Weekly Update 5.25.21: NMMC Live, New Site, Life Stuff, etc.

Hi, folks! Sorry for the lack of channel content as of late. I sort of got on a tear with the web design/development stuff.  It's been in the works for a while in terms of the general design, but these past couple weeks, my life has been HTML, CSS and JS. I've been doing everything from scratch. No templates or anything like that. But when inspiration strikes, I've learned that you just have to go with it. I think it's proving fruitful and I hope you'll like what I come up with. Right no...

more website stuff!

Just thought I would share some more stuff I've been working on for the website. Here's the video page.

website homepage

Hey, folks! I've been brushing up on the basics of web development over the past few weeks, and I just worked up a version of the homepage for a NMMC website. Here's a screenshot. Feedback is totally welcome at this point. Nothing is set in stone. 

There are a few more features I want to add, but this should give you a pretty good idea of the general layout. Let me know what you think!

Happiness with Epoch Philosophy | Nightmare Tonight

Here's a rough cut of the latest episode of Nightmare Tonight. In this installment, I'm joined by fellow youtuber Ian, who has a channel called Epoch Philosophy. Our discussion was prompted by a recent video essay he made on the topic of happiness:

Weekly Update 4.27.21

Hey, folks!  Not much new to report this week. I should have a new ep of Nightmare Tonight uploaded for patrons relatively soon. In my opinion, it's one of the best episodes yet.

Still in the writing/research phase of the next video. Frankly, I'm hitting a bit of a wall but I'll power through it. I always do. That's all for now. Thank you for your support!

Weekly Update 4.20.21

Happy 4/20 for those of you who partake. I myself have been known to dabble.  I am in the writing/research stage for the next video. I'm thinking it will be 15-20 minutes unless I get carried away, which has been known to happen. The topic itself is something I have covered before, but it was quite some time ago, 2017 to be precise. Feels like a lifetime ago. I'm going to have a completely new angle this time around. More details to come. 

In other news, I have an interview sc...

Weekly Update 4.13.21

Hi all. How goes it? I've somewhat narrowed down the topic for my next video. I'm still trying to decide between two ideas. I'll keep you posted on that. Should have something a bit more definitive next week.

I'm also toying with the idea of making a website for Nightmare Masterclass to house all of the various links associated with the channel. Nothing too fancy. I'm dabbling with web dev stuff, so I might take a shot at it myself. Wish me luck.

That's all for now. Thank you for ...

You Will Hear Screaming: An Analysis of Gemini Home Entertainment

Hey, folks. I finished this one a bit earlier than anticipated. But since it's taken me quite some time, I just figured I would make this one public immediately. 

In this installment, I will be taking a look at a strange web series known as Gemini Home Entertainment by an artist named Remy Abode.

Weekly Update 3.23.21

Good evening. Well, the production process is well underway for my Gemini Home Entertainment analysis. I've recorded everything, and now it's time to edit. It's looking like the video will be complete within the next couple of weeks, maybe even by the end of March if I'm being optimistic. As far as the runtime goes, it's looking like it will be about 35 minutes. I thought it might be closer to 45, but I cut some stuff out that I felt was a bit circuitous. However, if you like this upcoming vi...

Weekly Update 3.16.2021

Hey folks! Last week was quite busy for me.

In case you missed it, I had a long discussion with C. Derick Varn about folk horror, Adam Curtis, and a bunch of other stuff. You might know him from his various projects with Zero Books. Check it out:

Weekly Update 3.9.21

Hey, folks. Just wanted to give a quick update. As far as the next edited video goes, I'm still in the writing phase. It's coming along! I am really enjoying the process this time around, and I think that might have a little something to do with the work I'm covering. You'll see what I'm talking about in due time. I'd say I have about 3,000 words written at this point, and I'm thinking the total script will be about double that. We'll see how things shake out.

Weekly Update 3.2.21

Hey, folks! I've been kind of slammed at my day job the past week, so things haven't been moving as much as I would've liked with the script for the next video. But I'm hoping this week will be a little less hectic. I've got about 2k words thus far, and I'm thinking it will be on the longer side.

Doom Mods with Liz Ryerson | Nightmare Tonight

Hey, folks! Got a new ep of Nightmare Tonight for ya. In this episode, I'm interviewing Liz Ryerson about her fascination with Doom mods. Liz was featured in Preserving Worlds, so be sure to check out her episode. 

You might recall Liz interviewed me about Petscop way back in 2020. Feels like a long time ago!

Hey, folks! Hope you are doing well on this fine evening. Just wanted to give you a quick update. I'm in the writing phase of the production for my next video. It's shaping up to be a doozy if I do say so myself. It may end up on the longer side; it really just depends on where the analysis takes me at this point.

NEW VID: Cyberpunk 2077 is an Abomination

In this installment, I will be offering a critique of the game Cyberpunk 2077. As I'm sure you know by this point, this much anticipated game had a notoriously botched release. But there are much deeper problems with Cyberpunk than the shoddy state of the game upon its release.
