Using the iPhone as a gamer interface
Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

Apple has finally released their new iTunes app store and everyone is racing to release the hot new game for the iPhone. Although I’ve been eagerly watching the results, I have yet to purchase any of these new games. As a matter of fact, I haven’t even upgraded to the 2.0 software yet. As far [...]

This illustration is either a "hellavant critique of consumer culture" or an excuse to draw kitsch.
Possibly a little from column A and a little from column B.
Mike and I were brain storming yesterday morning about a flier for an upcoming nerdcore show and I said that since the show was the same day that [...]

Upon a cursory glance, building games for the iPhone would be a designers dream. The screen is huge (for a phone), the device is powerful, and then there’s those awesome touchscreen and accelerometer interfaces you get to work with. It doesn’t take long to realize that the novelty of the iPhones interface wears of quickly [...]

Light Speed, real time strategy card game
Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008

Tonight a few friends and I got together at Mission Creek Cafe for our semi-weekly Game Theory night. GT is when where we get together to think/talk/review/create/and play games of all types. Tonight’s most interesting topic was a card game called Light Speed by CheapAss Games, that emulates real time strategy space games (like StarCraft). [...]

Surveying the damage
Friday, January 4th, 2008

The recent storms in the Bay Area may not the storm of the century, but it certainly has caused plenty of damage to our neighborhood and many others. The news here isn’t really that we have some huge tropical storm, but that we even have any weather worth noting. Our mild weather usually consists of [...]

DIY iPhone stand ideas
Tuesday, November 27th, 2007

I had been meaning to create a list of on the go iPhone stand techniques that I’d stumbled upon over the past few months of traveling and gig-ing, but had put the project on hold until Veronica Belmont tweeted me this morning about this blog entry (via The iPhone Blog).
The blog post was about the [...]

New laptop, new projects
Monday, November 5th, 2007

After a few weeks of constant work, I finally had some scratch to purchase a laptop to replace my old G4. Luckily, I had a friend at Six Apart that hooked me up with the person that handles their old inventory. They have a lot of PowerBooks in stock, as well as some PowerBook Pros [...]
