Missing everyone at @w3c #TPAC - multiple delayed flights, luggage stil MIA, decision to return home and attend the Board meeting remotely, and flight options limited by luggage uncertainty mean I'm unlikely to make it there.

Roundup #021 - ALL CAPS when you spell the man name
Alright there! It's been a while hasn't it, sorry about that! It's two-fold really: life and work has been really busy recently and I've fallen deeper down the virtual pinball-building rabbit hole, but more on that in a bit!
At the minute,
“Meeting detected!! Let’s start transcribing AI Meeting Notes!!“
No thanks, Notion, I’m just listing to Aesop Rock via my audio interface … 😂 (Fantastic album btw! 👉 https://aesoprock.com/collections/i-heard-its-a-mess-there-too)
[Quits Notion ¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

Scared to Post Your Work
podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/martinaflor/episodes/Scared-to-Post-Your-Work-e3ai1qi

What a wild start – this is going to be an amazing match now … 🤩 #PSGFCB

To Affinity and Beyond
If there is one thing that I’ve learned in my roughly 30 years of working with design tools, it is that they come and go and that you should always stay curious and be open and ready to learn something new. As a teenager, I made my first clip-arty design attempts in CorelDRA...

I am STOKED on my latest progress with ‘GNARLYBOT’ - my reskin of the 1990 pinball table ‘Radical!’. The past 3 nights I’ve put in a tonne of work to make the playfield and plastics all custom (with still a lot more to do!) but I am really thrilled with how it’s looking!!
