Here’s what I’m up to these days.

January 2025
Housing
In December we finalized the purchase of a new house, and sold our current house (in a brief 3 days). We celebrated Christmas but also spent a lot of time oacking for thr move. Moving into January, the focus is now the move itself which will happen mid-month and getting settled into the new place.
This website
December saw some improvements to this website, but it still falls short of what I’d like it to be. January should see some improvements to the homepage, which content gets promoted to the blog page, and pages for media that I’ve read / watched / listened to.
Game design
An idea I had previously, inspired by the Amazon Prime series 007: Road to a Million was to create a interactive geolocation based game. To flesh out that idea further, I am rewatching 007: Road to a Million and reading the book The Art of Game Design: A Book of Lenses by Jesse Schell.

This website
After reading a number of thought provoking articles on sharing work and connecting with people, I’ve decided to become more intentional with this website and share more of what I’m doing, what I’m reading, and what I’m thinking about.
This necessitates a bit of a redesign of the website so apologies in advance, this website is probably going to get worse before it gets better.
Housing
Suzy and I are in the process of purchasing a new home and selling our existing house. This month the focus is basically on the paperwork, whether legal, finance, or insurance. The practical matters of moving will become a concern in January.
This is putting a lot of other priorities on hold temporarily (all my synth building gear is already tucked away in boxes), so this list is going to be a bit shorter for the next few months than it otherwise would be.
