I’ve been listening to Radiolab a whole lot at work lately. I first heard some of their stuff on NPR on the way back from Austin – the Parasite episode – promptly forgot about them for a few months, and then was coincidentially reminded about it via a tweet from Adam Atomic. So I’ve been toiling away the hours at work plugged into their podcast, which has been very, very interesting and entertaining to say the least. But one of the segments that I heard seems to have sparked a thought that I keep coming back to again, and again, and again… and I’m wondering if the best way to help exorcise this thought is to write it down (or type it up, or whatever :P)
So the piece that has stuck to me – and it’s not even from one of their longer segments, it’s just something someone said – has to do with the possibility of ‘downloading’ someone’s brain into a computer, thereby giving someone virtual immortality. I think I went way deeper in this post than ever before… Almost feel like I’m touching on the edges of that-which-is-not-meant-to-be-known, and trying to look at it too closely will send me spiraling into some Lovecraftian madness… but it’s all good :)

I thought it would be interesting to break down some items of this game that I like, and those I don’t like. Since this is *meant* to be a Blog about Worldcrafting and Game Design, it might be useful. At the very least, it’ll be fun, and give me an excuse to show off some of my creations :)
