Todays date is the 28 July 2018 NZST. And we are headed rapidly into a technology singularity. Exponential growth into an unknown apex of human consciousness. It’s been talked about a lot and it falls to any writer to write something new about it. Or write it in a new way. So without further ado I will attempt to record my thoughts on the matter … Continue reading Our rapid accent to singularity
Never in my born days have I been so stressed playing a video game. Love-child of French developer Quantic Dream, Heavy Rain is video-game experimentation done right. The story follows four characters, a cop, a reporter, a private investigator, and a father, in their quest to find the Origami Killer: a serial murderer infamous for leaving a trail of drowned young boys, each with an orchid on … Continue reading Review – Heavy Rain

At the height of the Wii’s sales, Nintendo President Hiroshi Yamauchi was the wealthiest man in Japan. The highest-grossing film of all time, Avatar, made US$232.2 million in its first weekend, while recently, Grand Theft Auto V made US$1 billion in the same time. That’s 1 million, 100 times, in 72 hours. Hotcakes. The most exciting development in consumerism right now, followed closely by mainstream solar power and … Continue reading Something Wicked This Way Comes
You’re trailing through a landscape of tumbling hills and crashing mountain faces with bag of Scroggin, a fanny pack and the dirt road for company.
