Contest to produce in-game book based on
Cory's next novel

Contest to produce in-game book based on
Cory's next novel 03/29/2005 02:13 AM
Cory Doctorow: When my next novel Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town comes out this July, I'm going to do an in-game signing and talk in Second Life, the massively mutiplayer online world (I did this before, for Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom, and it was really fun!).

To commemorate the event, Second Life's Wagner James Au is coordinating an in-game contest to design a virtual book based on the text of the novel, a digital 3D object wiht turn-able pages, etc. I really hope that what they end up building is more than a simple 3D version of a meatspace book, though: electronic text is so much more protean than printed words, so it would be a shame to constrain it to behaving the way that dumb matter does.

...[F]or the next couple months, in preparation for Cory's appearance, Residents will be creating book prototypes, and submitting them to me for an in-world expo, so the community can choose which one provides the best in-world reading experience. Within 48 hours of the announcement, one Resident had already submitted a screenshot of his own prototype (bottom screenshot), which sharp-eyed readers will recognize as the opening page to Doctorow's Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom, the novel he discussed with Residents at the first Book Club. The one to win the most votes at the Expo will get the honor of publishing Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town in Second Life. (Though of course, my personal hope is that this also helps launch a mini-explosion of virtual book technology in-world.)

Nerve is running a contest for John Ashcroft-themed amateur porn. Celebrity judges Moby, Ted Hope, and John Cameron Mitchell will pick from 15 finalists whose work is now online for your smut-tastic viewing pleasure -- titles include 1-800-4.D.O.J-S+M and The Passion of John Ashcroft. Too bad Nerve decided to post all the vids in WMV only. Some critics argue the format is nearly as restrictive as the policies of the man at whom this contest pokes fun. Link to FB item.

Alias: The Video Game

Alias: The Video Game 04/15/2004 07:38 PM

'Alias' takes on the gaming world: I'm not a big gamer, but this could temp me to start.

The main character — agile, clever and impossibly beautiful superspy Sydney Bristow (played by the agile, clever and impossibly beautiful actress Jennifer Garner) — could easily hold her own with the gallery from "Mortal Kombat."

Add in the fact that "Alias" and its epic, sometimes shocking sometimes schmaltzy storylines can be as engrossing as "Metal Gear Solid," one can convincingly argue that "Alias" is really just a video game that happens to come on your TV every Sunday night.

Apparently Marshall plays a prominent role. As it should be.

If IKEA was a video game

If IKEA was a video game 01/25/2004 12:51 PM
Treating spousally mandated IKEA visits as a video-game seems like a pretty good coping strategy, especially when you've got a walk-through to crib from. This is a screamingly funny piece from The Morning News.

You start this world armed only with a UNIVERSAL FURNITURE-ASSEMBLY ALLEN WRENCH. This is the weakest weapon in IKEA: You will have to hit a person 16 times with it to kill them. So your primary goal in this level is to find more lethal means of dispatching your enemies.

As you enter the SHOWROOM, perform a rolling dodge to the left. Grab a free PAPER TAPE MEASURE and a handful of IKEA EMBLAZONED GOLF PENCILS from the kiosk near the entryway. The PENCILS serve quite well as ranged weapons, but it will take some time to master their use. Before venturing further in the world, stand at the kiosk and practice hurling GOLF PENCILS at patrons as they enter the SHOWROOM. Remember: Hitting the eyes does triple damage.

Now that video games are becoming more like professional sports it should be no surprise that a whole bunch of television programs involving video gaming are set to hit the tube. There have been a few such shows that have come on in the last year or so, but now they're going to be everywhere. It seems to be part of the battle of TV execs to combat the fact that more and more people are playing video games rather than watching TV. So, they figure they'll just throw up some programming that involves video games and hope it works.

Sleek, fast and highly visible, these bright yellow air/space superiority fighters were sure to have struck 01100110011001010110000101110010 into the beige hearts of the attacking Trade Federation forces.

When you give teenagers a bunch of Lego, nine times out of ten your going to end up with a leaky Lego bong that they try to seal up with the shellac from the garage, and you're going to have to take them to the hospital after they inhale still-toxic-even-if-water-filtered fumes. But on that tenth time, they're instead going to create a combination Xbox and Super Nintendo -- the SNEX box, they will call it -- and post those pictures to the internet. Is it the best case mod ever? Well, no, not really, but at least they aren't hepped up on the goofballs. (Thanks, Joey and Reid!)

With the conclusion of the vintage Photo Archives we are going to ask you to to transfer your attention from 3-3/4" figures to 1-3/"4 minifigs with today's LEGO Photo Archive update of the Trade Federation's Battle Droid Carrier which was seen briefly in the opening scenes of the invasion of Naboo. It was a strange set for LEGO to produce but it did make for a cheap battle droid army builder, and I like it which is the only reason I chose it to kick off the LEGO photo archives.
