I dreamt my thumbs were broken. They swelled up and hurt and I couldn’t decide which hospital to go to so wandered up and down a curving road until I woke up. Consulting dream dictionaries I find that this is highly ambiguous […]

Grandtextauto’s a blog that keeps discussing stuff I’m interested in. Noah wrote a review of Marie-Laure Ryan’s Narrative as Virtual Reality (an excellent book) and its generated some discussion, including comments from Marie-Laure herself. Nick’s posted a review of MelbourneDAC. On a […]
