Last monday I defended my thesis and succeeded! I got an 8.5 (out of 10) as the grade, with which I’m very happy. This finalizes my Game & Media Technology computer science master at the Utrecht University.

I’m working on a PyQt 4 application for my employer Chess. Of course I’m writing plenty of unit tests for it as well. Those tests have to be cleanly separated from each other, so every test that requires the entire application to be up and running should have its own instance.

Yesterday Ork and I went to a Strobist meeting in Breukelen, The Netherlands. We had a lot of fun, joining 18 photographers and 16 models, in an old abandoned industrial building.

Hey folks,
I’ve made my first stop-motion animation! And it’s also my first video on Flickr. Well, video - let’s just call it a concatenation of frames. I’ve enjoyed making it, I hope you enjoy watching.

I’ve been working on a video of our live performance in Winston Kingdom using Adobe AfterEffects. To show the title of a song at the start and end of the song, I used a script to automate the fading.

The Python FlickrAPI kit has just been released. The new features are:
Using auth_callback=False when authentication is actually required now ises a FlickrError exception. The implementation uses self.flickr_host so that subclasses can override e API URLs.
Holiday Special: Sausage What are you looking at? It’s a sausage. “Rookworst” (a type of smoked sausage), to be exact, probably well known to every Dutch reader. It was hand-made by my parents’ butcher and wrapped with some Christmas fluff, also by the butcher.

Jojo in the snow Well waddayano, even with all the global warming we can get a few days’ worth of real winter in The Netherlands. Clogged up public transportation, taking corners sideways with our car, and a beautiful white world.
