- "Magic of the Snowy Owl" dokumentālā filma.
Reklāmas rullītis un īss, bet iespaidīgs ieskats šeit:

Ak, dies. Neviena filma, neviens seriāls nav licis tā sekot līdzi, baiļoties, cerēt, brīžiem spiegt aiz sajūsmas vai brīnumiem.
Skaistums, skarbums, mīļums, bads, izdzīvošana, bet bez ļaunuma, sasodītām intrigām un sīkmanības. Jāizdzīvo gan pūšu mammai, gan lemingam, gan ledus lācim, katrs dara, ko var.
Vairāk par visu pārsteidz mamma, kura vienkārši nolaižas otrā pusē un gaida. Vai viņa zināja?

- Transa zīmējumi

- Vēl viena mierīga nakts, vēl viens mierīgs rīts, kārtējā miglainā diena... Jau sacerējos, ka pienācis pavasaris, bet varbūt tikai atkusnis...

Chicka-tree transs, viss, kas man šogad tiek no Helovīna. Un Fraktālais Pūķis.
Senākos laikos, kad mūsu dators pavilka Word un Paint un neko daudz citu, reāls laika nosišanas veids bija izdomāt, ko vēl iesākt ar peintu. Tieštādās noskaņās zīmēju Pūķa līkni, jo nav pietiekami lielas lapas... Tā tas ir ar tiem fraktāļiem, tu knapi esi sācis, tikko ir palicis interesanti, bet šie jau sasnieguši robežu, un vairāk uz tās lapas iespiest nevar. Uzzīmē vienu ķeksi un tad tikai: copy, paste, rotate, un noliec vietā. Nav tāda kaifa, lai gan, protams, iespaidīgāk, kad pavelk nost.
Pūķi, pūķi, pūķi, pūķi, pūķi, pūķi, pūķi, pūķi, pūķi, pūķi, pūķi, pūķi, pūķi, pūķi...
Nelaime tāda, ka nevar redzēt, ka tā īstenībā ir viena līnija, izskatās pēc cakota rūtiņu režģa, bet tā nav vis, tā ir viena fantastiska līnija, bezgalīgs fraktāls korallis galīga audzētāja rokās.
Pūķa korallis, kuru var audzēt tik dažādos veidos, atkarībā no tā, kur tas aug - izlocīt no papīra, audzēt uz iekšu/leju/mazumā, ja ar zīmuli, Copy/Paste/Rotate/Glue lielumā/uz āru, ja peints. Matemātiķiem droši vien ir citi veidi, man jau tik tā - uz palodzes, Paint podiņā.

- Deus Ex: HR and reluctant fangirling
- 30.10.16 15:25
- Right now I've played Deus Ex: Human Revolution, seen Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, and am planning to get my hands on the original Deus Ex.
Finshing HR started gloriously disasterous, about an hour for the really-not-that-long tutorial mission, half the game to realise how the keys work, all on story mode and dignity free (I learned save-scumming from the original UFO defence; was not a good idea to myself to videogames with that one). Now that that's done, I can use all that knowledge to up the difficulty and see if my pride is laying somewhere there in a vent.
It's really hard to immerse yourself in a game if you're supposed to be a badass ex-SWAT, augmented half-god but you can't even shoot that one guy right in front of you... And since Adam Jensen is not my gender and somewhat attractive, and keeps to himself to the point where I have to walk him into his own bathroom to see that the operation has taken more toll than he lets anyone see, I just stopped trying and assumed the position of someone who just happens to watch over his shoulder. Aside from AJ feeling much cooler, this approach led to two major consequences. First, it took some time and listening to NPCs to grasp the concept of augmentation on a personal level (for someone who's had 50% of his flesh and bones removed without consulting, Jensen is very nonchalant about it). Second, on the opposite side of the coin, I started wondering if I find the new Adam Jensen attractive. So instead of a first/third person experience I got a secong/third person experience.
Generally Jensen would count as very sexy in my book, with that voice and looks, stature and style, and following my general understanding of justice. But then I took a good long look at that scene with him shirtless, and somehow the whole human augmentation debate hopped off the high shelf and landed right in front of me. The black robot arms, the creepy cybernetic eyes, and uncanny rods just underneath the skin over his chest... What would it feel like to hold a hand like that? What does he feel when touching flesh with those alloy fingers? And, how would you make love to someone who has deadly ceramic blades hidden in their forearms? DE suggested that a certain public welcomed and even demanded augmentation in their sex partners, but I just can't really imagine.
DE doesn't delve too deep, it's not that kind of game, they're more concerned about the global impact of everything, and they did a good job, but personally I'd prefer more private details about the guy I'm supposed to impersonate. Partially because of an embarrassing girly crush, but hey, it got me thinking.
