After a week of [sorta] hard work, I've finally completed MY DESK IS 8-BIT, the first piece of animation I've actually put online that wasn't for a client.

As the description on the project page says, the idea for the piece came to me when I tried envisioning a full-fledged video game in the form of stop motion animation, perhaps made with colored blocks like Legos or something. In the process of answering that question, I created a video game from scratch, wrote a good minute or two worth of retro-style chiptune music, designed a handful of sufficiently bleepy-bloopy sound effects and then dumped it all into a blender.
Whether the results are of any worth isn't for me to say, but it's pretty much exactly what I envisioned when the idea first hit me. I'm toying with some plans to continue exploring this technique on a larger scale, but we'll see how that pans out. I have plenty of print work to keep me occupied for a while.
