Deadlines (something like a phenomenon)

You can read a feature by me in this month's Edge if you're the kind of person who does such things - it's entitled New For Old, and it's on the development of games for retro systems such as the wonderous 3D0.

Next month's Computer Music will contain a tutorial on snare drums as well as that Plaid interview, so be sure to look out for that one.

Also there's been a lot of activity on the Mode 7 blog of late, and Mode 7 itself has been consuming most of my attention, so if you'd like to keep tabs on my "progress" you should go over there.

Meeting Kieron Gillen last week was significantly enjoyable - being highly-successful and also a nice person is something to which everyone should aspire.

TODAY is crunch time for my laptop over at Millennium Music. I have been offered either a concrete deadline for its repair, or a replacement unit - I can only hope that the process goes smoothly and results with me actually being in possession of an object capable of making music. Who knows?
