Sup, Holmes?is back after a week hiatus, and we’ve got a handsome man who made a videogame about “frindship and jumping and floating and anti-gravity”. Sounds pretty neat, right? The game is calledThomas Was Alone, and handsome man’s name is Mike Bithell. We’re going to find out on the show today ifhe’spretty neat, or if he just makes videogames that are pretty neat. Either way, we can’t lose.
I’m going to talk to him about pros and cons of abstraction, the differences (or lack of differences) between art that attempts to depict the external world and art that works to display the artist’s the internal world, hamburgers, and a whole lot more! The show starts at 1pm PST/4pm EST, so watch us talk and ask us questions!
