@samuelwroberts.bsky.social apologies for the random q, but have you ever considered doing a vr focused ep of the pod? I know you've mentioned playing vr games occasionally in the past - but maybe it's too niche/away from the pod's niche to cover?

only @transportforwales.bsky.social can make a 4 minute, 1 stop journey from Cardiff bay to Cardiff Queen Street late and have a 30 minute knock on effect to my 22 min journey 🚂

I interviewed the one and only DrMorro! His ORGANISM trilogy, RITUAL, & OLYMPIA #VRChat worlds are incredibly surreal mash-ups of vast architecture and symbols. We talk about his whole body of work, key inspirations, & some clues to hidden meanings. voicesofvr.com/1681-vrchat-...

Beyond excited to be stepping up as Broken Frontier’s managing editor! So many fun things to come!👀

as a white+british person who grew up in handsworth, it was an absolute joy! it is the definition of well integrated - so many (SO MANY) different cultures all living together and getting along with their lives it was difficult to leave & find that so many other places seemed to be so far behind

This is the official return of a native species lost for over a century.

Welcoming @lydiaturner97.bsky.social as Broken Frontier's new Managing Editor! So exciting. www.brokenfrontier.com/broken-front...

God they were the best

Made a Balanced Stepper. I was exploring a fusion between a slider and a stepper. Came up with an interesting interaction pattern. #swiftui #interactiondesign #uidesign #uxdesign #prototyping

@case.bsky.social www.kickstarter.com/projects/hab... thought you should know about this one if you didn't already - feels very up your street! really charming design - especially love the touches like backup battery + connecting to existing lights.

catching up on #metaconnect going in i was concerned about an all day computer on my face all day with an OS made by the same people making horizonOS those live demos have not done anything to dissuade my fears 😅 meta are great at r&d, but (at least for xr), cannot seem to build good software

spent a couple of days on this but something was missing.... added birds and suddenly it all made sense 🐦🐥🐓🦆🐤

My next course, Whimsical Animations, launches in “Early Access” in 1 week from today! 🎉 The most important thing to know is that registration will only be open for 7 days. You’ll be able to register from Sept 24th to Sept 30th. Otherwise, you’ll need to wait for the full launch, sometime in 2026.

Governments should not wait for international bodies to state the blindingly obvious before acting but now the UN has Labour must use every means at its disposal to stop the wicked genocide.

What would Orwell think about a huge face on a gigantic screen telling a crowd of people they should wage war on foreigners and dissidents? No way of knowing, I guess.

A dream of the fields study

suuuuper happy with this animation i made in @jitter.video a couple months ago revisited it to make some changes recently & really happy with how fluid it is 🏄‍♂️

reform are really pushing HARD in wales. i've had consistent reform leaflets/post through my letterbox over the last year & nothing from other parties. grim to see, very worried for next year

Made a utility that tracks realtime circular motion. Great for gestures in VR. 🐧🪄⭕ #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

i saw someone point out that the selector for time on iphone alarms is actually just a really long list and not truly circular. everything i’ve known is a lie
