Some sort of virtual puppetteer game. You could tie it into “being john malkovich”, if you have to have a hollywood link.
Even just a mini game for manipulating your Mii would be cool.

Monday, April 14th, 2008the kindle experience
Thursday, March 27th, 2008To those who wonder if reading off a kindle can be as immersive an experience as a book, I’ve been working thru the mountain climb portion of “The Martians”, and finding myself often feeling a sense of vertigo, as if I were halfway up a 25,000km mountain myself.

rip curtis mayfield
Thursday, March 20th, 2008I knew he’d died semi-recently, if a decade ago can be called recently (no I’m not getting old, now get off my lawn, damn kids!), but didn’t realize I’d been listening to, and liking, his last recorded appearance, the Bran Van 3000 song Astounded.
vista sp1 happy day
Thursday, March 20th, 2008FINALLY!! A “never see this again” checkbox for the new-to-vista warning you get when connecting to a remote machine. So far, SP1 does not appear to have done anything for the terrible stability of wmp11 when ripping dozens of CDs. Update: It appears Vista SP1 breaks remote desktop to the console session. No warning message that it’s making a new session for you. I had to go into taskmgr and see that there were indeed the expected local apps running after all. grr. Update2: It appears I should really search, THEN post more often. Turns out the just changed the flag from /console to /admin. Seems silly, but whatever.
so cool
Thursday, February 7th, 2008I always wanted to do something like this, but I was thinking much more complicated, and far less complete, while probably potentially more detailed. I was going to use a police radio scanner and voice recognition, to automate presenting the city-stream in a human readable, and machine indexable, form. Then again, since they give out people’s names, numbers, address, etc etc, it might have been a little difficult in the end.
blood on the wall
Thursday, February 7th, 2008I’m on my way down the stairs this morning, when this greeted me. I dunno whose it is, or why it happened, but it’s not making me feel good about just renewing my lease for another year.
