Art Fart
About 2 weeks ago i was invited to give a presentation at this big serious professional mini-conference called Interface(s) held and organized by SAT, the venue where we have our GAMMA events. Anyway. In true indie fashion, i was kinda drunk and said a lot of silly things. Watch me blame art for the ills of the industry, give a metaphorical blowjob to Cactus and generally mispronounce almost everything i said. Also, swearwords!
The talk can be viewed online in its entirety right here. Ignore the lengthy french intro, the talk itself is all in english. With a funny accent. You can also watch the other presentations here.

I have no basement, does a dark room still work?

Aim Low: What The Industry Can Learn From The Indies…
I found this piece of greatness while reading the Kokomori Collective’s Site. Member Phil Fish (most well-known for Fez) recently did a talk at a conference known as Iterface(s), held where the Collective organizes it’s GAMMA events. In the Kokomori …
