Infrasound and data centers and noise pollution. Interesting research presented and the experiment he did is also super interesting as well as collecting samples of infrasound outside of data centers.

Game dev has become incredibly hard and risky, as has working in games media. Our medium brings delight to millions but the benefits get funnelled to a few. We need to stick together.

I’ve been working on sth to bring back hope. More news soon. In meantime, follow these folks.

Oh sick
A well-known and frequently used website actually put their foot down in a meaningful way. This actually made my day better

Tourette syndrome activist John Davidson says Bafta told him ‘any swearing would be edited out of the broadcast’ Davidson said he ‘can’t begin to explain how upset and distraught I have been’ over slurs he shouted during the award ceremony

So the BBC promised Davidson and StudioCanal (who made I Swear) that any swearing tics would be edited out from broadcast, and instead they left them in despite a two hour delay, and even put a fucking microphone right in front of him to ensure they picked it up - he was sat at the back of room.

It’s okay to say no, even if you don’t have any gigs. It’s okay to have ‘nothing’, no gigs is better than being sick. Because that’s what exploitative contracts do to you. That is the invisible and sometimes, delayed cost of accepting bad contracts. They make you sick, mentally and financially. You might not realize it in the moment, but when it does it hit, it’ll be a quick and heavy hit. Being burnout and sick doesn’t just affect you, it affects those around you as well.

Im genuinely proud of this weeks newsletter. Yes it's about 'how to get gigs as a freelancer' but theres a vulnerability and transparency that was cathartic to write.

(A quick backstory if you’re not already aware: JC started the hashtag #WhatAGameDevLooksLike after security guards at GDC stopped her from picking up her speaker badge since she visually didn’t fit the profile of a stereotypical GDC speaker.)

Ramadan has started, and the World Central Kitchen has a program to distribute food aid to people in Gaza. Each kit for Ramadan contains nearly 30 pounds of halal—enough for up to 70 meals. If you have spare funds, please consider a donation of $60 to assist the people still struggling in Gaza.

Poster to fight against ai. Visualized is a cave painting inspired horse, with text that reads "art has always been accessible"

I hear a lot of people saying that ai makes art accessible.. well I personally think that's bullshit- so I made this to drive my point home.
