Letters to a Faceless Audience: July 2008
http://missnishi.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 26, 2008. How often do they come up? How many shooting games have females thrown into the NPC (non-player character) population? Does it change the way you play if there are any? Most instances of female filler characters I can think of are civilians: random women walking down the street in the Grand Theft Auto. Series, women carrying pots on their heads in Assassin's Creed. Sometimes there are entire throngs of women without any men, as in Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Just some thing...

Letters to a Faceless Audience: November 2008
http://missnishi.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 20, 2008. Tools of the Trade. Okay, so I haven't blogged since September. I'm a bad person, I know. I would argue that my life is busy, but the whole point of blogging is often for me to share my ideas quickly with a handful of incredible but widely scattered people. If I have lost anyone's interest by taking so long to get back on the ball, I'm sorry! When will we get to the documentaries, dramas, and biographicals? When will there be games that feel like short films, or even poems?

Letters to a Faceless Audience: September 2008

Tuesday, September 23, 2008. Expansion Three: The Working World. Today's tidbit before the real deal is: I got my letter to my dad back in the mail today. This saddened me a bit, but the good news is that it was returned because it couldn't be forwarded to the right address, not because he did not read it and returned it himself. So, round two with a different address begins tomorrow. I hope it works out better. Should I be getting my feet wet out in "the real world"? Links to this post. Flying over and ...

Letters to a Faceless Audience: March 2009
http://missnishi.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 22, 2009. Possible Futures and My United Books of Academia. It's almost the end of March, and there's snow in the sky. I don't think I need to say anything else about that. Another thing that has me looking far ahead is The Next Fifty Years: Science in the First Half the Twenty-First Century. I'm also trying to whip through a book on why children need fantasy violence, Killing Monsters. Links to this post. Saturday, March 14, 2009. Links to this post. Sky-High Night, Low-Hanging Morning.

Letters to a Faceless Audience: The Happiness Project
http://missnishi.blogspot.com/2010/03/happiness-project.html
Thursday, March 4, 2010. So I've been reading The Happiness Project. By Gretchen Rubin, and I think it's made me realize that I've been working on my own happiness project for about a year now. Maybe not as methodical, but perhaps just as effective. Now I'm following the book and thinking about what my resolutions would be each month. What would this month be?

Letters to a Faceless Audience: Many Hands Make the Load Lighter
http://missnishi.blogspot.com/2010/03/many-hands-make-load-lighter.html
Wednesday, March 24, 2010. Many Hands Make the Load Lighter. Just after the crisis in Haiti, I bought a t-shirt from Threadless. To donate to the cause. The slogan of the shirt was "Men anpil chay pa lou," which translates to "Many hands make the load lighter." I didn't think much about the phrase at the time, aside from admiring the beauty of such an idea. That idea feels a wee bit more pertinent to me now. What about just one dollar? If you can't spare that few dollars, or even if you can, perhaps you ...

Letters to a Faceless Audience: Schoolwork, Internship, Apprenticeship, or Ownership
http://missnishi.blogspot.com/2010/03/schoolwork-internship-apprenticeship-or.html
Wednesday, March 3, 2010. Schoolwork, Internship, Apprenticeship, or Ownership. I've just been introduced to an interesting thought regarding my workplace that had never occurred to me before. For anyone reading that is not familiar with the Emergent Media Center's project structure, we hire students for pay to work on projects under the supervision of staff and faculty advisors.
