We Like the Moooooon!
October 22, 2004Read moreDuncan, always alert for the next big thing, forwarded me a link to Moon Song, an uninhibited proclaimation of love for the moon. “Because we like the moon! It’s not a spoon!”
It took a few minutes for this to grow on me because it’s not a slick piece of production, but there’s something very authentic about a piece like this that that works so little—yet so hard—to entertain. It reminds me of when I was a kid and would make up songs about my sister to annoy her. You know, classic stuff like “Emileeeee! It rhymes with PEEEEEEE!” Heh heh.
Moon Song is a good example of unencumbered creativity that really seeks to entertain on its own merits. The audience may be small, but the motivation and intent is 100% authentic. It’s real content, as far as I’m concerned.

Jenny
October 21, 2004Read more
Jenny came to visit for several weeks. She is a very bouncy and confident cat…and very playful! One of her favorite games with me was to chase things through this tube. If you dangled a small toy mouse on the other side, she would track it and then rush through in the blink of an eye. She seemed to never tire of this.
The view is not nearly as dramatic from the other side :-)

DHTML Lemmings
October 20, 2004Read moreI was browsing shauninman.com, which is a really nice personal-yet-slick site, and came across a couple good links. The inspiring one, other than Shaun’s site in itself, is a version of Lemmings written entirely in Javascript. Not Java. Javascript.
I’m not sure I really believe it. Still, Lemmings is a classic game…go play!
