#PortfolioDay already? Don't mind if I do:
These models are all physical props that I built, painted and photographed myself. Don't let anyone tell you motion-control shots are a lost art, yet.

A model of the TIE Phantom from the Star Wars expanded universe

A model of the J-109 Atlas, an original starship designed by me.

A model of the Cantwell-class Arrestor Cruiser from Star Wars: Andor, along with a tiny Corellian-style transport for scale

A model of the Taiidan Attack Bomber from the Homeworld series of games, hanging from a docking clamp.

Well it doesn't snow anymore and all the bugs are extinct but on the other hand people who think spreadsheets are alive get to pretend their replika girlfriend is going to write the Singularity Code if we just feed her a few trillion more gallons of the ocean

In my personal life I have moved away from thinking of people as stupid. Instead I just think of people as "incurious," where the Doing of learning has become something they are too tired, scared, or proud to pursue. Curiosity is, I think, the greatest human virtue, the Doing of learning.

to me, Doing is a knife that must be continually honed, however small the grind wheel available to you is, because to me it's not about how sharp the knife actually is it's about the process of honing itself. if you are Doing then you are living. there are always opportunities to Do if you seek them

Happy Columbo’s Day

Screenshot from Columbo. He his talking to his dog, which is sitting is the drivers seat of a car. “Okay, I’m gonna put you in charge. You take care of the car. You’re a responsible dog. When I get back, if the car’s okay, I’ll give you another cookie.”

we just need 500 more and everything counts, including reposts!!

❤️❤️

Berrak @berrak.bsky.social · 7d

friends, unfortunately I am in need of some help again to keep a roof over my head

we are moving out of this flat on the 17th (in 10 days) we got for the month, and nowhere to go with very little funds so far

I am trying to raise about 1500 Euros while I am interviewing and applying to grants

Pay Berrak Nil Boya using PayPal.Me

Go to paypal.me/berrakn and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.

Found a complete game design I wrote down when my son must have been around 1-2 years old. Don't think it needs any tweaks, feel free to use it

Small notebook open at the first page.
On the page is written:

"Poo game

- make him make the poo face"

butter while cooking, salt, and after cooking, more butter, passion fruit, muscovado sugar

The problem with computer jobs is that it's all in your head. You can't touch or eat the code you write, it's too abstract. You need to find something to make with your hands if you want to stay okay

Have you ever been lost in a video game level, wandering empty halls, until you know you're going the right way because you finally run into enemies? Because you don't know what to do without conflict? Well some people live their real lives that way

Worth reading this very measured yet equally strong and defiant statement from the folks at Trans Pride Brighton 👇🏼

Trans Pride Brighton @transpridebrighton.bsky.social · 4d

🧵 1/7 Last night, a trans-led direct action group, Bash Back, damaged windows at the Brighton Centre in response to it hosting the Filia Conference. To be clear: TPB had no involvement in this and doesn’t coordinate with Bash Back. Our organising centres community safety and collective empowerment.
