Carolina is an Artist!

Over the past two days, for a total of about 10 hours, I helped Carolina convert her all-HTML site to an HTML 5 compliant, .txt file based, auto-populating site. I’m pretty happy with how quickly I put the system together.

Cardboard Cut-Out People in a Cardboard Cut-Out World

Last Saturday Marisa had a movie monster themed party, starring herself, Alex, Evan, Heather, Jacob, Carolina, Jessie, Rachel, Stefan, Laura, and myself. They built a cardboard city and we destroyed it. It was quite fun. Finish Reading »

Near the end I sat on the counter for a bit.

Snippets

The Montreal Indies Meetup, which Stephen and his friend organized, went quite well. I created a temporary blog for the project and hopefully soon there’ll be a name for it. After that a proper domain, and then monthly meetings. This could lead to co-working spaces and indie game publishing and all sorts of wonderful, exciting stuff.
