Preparing for the Insectoid! performance in London next Thursday. Just a little preview for ya!


Everything is happening tomorrow!

It would seem that 29th April is quite a popular day for activities. There’s Pub Conversations at The Spotted Dog, the 4th Birmingham Bloggers Meet (you guys need a web page!) at Rootys and Stitches and Hos at The Hare and Hounds. Lots to choose from, so take your pick!
Surprisingly I’ll be at Stitches and […]

I’ve been further experimenting with gadgets! This time I’m trying to get iPod Linux onto my iPod (who woulda thunk it!).

New Chip Tune - Dolphins

Project planning can get really tiresome and boring, so I spent the bulk of my evening learning how to use LSDJ better, with help from a tutorial on 8BitCollective. Here are the results:

I’m having a few problems with the volume at the mo. You can probably hear a very quiet noise in the background, and […]


Ditching Gallery2

From the beginning of this blog I’ve used Gallery2 to handle the portfolio side of things. I’m now ditching it in favor of NextGen Gallery. Gallery 2 is great and all, but integrating it properly with Wordpress is more trouble than it’s worth. Expect some disruption during the transition

Even when you’ve been a practicing artist for years, it’s always good to go back and relearn something. I’m learning from the Andrew Loomis books


My first chiptune

I made this quite awhile ago on Trippy H, but only now found the damn cables to show y’all.

Gameboy Video

Now that I have the Gameboy Camera and Printer, LSDJ and will soon have the Transferer and 32M Cartridges I’m hoping to make something like this

One thing I also really like is this dance piece:

I would’ve like to have seen the dancers incorporate more erratic movement and even some sort of costumes (Princess Peach and […]
