Podcasting is Addictive
Free Talk:

I have discovered....Podcasting.

Hooray. I feel all modern and hip now.

There are a number of really cool-looking science feeds that I'm busy subscribing myself to.  My mind explodes.  I love free information. This is a much better option that all those audio lectures I've been perusing on eBay. Though I can't say I'll never buy all those lectures, of course. I'm just a nerd like that. Anyone got any favorites? So far I'm subscribed to Naked Scientists Naked Science Radio Show, Science Update Podcast, NPR: Science Friday, This Week in Science - The Kickass Science Podcast, aaaand Democracy Now! (if any of you are familiar with Amy Goodman). Fun, fun, fun.  Stuff to listen to on my way to and from clinical assignments (and the commute to actual college, of course).


Doodle of the Moment:


Here is a look into Parthenian, the initial setting for Rainshadow. Taylor pen sketched this one a couple of months ago - back when we had free time in the summer months.  The is the city that Kazuo approaches in the prologue snippet I posted last time. (The snippet is friend-locked, so you'll need to be on our friends-list to view it.  If you want to be on our f-list, leave a comment.) Parthenian seems a bit vacant here, hahahaha. Didn't bother with drawing the people at the time.

Looks definitely medieval-style. Is it a castle town? Very nicely drawn.

Wish I could try this podcasting thing, but I suppose I'll have to stick to newspapers, internet, and news channels for the time being ^^

Hmmm. Castles? I never really thought of it that way. The first impressions came from looking ruins of ancient cities. Kind of a mishmash of "lost" cities like Ephesus, Palmyra, Baalbek, Volubilis, Thugga, Sabratha, etc... Interesting ruins to look at, those. Our first inspiration came from the stone wall design of cities like Jerusalem (only so far as stone goes). Ah. Anyway, so it's not medieval-style, but it is hard to discern from such a small slice of the city.

As for pdcasting. I haven't made much time to listen to what I've downloaded, so maybe I should stick to hard-copy media too. Eheheh. I keep meaning to put the segments of news on my MP3 Player but...I haven't LAZY!

I'm not too good when it comes to architectural criticism, I must admit. I was searching for an architectural term to refer to and came up woefully short, and just settled on "castle town" - I hope you'll forgive me. It does remind me of a ruin too. I can definitely see Jerusalem in that drawing, now that you mention it. But yes, it would be useful to see more of the city ^^;
