Academic. Interdisciplinary-minded espresso lover. Classics, modern-contemporary literature, digital humanities, electronic literature, interactive fiction. Goes for bike rides, snowshoes, takes long walks. Stays up too late reading. Equally at home in a pine forest by the sea on the eastern coast of the US as in the lovely snowland of Edmonton, AB. Same handle on Twitter where I'll also still be for now.

NIGHTEͶ ∆If you're making #interactivefiction and #visualnovel , the talks from the VNConf 2023 just got released on Youtube!
A bunch of cool stuff there, on marketing, narrative design and even voice acting direction

My camera shoots fascistsBioluminescence at Shi Shi Beach, Olympic NP in Oct. I went there to photograph the bioluminescence and then a lightning storm showed up out of the blue. It was an extremely difficult exposure to capture and edit!
After a while, I tried to do separate exposures for the lightning and the shoreline, figuring I'd merge them later, but I couldn't even get a 30 second exposure before a bolt blew out the shoreline exposure.

Esther MondragónMuch nonsense is being discussed about LLMs, attributing them characteristics they lack, including agency. I hope the hypnotic allure of these siren songs will pass soon, & we learn from the commotion of beliefs, suspicions & dread. Meanwhile, we must not lose focus on other more human concerns in academia: the hierarchisation and bureaucratisation that are suffocating the institution, the increasing male dominance underneath acceptable declarations of diversity and the monetisation of research.
Widdershins Smith 🐘🥏I'm tired of living like it's the 1600s:
Can I afford eggs at the market?
Are my family going to die of the plague?
Puritans are coming for my sinful lifestyle.
I want modern problems.
Modern Problems.

Tim SmalleySometimes you get lucky, but I also believe you make your own luck.
I was walking down the hill to escape the harsh sunlight engulfing the area I was in. The conditions were sublime, but the light was too harsh. I then found a shaded pocket of the woods covered in hoar frost. Upon turning the corner this scene appeared.
After organising my composition and setting up, I had time for a couple of frames before the moment passed.
