Eliza Gauger: I can’t get it out of my head, a comment Warren Ellis made months ago about the blog being, effectively, dead. The blog as a medium unto itself, that is. He may have been paraphrasing Bruce Sterling in turn, but I find myself agreeing.

Andrew Rilstone takes a long look at fandom, comics, WATCHMEN, Idea Space, adaptations, and much more. It’s a PDF, and for some reason there is no HTML version, but it is completely worth it. This guy is good.

A small love-letter to my favorite game. As noted by the publisher, “Greatest” here means “voted as favorites by the denizens of GameSpite’s forums.” Still, it’s always good to see Parish writing about CT.

Written by Nick Disabato (nickd), soon to be self-published: I’m writing a book called Cadence & Slang, due in late 2010. It’s about interaction design, which is the art and craft of making technology easier to use. There have been many products in the past decade that take generous advantage of good design – the […]

It actually travels through time (See about 1:00 in the video for the awesome part), and leaves fire trails as in the film and my dreams.

A company called Volomedia was just granted a patent on “a method for providing episodic media.” and the EFF is tackling it. It walks like bullshit, talks like bullshit, and smells a whole lot like bullshit. The EFF is looking for examples of prior art (Prior to 19 November 2003).

Sketched and screenshotted examples of what the Chrome OS (the open source project is called Chromium) is going to look like. The goal is a noble one: An OS that boots super fast (under 10 seconds), gives you instant access to a modern web browser (WebKit) and gets the hell out of your way. I […]

Happy birthday to Rocky and his Friends. If I’m funny, there are two reasons: My mom, and Rocky & Bullwinkle. I guess that is three, but the moose & squirrel are a team.

I’m sure the sentiment is more widespread than this one rep. Update: AT&T says it’s a hoax, and they’re probably right. Consumerist gets it, though: it doesn’t matter if it’s “true” or not. It felt true, and that speaks volumes about AT&T’s business and culture.

My eight-year-old son, Joel, comes into my office to ask if there’s a worse swearword than fuck. “No,” I say. There’s a silence. “You’re lying,” he says. “There’s none worse than fuck,” I say. Joel narrows his eyes. “I know you’re lying,” he says. He leaves the room. With a setup like that, you know […]

Umberto Eco on his new exhibition in the Louvre. The list is the origin of culture. It’s part of the history of art and literature. What does culture want? To make infinity comprehensible. It also wants to create order — not always, but often.
My name is Phil Nelson and I make beautiful things for a troubled world. I'm a designer / developer / writer / director / editor / narrator at Occipital.
