Boss Fight - A New Rock Anthem

I don't have too many occasions to be proud of my work... but I'm pretty happy about this. I made it for "Wrath of the Transperator", a Flash game that Matt Korba, Paul Bellezza, Phil Gregorchuck, Mike Brazil and I have been working on for the upcoming B-Game competition. Check out the song, which I composed in GarageBand (the now-ancient '05 edition) with a little much-needed falsetto help from my roommate Adam.

If you're too cool for quicktime, stop whining and download the song here.
More on the game to come soon.

Real American Hero

I have a lot of admiration for a wide range of people, I really do.

But I don't have many heroes, at least not by my own definition. To me, a hero is someone who has earned my unmitigated respect, a rational human being (real or imagined) whose choices, in their context, mirror those I'd like to make in my own life.

So while Batman is clearly a hero, he isn't exactly "my hero." [ed. note: it's the batarangs... don't you realize how silly the batarangs are, Batman? Don't you see?] Celebrities don't usually count either... they're so distant, so nebulous and so "managed" that I just can't bring myself to feel a close connection to them. I've never sat under a blanket, crying about a mouseketeer... it just doesn't seem healthy.

My list of heroes is a private tally that includes four, maybe five people.

This last Wednesday, I met a possible addition to that short list.

My Mom is the Coolest

A little background: As I mentioned before, I've been working on this B-Game project called Wrath of the Transperator with some folks from the IMD (and one talented Business School student). A large part of our job has been in keeping active on the TIG forums, you know, for PR reasons... so a few days ago I posted a song I made, "Boss Fight", as a taste of what the game would bring.

Yesterday, I logged into the forums, just to see how things were going, and saw this.

You might miss it at first... right in the middle of page two. Is that....? No..... is that.... really....?

Greater Than the Sum

If you ever get the chance, try playing Velociraptor Safari while listening to Mariah Carey's "Always Be My Baby". Trust me.
