A Tale of Agony "Once lovers, forged by space and time, a unity of eternity meant to last forever. However, the perfect creation cannot subject itself to its flaws, therefore honesty walks alone. Shadows of the past are lurking around every corner; the deceit yet unspoken prowl between the lines. Our hopes and dreams generates the … Continue reading A Tale of Agony

Old song lyrics
While checking some (very) old folders and files on my computer I came across these song lyrics I wrote around 7-8 years ago. Considering the quality of most modern-hit lyrics I think this would be considered a literary masterpiece in the Top 10 @ 10 on MTV. Warning: Excessive cursing. Fuck, Fucking School! … Continue reading Old song lyrics
Amazing mind-read technology!
Just came across this clip on Youtube and felt I had to share it. From the description of the video: The left clip is a segment of the movie that the subject viewed while in the magnet. The right clip shows the reconstruction of this movie from brain activity measured using fMRI. The reconstruction was obtained using … Continue reading Amazing mind-read technology!
My Workspace!
After reading this post on the blog Chasing Moonlight I decided to post some (two) pictures of my workspace! And the heart of it all! My computer. It's brand new (and so is the screen and mouse). Was sooo close to getting an iMac but decided on building my own machine instead. Next computer will, without … Continue reading My Workspace!
Project 2 update!
I wanted to publish a post about Mass Effect 2 today but since that would make five non-literature posts in a row I decided to give you a brief update instead. The work on Project 2, my debut novel, is going really well. Though I am afraid I will go beyond the 400 page limited … Continue reading Project 2 update!
Re-watching Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
It had been ten years since I saw this movie last time. It was at the Cinema in Ystad, Sweden, 2001. Like everyone else I was expecting a great movie closely related to the Final fantasy franchise. The two projects had the same father and shared the same name. Of course the movie was greatly … Continue reading Re-watching Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
Deus Ex: Human Revolution – Last thoughts
Overall I loved the game. It has been a long time since I felt any medium (literary, cinematic, or interactive) made me think about our society, in what direction it is heading, and about our future, like Deus Ex: Human Revolution did. If you have not yet played the game I think you owe it to … Continue reading Deus Ex: Human Revolution – Last thoughts
Roots of Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Transhumanism
Before I dwell further into the topic of Transhumanism I would like you to watch two clips. The first one is an advert for the fictional human augmentation company, found in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, called "Sarif Industries." The second clip is a propaganda film by the fictional anti-augmentation group, also found in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, … Continue reading Roots of Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Transhumanism
Over 75% complete!
It is done. Over 75% of my novel completed if everything goes as planned. For a few days I was afraid that I would go way beyond the 400 page limit I set myself but now it seems as if everything is back on track. Not sure what more to tell you. Everything is coming … Continue reading Over 75% complete!
A heart’s longing
This poem... Well I actually forgot I ever wrote it. So I can't tell you much about it I'm afraid. (To be honest, I have a lot of stuff like this lying around, that I cannot recall ever writing. Most are outright bad, some are too surreal and abstract, and other too personal to publish. … Continue reading A heart’s longing
