral person at heart. Ever since my mom lent me her old film camera, I fell in love with photography. All of my creative musings were exemplified by my second brain, the computer. This journey is a topsy-turvy ride of creative pursuits — from electronic music to UX design.
I enjoy every dull and wild moments of it — yes, this life of mine that I share with a woman named Jaycelle and a boy named Bryce. Take a peek into my kaleidoscope!
I dabble in creating a framework in HTML and CSS because I connect how sleek a design is on the outside to its inside and to how good it works.
Here’s Jony Ive in an interview with Time to ’nuff said it:
Objects and their manufacture are inseparable. You understand a product if you understand how it’s made.

I’ve watched Gravity and thought that Ryan Stone was only dreaming when she landed on Earth. A couple of days after, I’ve seen The Oscars 2014 and heard Karen O’s The Moon Song.
I thought it was the theme song of Gravity so I remixed some clips of the movie while the oh-so-dreamy song plays in the background.
I’m lying on the moon
My dear, I’ll be there soon
It’s a quiet and starry place
Time’s we’re swallowed up in space
We’re here a million miles awayThere’s things I wish I knew
There’s no thing I keep from you
It’s a dark and shiny place
But with you my dear I’m safe
And we’re a million miles awayWe’re lying on the moon
It’s a perfect afternoon
Your shadow follows me all day
Making sure that I’m okay
And we’re a million miles away~ The Moon Song by Karen O

You see the “</>” icon below the image? That’s the embed action which you will see along with all (I assume) images in Getty’s website.
Getty Images is leading the way in creating a more visual world. Our new embed feature makes it easy, legal, and free for anybody to share our images on websites, blogs, and social media platforms.
It’s OK to have additional information (at the bottom) as long as Flickr keeps it neat where most of the images are my own.
Days of erasing out watermarks are so long ago.

Pencil is built for the purpose of providing a free and open-source GUI prototyping tool that people can easily install and use to create mockups in popular desktop platforms.

For wireframe-creation. It can also create prototypes by linking different pages of your project. So you can do something like “activate this and that will happen.”
Remember my humble beginnings in Photoshop and didn’t have the files to prove it because my hard drive crashed? Well, it really did and that will be another story.
The second batch of practice files are still with me though. Not everyday did I experiment on lo-res stock photos and found pictures on the internet. So I could’ve not improved drastically from the first few years to the next.
During the late 90s, armed with an amateurish guitar-playing skill, I got hooked in playing with electronic music using MTV Music Generator in PlayStation 1. And a couple of years after, I upgraded to an early version of Fruity Loops.
Here’s an example of what I managed to produce in the PlayStation:
How I magically got that in MP3 format? I hooked a PC mic in front of the TV speaker while PlayStation is playing the song.
The whole point of this is that I was so excited to design my own (imaginary) album covers. I consider these designs part of my practice files – created out of pure enjoyment.
After weeks of design planning and working late nights, Metro Manila Roadway Tablet has launched during the Metro Manila Traffic Management Summit on February 14, 2014.
Our website’s purpose is to inform the general public (especially those living in Metro Manila) of each project’s status and important information.
