Who in the blazes?
Killerpoke is the independent blog of Nick Craske, creative director, living and working in London. Killerpoke is a method of inducing irreversible hardware damage on a machine.

I'm even more curious now, and increasingly fascinated with technology and narrative to communicate and entertain in the digital world. Work is play.

The Spinning Top, Sorrow’s Army release – Graham chats
Consisting of pieces that function like supersize Legos, these sets make it easy to construct a room divider, home office, or sensory-deprivation pod on a lazy Sunday afternoon. I have an urge to construct a giant bubble-space; sit inside with latte and a good book…

Strangelove Slide Rule: Nuclear Bomb Effects Computer
Back in the 1960s, there was no better way for a larval engineer or scientist to stand out from those pursuing more mushy majors than swaggering around with a fancy slide rule in a spiffy leather holster dangling from their belt. |

Microsoft’s Future Vision film intrigues and teases
Microsoft’s 2019 Future Vision Montage: Envisioning the Future. This is an enticing show-reel; some beautifully visualised themes and ideas. If only Microsoft could realise some of these ideas. Will they ever? Well, Microsoft Surface is a fully realised interactive experience… |
