DetailsAt the Unity Roadshow today in Boston going over all of the latest goodness in Unity 5 — like light bouncing and audio mixer. The audio mixer is cool but it’s a pretty basic DAW – snapshots and blending between them. What I’d love is a great audio sequencer / musical synthesis library. I…
DetailsAh, just found out via Facebook that Toys R Us won’t be renewing it’s lease at the Times Square location when their lease is up next February. It’s been about 15 years since a young grimmy (eh, not that young) helped with the programming and installation of all the fun in that place. I wonder…

DetailsI’ve been thinking of starting a Unity or Rails / Rubymotion group near Hartford CT. Good tips to be found here. http://blogs.unity3d.com/2014/12/11/building-a-user-group-in-your-area/
Something else I’ve got to play around with – I’ve been looking at Meteor for some time – it’s funny how things repeat themselves; reminds me of Ape in PHP, or just regular socket messaging — but this is a nice gem that works similarly to Meteor. The same code runs on the client and…
