The Westy - The only REAL pier in Brighton.
2008-05-22 00:25:00 If you were to say to me before yesterday if you could chat online with someone for 13 hours and still have more to say, Id have said you were completely bonkers and need a check up from the neck up. But, yesterday that's exactly what I did! Yep, 13 hours I sat here chatting to Matty from the Statesss just chatting about this, that, the other and pretty much everything in between. You know the type of convo, it touched on everything from the meaning of life to bizarre T-shirts, from how dull Vienna (the US town) is, to where we'd be in 10 years time. I learnt a great deal, but still had loads more to talk about, loads more to say, but after 13 hours, my bum had gone beyond numb, my fingers were mere bloody stubs, my eyes red and on stalks, yet my mind contented. Matty is a sweet cute 19 year old American dude, with a liking for odd T-shirts, a passion for computer games, skating, reading and all the other things you would expect from a 19 year old yanky boy. Charming, sweet, inter...

All white in Brighton!
2008-04-06 16:12:00 The moment my eyes fluttered open this morning I knew something was different, I thought I was blind, all I could see was white, I blinked hard, rubbed the back of my hand across my face, nope everything was still all white. Nope, I hadn't had a mass nocturnal emission all over my window in my slumber. Neither had I had a bout of 'Sleep-Painting', my eyes gradually focused - it was snowing! Yes it was bloody snowing! This is Brighton, we don't get snow, it's April, we shouldn't have snow - last year at Easter Angus was down the beach, but, I opened my window to feel the white snow and yes, it was in fact proper snow, cold, wet, white fresh snow and was falling in flakes as big as ya thumb!The white-out from my bedroom window!I got out of bed in a bound and dressed rapidly, I had to have a look around, see if it was settling anywhere else other than the roofs out the back of Shaw Towers. So wrapped up in a Hoody and Prada jeans and iPod blasting in Nickleback in my ears I ventu...
Tina Dico Live at Komedia Brighton - Review
2008-03-07 10:55:00 As per previous post I saw Tina Dico live at the Komedia in Brighton last night. This was in what is known as Komedia Downstairs and is a fairly small intimate venue. The support act who mercifully only played about 25 minutes was called Ain and hails from Dublin. All I can say if that is your day job then you are in trouble. Sorry to be so negative but it was truly awful and hats off to the very English polite crowd who clapped in the right places and didn't make any loud or rude comments. The man knows one melody, in the loosest sense I use that term and played several songs with different lyrics to that same melody. Awful! Anyway to the reason why I went. Miss Tina Dico performed for around one hour fifteen minutes. Short yes but so very good. It was just her and her two guitars along with her beautifully crafted intelligent vocals. I knew she had a great voice from the albums and from seeing some recorded live work but in the flesh so to speak, simply knock out. Emotive, pure ...
Tina Dico @ Brighton plus Count to Ten Review
2008-03-06 11:15:00 I am going to see Tina Dico tonight at the Brighton Komedia. This will be an acoustic gig as far as I know which will be interesting. I have not heard her live before except on video. If you have never heard of her then I suggest looking on her Home Page to discover a really great talent. She is from Denmark and has what I think is a quite unique style. Yes there are many female singer songwriters out there but her choice of melodies I think makes her stand out from the crowd. Her new album Count to Ten is really very good. The previous album 'In the Red' is a firm favourite on my iPod and this is as good if not better. Stand out tracks are You know Better and On the Run to name but a few. This is an 8/10 album easily. Emotive and relaxing with well crafted lyrics and interesting melodies.My favourite song from In the Red is Warm Sand and here it is live, enjoy:

Utah's winter resorts are open for business (or will be very soon)!
2007-11-30 00:45:00 Wax those skis and snowboards because Utah's best time of year is officially here. I know, you've been waiting with bated breath for the snow to arrive, and after Thanksgiving passed without you on the slopes, you can now move forward. As of today, Brighton, The Canyons, Park City, Snowbasin, Solitude, and Wolf Mountain are open, though only with selected runs at this point. A few resorts have made some nice upgrades from last season. Brighton put in a high speed quad to replace the old Milly and Evergreen lifts. Deer Valley has invested $9 million towards various upgrades. Snowbird has improved snowmaking, and together with their high speed quad on Mineral Basin, their season should be a great one as well. I think every resort will have at least a little something new to offer its guest this season. As far as the conditions, Alta is topping the snow depth list as of today, with 27 inches at its base and 10 of that in the last 48 hours. Snowbird, Brighton and Sollitude are ...

The Crusher goes to Brighton
2007-10-05 17:13:00 Our first journey:So, the mobile office isn't done yet, but since we have all the major components for powering everything, we figured we'd take it out for a little mini-trip. Destination: Brighton, Utah We loaded up some make-shift desks, power strips, laptops, lawn chairs, snacks and of course, a bottle of wine to celebrate our first trip. We headed up the canyon where we picked up a hitchhiker. He was a schizophrenic guy named Tom. We gave him a lift up to his cabin. We got up to Brighton. Luckily, the resort has wireless internet so we parked right up by the lodge. At this point we realized that the metal cage we were in very effectively blocked out all wireless internet access. We rearranged the desk situation so we were closer to the window. Success. We set up shop and went to work. I've found I'm much more productive when I'm working from exciting places. We opened the back doors so we had a perfect view of the mountains. It was a little chilly, but we brought hoo...

London to Brighton - Dir: Paul Andrew Williams
2007-08-29 12:34:00 Very disturbing in places but captivating throughout. The film opens with a shocking scene of a battered woman and 12 year old child running away from something as yet unknown. Slowly but painfully we get to see the shocking truth of their story. Performances from the two female leads Georgia Groome and Lorraine Stanley are very good. The direction by Paul Andrew Williams is quite taut and purposefully bleak. A gangster element to the film is slightly overplayed but never detracts from the main performances. It's not an easy watch but is definitely a JM RECOMMENDS.

Courting the casual £: Brain Training 2 demo pod in Brighton

At least is wasn't being staffed by Chris Tarrant.
Develop in Brighton: The Making of LocoRoco + "New LocoRoco" shown
2007-07-26 18:29:00 Tsutomu Kouno (lead designer, Sony Computer Entertainment Japan) gave the briefest but most likable presentation of this year's conference. And was ended by showing a minute of the new LocoRoco - no video or photography was allowed for that bit though. Tsutomu started his career at Sony as a level designer for The Legend of Dragoon and then moved on to Ico, "I designed places I wanted to visit." he said. Interestingly, he too wasn't quite sure how to pronounce Ico, but settled with 'Eeco' rather than 'Eye-co'. He showed a scribbled PDA doodle of what would later become LocoRoco, and talked through his design choices that would would preempt Nintendo's Touch Generation ethos by many months. "[there are] too many complex games so I wanted to make a simple game." The experience of playing LocoRoco was summed up perfectly in one Japlish PowerPoint bullet: "Jelly-like feeling created by physical calculation!" The visual design of LocoRoco is its calling card, and thi...
Develop in Brighton: The Rapidly Maturing Genre of Online Gaming
2007-07-25 18:08:00 Richard Garriott (NCsoft), son of a NASA astronaut, has been creating games since the mid 70s. A distribution deal in 1979 for his first game saw him earn $5 per copy sold. The game, Akalabath, soon sold 30,000 units, and cemented his career in gaming. As he now prepares his new game, Tabula Rasa for release, his lecture at Develop made it clear just how risky MMORPG development is, but also showed that if you get it right, "you're set for life." Garriott discussed how the continuous technological advancements of early home computers impacted on game design, and how disruptive hardware upheavals can cause game design to "periodically reset to [a] basic gameplay dynamic." Offline gaming, according to Garriott took twenty years to develop, and with the online gaming industry approaching just half that, he was critical of current design choices, "Basic game design has not changed in the last ten years." Players "obsess about damage over time"...
Develop in Brighton: Second Life: The Challenges & Opportunities of Use
2007-07-25 14:10:00 Second Life is four years old, has eight million residents and hosts six million $USD of peer-to-peer transactions every month. And the fact that 60% of its users contribute content to the Second Life world makes it quite unique (only 1% of Wikipedia users and 5% of eBay users actually generate any kind of content). Dr Jim Purbrick (Linden Lab) began by clarifying that "I'm aware that Second Life isn't a game." Despite that, users invest over 400,000 hours into the world of Second Life and into a user-edited virtual environment that now is currently 6.5 times the size of Manhattan. The theme of Develop so far has been the potential pitfalls and benefits of user-controlled/generated content and Dr Purbrick described the "infinite shelf space" that online, retail-focused worlds can offer when populated by essentially unlimited user generated content (UGC). The problem with opening up the online space to unpredictable creative forces is that Sturgeon's Law inevitably kicks i...

Brighton Beach, England
2007-07-04 19:14:00 Brighton's Black Rock Beach was declared an official nudist beach in 1980. It is situated between the Peter Pan's Playground and Black Rock stations of the Volks Electric Railway, which runs along... A nude beach is a beach where the users generally wear no clothing. If clothing is optional then, to emphasize that, also the terms clothing-optional beach and free beach are used. It is one of the most common and traditional forms of public nudity. A nude beach should not be confused with a topfree beach or topless beach, where upper body clothing is not required for women or men, although a swimming costume covering the genitals is required for both men and women.

Inquinamento ambientale, nudi in bici da Madrid a Brighton, Cronaca & Attua
2007-06-09 15:10:00 Autore: Rinaldo Sidoli Oggetto: Inquinamento ambientale, nudi in bici da Madrid a Brighton Inviato: Dom Giu 10, 2007 12:10 am (GMT 11) Singolare iniziativa che prende in considerazione il tema della salvaguardia dell'ambiente Sono ciclisti o meglio amanti del naturismo o voyeurismo visto che sono scesi nelle strade con le loro biciclette ma non per per una classica passeggiata nelle piste ciclabili o nei sentieri di montagna; loro vogliono protestare in bici nudi da Madrid a Brighton. Sono amanti dell'ambiente certamente ma la scelta indecorosa di girare nudi per le strade non credo che sia una buona iniziativa per sensibilizzare le persone al riscaldamento globale. L'iniziativa ha riscosso un grande successo visto il gran numero dei partecipanti. C'erano uomini di mezza età e giovani ragazze. Più di una manifestazione sembrava una parata di carnevale resa allegra dai corpi colorati con scritte e decorati con qualche indumento spiritoso.

Emanuel Kaja in Brighton
2007-04-28 11:04:00 Fr Ray Blake, of St Mary Magdalen, Brighton is allowing the installation of a work of modern religious art during the month of May.It is a work by Emanuel Kaja.Father Blake explains the work as follows:"The stones symbolise separate human beings. Each of them is marked with a different name to represent Christ sacrifice for all. They also represent human sin that brought Christ to the Cross. Each stone is wrapped with wire which represents toil and sorrow that make us fall repeatedly. Having died Christ turns our hearts of stone into something alive, into his body."I hope it is a success and the parishoners like the temporary installation. Hopefully, the experiment will be a success and the first of a series.Church encouragement of contemporary modern artists who wish to create religious art of quality should be applauded.

2007-04-08 23:03:00 Brighton Pavillion bullt by John Nash for George IV when Prince Regent.He became Prince Regent in 1811 when his father was thought to be mad, and was crowned in 1820. He died in 1830 leaving a rich art collection and an architectural legacy including Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle and the Royal Pavilion. The Royal Pavilion grew over 35 years from a simple farmhouse to a spectacular palace. In 1787 Henry Holland extended the original farmhouse into a neo-classical building know as the 'Marine Pavilion'.From 1815-1823 John Nash used new technology to transform the Pavilion into the Indian style building that exists today. He enlarged the building and added the domes and minarets that characterise his design by superimposing a cast iron framework over Holland's Marine Pavilion.
