The Great American Tour 2010 – Yellowstone
I’ve spent the last three days bouncing and jolting accross uneven snow covered roads at 35 miles per hour on a snowmobile, the sun and wind in my face (for most of it at least), looking at some of the most stunning scenery in the world. Yellowstone in winter definitlly ranks as one of the most...
The Great American Tour 2010 – Nevada
So the flight out was a bit of a pain. Virgin advertise this big fancy economy plus class ticket with nice big seats, on demand entertainment systems and so on. What they don’t tell you is that the good stuff aint on all of the flights yet. I think there’s a complaint letter going in about...

Podcast: Download (Duration: 1:16 — 1.2MB) My gran passed away last week and the funeral was this morning. Small affair just 5 of us. Played a CD of music she had me create a few years back for the occasion and then there were a couple of readings. Nothing religious, the family is pretty...

The Great American Tour 2010 – Las Vegas Culture
Had no real net access the last few days and my laptop is 100 miles away at the moment. Right now I’m at our hotel after a day of snowmobiling through yellowstone. I’ll save a post about that until I can upload some photos to go with it. But in short: WOW! This post instead is about the second day in Vegas. There is a pinball museum just... [Read more]

What they don’t tell you is that the good stuff aint on all of the flights yet. I think there’s a complaint letter going in about that once we get back. First full day in Vegas... [Read more]
Getting ready
I’m getting ready to head off on holiday for a couple of weeks. Having to be careful how much entertainment I carry. I appear to have a phobia of boredom. Read More →

The Edinburgh winter
We’re having an unseasonably cold and snowy winter this/last year. This is a quick video I took out front and back of my flat. Theres not much to see its mainly a test of iMovie and YouTube to see how easy it will be for me to upload any videos in the future (answer: easy). Read More →
Neutra Face
I think it was about half way through before I recognised the pop song they’re parodying. Via the allways fascinating Bioephemera. Read More →
Ring of Brogar
This is one of my favourite photos from the millions I take every-place I go. Thought I would upload a version big enough to use as a backdrop Read More →

Well that was… …odd. Read More →
Thru You : YouTube music mashup
A music video made up of clips from other YouTube videos and edited together to make a single song. There’s a whole album of them but this is one of my favourites. Most of the time you can’t tell that it wasn’t recorded specifically in this form. Read More →
Out of the window
This is a short story I wrote a few years ago for an evening course on creative writing. I never really had the enthusiasm to put real time into the course after the first few assignments (which I regret and should really do something about, a lack of enthusiasm is the bane of my life). This was always one of the stories I was happiest with and when... [Read more]
The Craft of War: BLIND
This was possibly the first WoW machinima that I actually found impressive. Pretty much everything before that was just some game play with bad voice over. The song may not be a style I really appreciate but the editing is good and I’ve no idea how they animated it. Read More →
The new blog
I’ve switched the blog over to wordpress and put a commercial theme (with some modifications) in place. The whole thing looks a lot better now. I’ll be filling in some select old content over the next few days while I finalise the layout. Read More →
