Today I have been mostly thinking about tuna. This is not as uncommon as an occurrence as it probably should be, but the fact still stands – Tuna. Last night I had tuna sandwiches for my tea, a vice that I indulge most weeks. Due to this regularity of tuna consumption I have been, over [...]

I am now return-ed to fair London after a couple of weeks of wandering to the extreme points of the compass. Well, Connecticut and Scotland anyway.
Firstly, I spent a joyful week experiencing the delights of flu in a foreign country while drinking in the delights of sunny Norwalk, Connecticut. Well, alternating between sitting in a [...]

Indiana Jones and The Crystal Skull Teaser Trailer
Apart from Cate Blanchett’s silly hair I am pleased, although some of the stunts in the trailer do seem a little sillier than I would expect. However, I am a benevolent god and Spielberg and Lucas may continue breathing for now. Watch out though badger-bearded one, your time [...]

The lovely gentleman of Strobist has said many things about flash that I have been playing with, [...]

I am a fan of Messrs Tarantino and Rodriguez (especially Mr Rodriguez, who I will worship as a God if I ever enter the mysterious world of the filmmaker more than as a random runner and clapper board guy who can’t clap the board properly) and waited eagerly for Grindhouse to appear in the UK.

While browsing the interwubs the other day I came across something that piqued my interest. I am, although often quietly so, rather interested in the joy of media distribution, DRM and the like, and when I find something that seems to be trying to do things differently (especially if it’s ‘right’ in my head) then [...]
