GDC! Pictures! Adventure!

GDC was off the hook. Spent a lot of time showing my portfolio around. Blizzard said my stuff still needs work. But riot games might contact me. Stopped by the telltale booth as well. I have pretty good idea on how to improve my portfolio from this point forward. Totally worth going. If I save up some more money, I might consider getting a better pass next time. I felt left out of the conferences.

So tiring. but also rewarding. Below are some pictures.

Here's the tram after arriving at SFO airport place.

Crazy cage thingie. You walked around inside, and there's a vr helmet. The guy lost balance inside and almost fell down. What a dumb idea:

    I seriously want an idea like this to work at some stage, but in a matrix kind of way so I can shuffle off this mortal body and just dump my brain into a bucket of nutrient rich goo and electrodes.

    Man, I wanted to go. It's a quick walk from where I'm staying, but I just couldn't justify the expense. Shame I didn't find out you were here until the other day, Prox. We could've hung out.

    There was something important here. It's gone now.

    What made you think this warranted a thread in the AC?
