		<description><![CDATA[That I don&#8217;t use this blog anymore. A blog-less redesign of this site may be in order.
In the meantime, find me at these places instead:
twitter.com/essell2
flickr.com/photos/essell/
soundcloud.com/essell
Goodnight, and good luck.

		<title>White and Black</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Am posting photos instead of getting round to writing something. Am well aware of own rubbishness. The quest to rectify said rubbishness continues.
Today&#8217;s theme is black and white. All of these are fairly old.

		<description><![CDATA[Another two months since my last post. I&#8217;m shit. Sometimes I think about how rubbish I am at this regular blogging lark, and I cry like the one on the right:

		<title>Hello Warsaw</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over two months since my last post. Shame on me.
I have an excuse though, which is that I&#8217;ve had a lot going on. It&#8217;s always a rubbish excuse, but this time it&#8217;s actually true, I swear.
Midway is no more, our studio closed down, I became unemployed, I lived with my brother in Northampton for a [...]]]></description>

Why do birds
Suddenly appeeeeear&#8230;
Every time
you are neeeeear?
Just like me,
They long to be
Close to youuuuu&#8230;

Describing something as &#8220;sweet&#8221; is a very rare thing for someone like me. It&#8217;s a very feminine thing to say, you see, whereas I am an extremely manly man. It&#8217;s more my kind of thing to be outside fixing my pickup truck, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A couple of months ago I posted about a bunch of nice skate photos I took at Exhibition Park here in Newcastle. I said that I&#8217;d like to do something similar again sometime, but a little more ambitious, which I&#8217;m glad to have gotten round to last weekend.
This time it&#8217;s a little skate video (well, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A lot of games revolve around challenge, success and failure. They often ask that players invest lots of time in practice, before they can play it well. In some cases, most of that time spent practicing is also spent failing, which can be a problem.
Traditionally, good games deal with this problem by ensuring that whenever [...]]]></description>

		<title>Skate</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Watching this delicious skate video (directed by Spike Jonze and Ty Evans) recently inspired me to head out and take some skate photos.
There was an idea that I&#8217;d been meaning to rip off for some time, from an old PS1 skating game called Thrasher: Skate and Destroy. The loading screens showed multiple, rapidly-taken photos of [...]]]></description>

And then a few from the closing party of the Maker Faire last weekend, full of 8-bit, circuit-bent chiptuney goodness:

		<description><![CDATA[
Back in the day (err&#8230; 2006) on her old radio show, Annie Mac used to play a listener&#8217;s 5-minute mini-mix at the end &#8211; a lighthearted mashup track made from as many different tunes as possible, played over, under and after each other in interesting and amusing ways.
I made one a while back, and sent [...]]]></description>
