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
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

Everything is coming … Continue reading Over 75% complete!

This means I believe more than half of my novel has been completed. If I am honest - I didn't actually like my novel (project … Continue reading Over 50% completed!

The new magazine entitled HUMANITY+ came through my letterbox a few days ago. It is published as a form of metabooklet for Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Humanity+ is a magazine filled with essays, chronicles, and conspiracies about human augmentation, science, transhumanism, capitalism, and more. All of which relate to the main themes and central subjects … Continue reading Humanity+
The interview with me was published yesterday in Ystads Allehands. It is, unfortunately, in Swedish so you can't read it. Luckily I'll provide you with summarising bullet points. The headlines is: "His dreams become science fiction." My burning interest for writing took me to the University of Birmingham to get my BA in English with Creative … Continue reading My interview
