I joined a Bandcamp alternative called Subvert. its quite similar to bandcamp in function, but its a co-op, not owned by private equity firms it takes a lot of momentum to get a new platform off the ground, but I hope people try it. bandcamp wont be around forever www.subvert.fm/escote

reading this post in juxtaposition with the example article they used is really jarring if you make 250 million bucks maybe you could peel off a 0.1% of that money and help fund the games journalism that we all desperately need if you make silksong or subnautica ca$$$h I hope you invest back

Photos I took of buildings that no longer exist

saw this on an ACT UP poster from 1988 at the Poster House museum today. the more things change :)

sometimes you get a very distinct type of review, and its a nice feeling

Quad Damage

Mixtape: I think what rubs me the wrong way is that its disingenuous, in a medium that is starving for personal stories If you grew up in 80s australia, I want to see that life. dont feed me generic john hughes PNW nostalgia for a teen life you didn't have. be Personal. be Specific, not Generic

I never learned how to do vertex painting in softimage so its something Ive literally never done. I like it in concept though, wish I could do it

Ancient Greek ballots used to kick politicians out of Athens! Broken pieces of pot, known as ‘ostraca’, were used in a democratic process known as an ‘ostracism’. If a candidate received 6,000 votes, they were exiled for 10 years! Ostraca inscribed ‘Themistocles’, 482 BC 📷 by me #Archaeology

proof Im not a millenial: I dont know a single one of these songs or even half of the bands

This country is being run like it was bought out by private equity stripped for parts to be sold off in liquidation.

kinda sad to not be doing TOJAM this year, but that new george brown building just isn't the same... also getting kicked out of the building at 11pm each night really kills the late-night component of a Jam, thats the witching hour where a lot of us night owls are just getting started...

can a Unity developer please recreate this project for me? Ill pay fat stacks of casssshhhhh

easily one of the best frames in animation history

protip: never sell your IP off to a larger parent company, unless you are excited to watch it die, or worse, get paraded around as a zombie version of itself exceptions are something like minecraft where you get like 3 billion dollars. for 3bil I can make more IPs, I am full of ideas.

these are all such amazing films and I would not trust a theatre of Torontonians to be quiet or reverent enough for me to enjoy them in a public setting last time I tried to watch a serious film at the revue, there was a gaggle of stoned teenagers at the back giggling and throwing popcorn around

Im seeing so much momentum in the homebrew Dreamcast space right now that my ..dream... of making a Dreamcast game might actually come true someday wow... just imagine... a real dreamcast game.. unreal

Sneak Peek Teaser for Column Address Strobe Hacked Video Synthesis by me (circa 2019) using modified RISC consoles and DV Cam artefacts

whats the best movie with ninja stars? (Shurikens)

Back in 2019 I composed a ton of music using multiple TX802 FM synths (the rack version of a DX7 mkII), totalling 16 tracks of complex FM. Lots of experiments with FM vocals/formants and percussion. The pandemic hit and I shelved the album for many years. Finally going to release it this week!

Traditional cel-based animation studio. I don't care how baroque it is, I want to see pigments and lights go through glass lenses and get recorded onto celluloid.

I realize most people probably follow me cause they know Jazzpunk. Does anyone follow me for my music? trying to get a sense if I should bother reporting music stuff here

My heart weeps for this swan's utterly decimated habitat, Lake Ontario has tons of these majestic birds; they all got fucked Ford and all his ghouls are scum of the earth. if there was justice, someone would bulldoze all of their homes to make way for an Illegal Kickback Spa that nobody asked for

I regularly find PS1s, Ps2s and PS3s for under 30 bucks anyone can have the retro console of their dreams quite cheaply. its not gate-kept. sure maybe the discs are expensive, but guess what? for 20 bucks you can now get a special ps2 memory card that allows you to play any PS2 ISO on it

nothing but ire for both wishing every raised Denali/F350/Sierra etc would plow into every wedge-shaped super car owned by spoiled rich kids and flip over

for some inexplicable reason I love Street Fighter II. but I have zero interest in the fighting game part. its more a comedy(?) game to me, the character designs are so interesting. I just want these characters in a space where you can interact with them in other ways. theres so much potential

This, but for education, too!

You know how in a library no one’s trying to sell you anything? That’s how the internet was.

Yep. If you want a seat as a disabled person these days, you need to take your own along as a mobility aid. My house & car boot are cluttered with Rollators / Folding Wheel chairs / Shooting ‘sticks’.
