[39] Doors Open 2009 at H.M.C.S. York with Keri


Keri (of www.TheCanadianExplorer.com) and I ventured to the H.M.C.S. York for Doors Open 2009. She refused to tell me what we were doing prior to sitting in her studio/Jetta, preferring instead to keep her love of all things navy/military as a surprise. The explorer knows how to reload a Navy-issue handgun, which is kinda cool and kinda freaky at the same time.

Also! Here’s Keri’s video below. NOTE! She refused to watch the DT video until she finished hers, so any overlap is both a coincidence, and likely, considering we filmed the same stuff! Kinda meta…

[38] T.O. Jam 2009


T.O. Jam hit Toronto on May 1st and kept going for 72 hours straight. The event is designed as sort of a high-speed NaNoWriMo for game developers, where participants take 3 days to spit out a game, both in teams and solo. Ryan was on hand to see what was going on and to get some advice from both veterans and rookies. Photos can be had here too and check out Brendan Lynch’s team portraits here.
