I always loved High Fidelity for its subtle stylishness, its hardcore pretentious (musical) geekiness, and having one of my favorite Jack Black performances. I decided to watch it again after realizing the parallels to recent stuff in my life. There's a lot to this movie I can relate to, some of the emotions now much more than before, but other than the introspection of John Cusack's character, I don't really want to relate to him. Besides the obvious downer attitude, he's not very smart. Especially about the womens. |

| Going to Seattle |
[Jul. 9th, 2008|10:46 pm] |
July 25th I'll be flying out to Seattle for the weekend for the first time EVER. I'm going with friend/colleague/investor Timothy Fitz. Potentially we'll be staying with a friend, but otherwise winging it.
Now, for some reason I have a number of LJ friends in that area, so I WOULD LIKE TO HANG OUT WITH ALL OF YOU. Or whoever is available. Plez let me know if this is relevant to your interests. <3 |

“Plaintiff has a great deal to say,
But it seems he skipped Rule 8(a).
His Complaint is too long,
Which renders it wrong,
Please rewrite and refile today.” — A federal judge responds to a lawsuit that was too long with a limerick (via The Associated Press)

 Whee! This weekend I made a game. It's not done yet... had too much fun fine-tuning. Maybe by the end of the week? I don't think I've made a game since AjaxWar in 2005.
It's called Liquidity for the moment. It's loosely based on the cash flow metaphor I might have mentioned before. I can't wait to add sounds and make it prettier. Core gameplay is there, but needs some spices... powerups, etc. Also more balancing.
Arcade action is fun, but I look forward to prototyping my s3kr1t masterpiece. Also trying to think about how to evoke particular emotional feelings through nonlinear interactive experiences.
TIGdb has VIDEOS now. Snuck that out this weekend too. Then I watched the Cave Story trailer over and over.
And this Fall I'm taking Beginning Acting classes at Foothill. WORD. |
