Lifelong Learner.

Category: Goals, Plans, Hopes

If you're developing any kind of skill weather it be artistic, or mechanical, I'd suggest taking the Lifelong learner (or Lifelong Student) approach.  Hone your skills continuously, and don't rush it. Your learning never stops, even when you think you've learned all you can, there is always something else you can try. Just take a look at virtuoso guitarists like Paul Gilbert, and Steve Vai. Paul G... » Continue Reading

Burnout and stress

Category: Blogging

I feel burned out.  I just want to disappear from life for a few weeks, get my mojo back. Lounge by a pool. Do some swimming, climb a mountain, something like that. I want to come back to content creation, and work feeling refreshed for a change, but the way life is right now it's going to be quite some time before that is a viable option. I've not even left anything yet. But I need some kind of b... » Continue Reading

Indie Games

Category: Games

Over the last 3 years I have delved more and more into the world of indie gaming, and some friends of mine have lamented my absence from the AAA multiplayer games we played together. They have repeated asked me why I don't come back so I thought I'd write a little thought piece discussing such things. Firstly I find most of the AAA sphere to be quite boring currently, with many games feeling more ... » Continue Reading

Cloudpunk

Category: Games

So I recently finished Cloudpunk for the first time, and I thought I'd share some thoughts on the game. Consider this a mini-review type thing. Firstly lets get the main point out of the way. Yes I would highly recommend playing this game. It is a great story based driving game in a cyberpunk world. The graphics are voxel based so the visuals can seem a little rudimentary when looking at the chara... » Continue Reading

The Mummy (Review)

Category: Movies, TV, Celebrities

So I finally sat down to watch The Mummy. No not the classic Brenden Frasier one, The maligned Tom Cruise version. (Spoilers ahead) Firstly I can't quite tell if it wanted to be a action adventure similar to the previously successful trilogy, or if it wanted to tread a darker line. There are elements of both throughout the movie and cause some of the largest moments of cognitive dissonance I had w... » Continue Reading

Promotion or Grifting?

Category: Music

Recently in a bid to try and build some more of a foundation to my audience on Spotify and YouTube (2 platforms with good discoverability) I have come across a few snakes in the grass so to speak. Their main thing seems to be inviting me to livestreams where they wish to play my music on their streams to a built in audience. As a streamer this gives content for their viewer base and for the stream... » Continue Reading

Google Stadia shutting down January 2023

Category: Games

So Google Stadia is shutting down.  It wasn't well thought out, the tech just isn't there yet, but it was an interesting attempt. If they had made it purely the subscription service it might have survived. But by charging a subscription then making people pay full price for games on top of said subscription, no one wanted it. » Continue Reading

Pinocchio

Category: Movies, TV, Celebrities

So yesterday I watched Pinocchio. The film starts rather nicely introducing you to Jiminy Cricket who's design is a great recreation of the animated original though updated for CG. There are many nods to other Disney properties in Geppetto's collection of clocks, if you look you'll see plenty, and some are brought centre screen during certain bits.  The early segments drag on a little but thankful... » Continue Reading
