Tease – Revealed
The other day I teased about something that was coming up this friday. Well today is friday so read on to find out what I was talking about. It has a lot to do with pointy ears, but not the vulcan kind.
UPDATE: I’ve added the video at the bottom of the post
…hold the phone, there's more
Tease
Well there’s not a lot to say until Friday but I’m really excited about it. Take a look at the video after the jump for *slightly more info.
Dec Pic Project 2010
Every year for the last 3 years I’ve done the December Picture Project or “Dec Pic Project” where I take a photo of myself everyday of december. It all started when people complained that my only profile pic was the one of me peeking out of the trash can, which I am highly fond of.
Also in addition I started doing this project every 6 months, you can find the June Pic Project announcement here.
Though the project also prompted me to get a new camera that year which I still use. Though with having an iPhone4 it’s almost a toss up between using the two. I’d still like to have a nice DSLR like a Canon 7D or even a Canon 5D MarkII and I’d even settle for a Canon T2i (there was an amazing deal on it….anyone want to buy me an early xmas gift?)
So for the next 31 days follow along with the Dec Pic Project
I’ll be updating both my Flickr and my Facebook with the pics. Enjoy.

If you’ve been living under a rock. There’s the new fangled thing called 3-D.
What? It’s not new? It’s old? Since like 1922? What? Liar.
No, you’re serious? Well, would someone also please inform George Lucas.
In case you didn’t know. Mr. Lucas is planning on re-releasing, wait or is it re-re-releasing? Since he already re-released the “special edition” of the original trilogy. Or is it re-re-re-releasing, since the DVDs were different than the theatrical re-releases. But then there’s the upcoming Blu-ray set. So I think he’s re-re-re-re-re-re-releasing all 6 films in 3-D. Too bad he’s not including either of the Ewok movies or the Christmas special. Nuts.
Bang, Bang, You’re Dead (digitally)
I walk a fine line when it comes to playing games. Either I’m completely obsessed with them or I’m fine without them. It’s hard for me to find a middle ground. I’m hardcore or distant, the word casual doesn’t exist in my gaming vocabulary.
Playground Games
This post is a response (in sorts) to a little video posted by Barrett Garese (@syptap). He has since written a followup article and David Nett has also chimed in on the discussion. Taryn O’Neill had also posted her own thoughts about the state of web video content creation here. Please watch the above mentioned video first. UPDATE: Zadi Diaz has added her thoughts here. (I’m sure there will be more to add too). UPDATE: A TubeFilter article and a blog post by Ben Brusell and a great podcast called New Mediacracy did an episode called “Episode 18: The One About “IndieTV” Versus “Immersive Entertainment””
The Frugality of Time
If you know me, then you know that work has been less than stellar for me this year.
I wish I had more (paying) work, in the entertainment industry or other work. But nonetheless I’ve come to learn to appreciate the changes these things have necessitated. Most notable the usage of time.
square blocks, round holes
Spent some time in thought and these John Mayer lyrics kept creeping to the front of my lobe.
Something’s missing / And I don’t know how to fix it / Something’s missing / And I don’t know what it is / At all
