Authentic Pronunciation

I’m working on making lots of games for you people, which is why I don’t have enough time to write something interesting. So here’s a video of David Mitchell talking about linguistic authenticity and what happens when you scrutinize language too much.

Live ERT feed (Greek)

The Greek government is trying very hard to silence these journalists, who have finally stopped doing what they’re told and are showing us what real television should be like. I’ve put the player behind a more tag because it autostarts.

Links! 03/06/2013

Time for more links. Oneiropolis Compendium: The Moddhey Dhoo. I’m kind of sad the Compendium can’t get more attention; I think it’s some of the best writing I’ve ever done. I don’t think there’s a lot like it on the internet. Anyway, here’s a new entry. Scientists As Heroes: Greg …

How are you?

So, my dental surgery didn’t go so well. I have a giant gaping wound in my mouth, a tooth with a hole in it that should have been fixed, no way of eating, trouble closing my mouth properly, and a surplus of anger, disappointment and despair. But what about you? …

Verenaday!

Today is Verena’s birthday, so I won’t be online much. Instead we will have some nice food and go to the zoo (even though it’s raining) and then to the cinema. It will be a wonderful day, rain or no rain. Yes. We will make it so, as Jean-Luc might …

A Dialogue Tree Grew In My Garden

Links! Rechts! Links! A lovely podcast called Dialogue Tree decided to talk to a strange hairy man about Greenlight, poverty and the future of gaming. He’s not very coherent, because he’s a caveman and he’s afraid of phones. Verena wrote about 2012, 2013, and her accident. Have you been keeping up …

Some Links to the Past

Twitter is an evil thing; it makes you feel like you’ve been writing, but everything you write disappears down its near-unsearchable archives within minutes. I’ve been hard at work and I’ve got lots of things to announce in the next few days, but the blog has been entirely too quiet. …

Birthdays, Teeth and Stuff

So. It’s Verena’s birthday, so I won’t be working much today. The Sea Will Claim Everything is almost done. One of my teeth cracked yesterday, so I’ll be spending tomorrow being experimented upon by a dentist. The Oneiropolis Compendium sort of got mentioned in the Guardian. We were just runners-up, …

Cat Scan

I was scanning some new images for The Sea Will Claim Everything when our cat walked by, and I decided that there are easier ways of creating cat-based art than murder and handbaggification. Note the extra leg, which only becomes visible under special circumstances.
