One of my obsession in teaching and practicing game design is the study of spaces. So sad to see that Marc Augé, who is central to some of my lectures, has passed away.

My next book is *The Internet Con: How to Seize the Means of Computation.* It's a recipe to disenshittify the web and bring back the old good internet. The book is from @VersoBoooks, but the #audiobook is from me - because Amazon refuses to sell it: kickstarter.com/projects/docto… 1/

I have started using Obsidian, and it's SO GOOD. So much better than Notion in organizing knowledge (Notion is better at other things, though). I think it's a great game design tool as well.

Not very happy with the trend of souls like combat in metroidvania games. I think it unnecessarily raises stress and takes away from the pleasure of exploration and finding hidden places. Both Metroid and Castlevania were great at keeping a bit of challenge without being brutal.
