To explain today’s game we need to go back to 1982 and a company from the London area, Rabbit Software, which I’ve written about before. To recap: they were a mail order company that spun off from a computer shop early in 1982, quite quickly filling their catalog with solicited content. They had some drama […]| Renga in Blue
I’ve finished the game; my previous post is needed for context.

A short tale of heads, memory, and virtual farms. I was hanging the laundry to dry outside on a sunny morning, and there it was: a headless field mouse resting on the lawn.

In fact, my husband found the mouse’s head elsewhere in the garden a few days later. What a grim end for the poor little thing. --- I finished read...| Design & other obsessions by Silvia Maggi
