Why does everything always seem to get on top of you when Christmas is coming up? I have a fair amount of work to get done in the coming weeks before I leave Lincoln and head back to Reading to see my parents, and all I can get done is sitting and staring at 2 monitors, I just don’t seem to be able to get motivated at all.

That being said however, I have made it to chapter 8 of my iPhone development book so I’m making progress on that, and have been pretty much constantly messing in Xcode. I recently got a copy of Unity Pro, and Unity iPhone to see if that will make game development any easier, however I’m still going to work through my book first so I don’t confuse myself too much. Unity does look good after having a short play with it, but I have yet to get my iPhone actually hooked up to it.

Saying I’ve not been doing much work recently isn’t totally true as I’ve just finished my ‘Live Sound Production’ module at Uni unofficially as there are no more lectures, I completed my dissertation proposal and got that handed in, I’ve been working on a presentation for my ‘Audio Project’ which I will have to give in a week or so, and I’ve also been pretty busy writing my actual dissertation chapters. All in all I’ve been pretty busy, if very unmotivated.

I did give my studio a little bit of a clear up (my desk area really) as you can see in the image. I’ve given it more of a development feel about it for the time being as I’m not really doing much audio based work at the moment. I currently have 2 MacBook Pros with one running OS X 10.5 and one running OS X 10.6, the reason behind this is that one of them contains the licenses for Unity, and the other doesn’t, that’s it really…oh the other reason being my main one (under the monitor) is dying!

Well with so much stuff to do why am I posting this you may be asking, well, basically I’m attempting to escape the mindset of constant working, and trying to make my mind create again. Then I will start to do work again once I’m back in a creative mood….this could take a while however.
