This week’s earworm: Chronology, by Jean-Michel Jarre. 🎵

This week’s earworm: Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair (Original Game Soundtrack). Might be all the Godot stuff I’m doing at the moment. 🎵

Recent earworm: Samplextra, by Lee Rosevere. 🎵

My latest YouTube binge has been Drew Gooden, and his videos on YouTube and Instagram influencers and trends: an area of online culture I know nothing about. I’m kinda glad that I stayed well away from that area of the internet. Seems like more drama than I can handle. 📺
📺 Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl (2024)

Finished Mind Over Magnet. It’s been a joy watching this come together over at GMTK, and it’s wonderful to see it finally released. Such a fun and delightful game. Two thumbs up: 👍👍
📺 House of the Dragon: Season 2 (2024)
📺 House of the Dragon: Season 1 (2022)

This week’s earworm: Electric Light Orchestra, especially Livin’ Thing. 🎵
If anyone’s interested in the history of Melbourne transport, I can recommend this YouTube channel. He has a few videos on the “forgotten freeways” — freeways planned in the 1960’s that never got built — that I found quite interesting. 📺
📺 Howl’s Moving Castle (2004)

Discovered that Enya is still releasing albums. Started listening to this one over the weekend. Quite good. 🎵
A lot of people I follow online have been recommending Cabel Sasser’s XOXO conference talk. I watched it last night and thought it was quite good. Definitely worth a watch. And yeah, try to avoid the spoilers. 📺
Really enjoyed this YouTube interview with Dr. Alok Kanojia on the Diary of a CEO channel. Very interesting talk about mindfulness, stressors, motivation, amongst other things. 📺
📺 Office Space (1999)

Clip sharing is now available in Pocketcasts for Android! I was looking forward to this feature since I heard it was coming (this was why I was poking around About screens). Here’s my inaugural clip: a segment of Sharp Tech that I absolutely agree with. 🎙️
📺 Dune: Part 2 (2024)
