Renee and I watched this Russian movie at Arndale last night, called Night Watch Nochnoi Dozor, not bad to be honest, Renee didnt like it as much as me, but still enjoyed it as she got a headache from reading the subtitles while engrossed in the action. Me, being analytical on films, found the cinematographyContinue reading “Night Watch/Nochnoi Dozor”

Yes, I have been meaning to put this up ages ago, as I should really do a Adelaide 3D community. But having worked in 3D a lot, here are some tips for some budding 3D people that I think might help thier demo reels. Animation – show shape, weight, balance, timing.

I’m a computer nerd. There, I’ve said it. I could no longer in good conscience don the garb of a hip Adelaidian, well-worn black shoes concealing the binary truth of my nature. Nope, I’m not the guy who thinks getting fingered on an IRC is pretty damn funny. I’m the one who rolled his eyesContinue reading “Nerd….yup that’s me!”

The trip with Renee to Whyalla was awesome, so good to relax, even though we had a bit of a stressful time when her brother called up about herContinue reading “Sorry for the delay”

’tis Monday yet again, back at work. Listening to the hundrum of the annoying phone next door as the receptionist can’t be stuffed answering the phone, also the air conditioning from the other side freezing both Renee and my bot bot’s off even if it is 35 degrees outside. Well, this weekend (Sunday) past wasContinue reading “Another week goes by…”

Anywayz, I just gotten Irix 6.5.15m loaded on the machine and was in the process of getting all the apps that I like to use installed andContinue reading “God I miss my old SGI machine”

I have a theory, and I wonder if it can be proven. Working as IA, I’ve talked with a lot of people who feel that there are fewer information architects today than there were during the dot com peak.

If we look at a computer complete with operating system, we discover a hierarchy of apparently relatively autonomous languages, beginning with hardware, and working up to the user interface. These might include machine language, assembly language, macroassembly languages, compiled and interpreted languages, scripts, graphic interfaces, and so forth. The fact that I know 16 differentContinue reading “Languages rant”
