This is week 153.

In which we found the studio littered with phones of all shapes and sizes, taking mobile design to the next level.

Most of our time was spent on our upcoming game Perloo. The audio team – Ella Empress and the Layers of Reality – delivered some otherworldy work this week. We demo'ed the game to Kars at Hubbub and besides some solid criticism, he called the game 'fiendishly hard'. We'll take that as a compliment.

Also: concept development and some explorational sketching for Murk, debugging Android 'features' of the most vexing kind, final touches on some new things for Navid Nuur and talk about the best places to drink coffee in Brasília.

This is week 151.

This week, Casper and me gave a seminar on Heidegger's essay The Question Concerning Technology to Media Technology students at Leiden University. The essay tries to determine what the essence of technology is, and how it has changed our relationship with nature. Its an interesting read, especially for 'makers' like us for whom we think it is essential to develop a critical stance towards technology.

Project-wise, we had a small celebratory moment after hearing that a research grant for a project we've been developing with Lauren McCarthy got approved. More about project Murk later; we have a game to finish.
