The Art of something something dark side….

This is just a little note to mark my progress and thoughts. I’ve been reading Amanda Palmer’s The Art of Asking. It’s long overdue as I remember watching her TEDtalk when it first came out 4 years ago and having my mind somewhat blown by it. And now that I’m 43% through the book (thank you Kindle) I’ve started taking...

Treading the boards

Many years ago, my uncle asked if I want to play the part of a peasant boy getting interrogated by some Parliamentarians as part of a historic tour of Colchester. Living history type scenes right? From there I ended up doing various plays, Shakespeare in the park, and going on to get some training in theatre at the local college....

Time to log out

This post first appeared on Toy Soldiers Unite, but I thought I’d add it to my own site for posterity’s sake. Go enlist with the Army of Toy Soldiers now! Greetings comrades!

Why you need a VPN

Why should I get a VPN? There are a myriad of reasons why you should get a Virtual Private Network (VPN). Getting passed country-restrictions on Youtube and Netflix is nice, but more seriously, your browsing history is being analyzed by your service provider and stored by governments as part of a dragnet for the benefit of ‘our national security’. Anyone...

Burning Man or Bust

For the longest of times I’ve been fascinated by the event known as Burning Man. It’s an unbelievably unique event that takes place every year in the middle of the Black Rock Desert in Nevada. That’s right. A desert. Or to be more exact, playa. Every year, 70,000 people descend upon this lifeless area, and turn it into actual city,...

The BDSM Pin Badge

Alright! For a long time now, this has been on my wishlist but no one did them. So I figured screw it, I’ll do it myself. I present to you the metal BDSM pin badge with butterfly clutch. This variation of the triskele is recognized universally among the kinky and debaucherious, and for those not in the know, well, it...

What If? A stream setup idea

Tonight my mind has decided to focus on a What If scenario. And this What If scenario entails, “What if I was setting up a multi-camera stream for a mini-studio like game to be broadcast?” which led to me thinking of particular elements required. Multiple cameras of decent quality. USB, HDMI, and even SDI. How to capture at least 3...

D&D Cases – Second Batch

I’ve made a new batch of Dungeons & Dragons Cases. Each one is made by myself, cut, glued, screwed and painted or stained. You can buy one for £50. I’ve put a lot of work into these, and it’s part of me raising funds for a laser cutter so I can create even more awesome cases for you table top...

Late blossoming nerddom

It has been abundantly clear over the past 10 years that Nerddom and Geekdom are finally taking their place in the mainstream and are losing the stigma it was once associated with. Dungeons & Dragons, gaming, fandoms, sci-fi and fantasy, etc. It’s glorious. These adventures, these stories, these creations that are coming from the minds of millions are entertaining and...
