And so it begins

Frankly, I didn't think I'd be a porn producer. Sure, it was always on the cards, as an extremely remote and unlikely possibility, my skills and experiences considered. But I thought these skills would prove to be valuable elsewhere first. Commerce or Education or even Government would surely continue to provide me with an income in exchange for these skills in combination with my time. They've done so for decades.

It appears however that this is no longer the case. I'll speculate more about the possible reasons later. For now suffice it to say that even while I'm extremely proficient and experienced in my field that field doesn't yield a harvest in or from the professional venues mentioned above any more. And I've got to pay the rent.

So here I find myself, producing porn.

I do the Internet. HTML, CSS, Javascript, Jquery. Or Canvas, Apache, PHP, MySQL. Words and acronyms that baffle the average human being and even if they recognize them, know what they mean or represent, to actually have a grip, make it work is not like walking while chewing gum. But I've been there, designed the T-shirt.

Yet here I find myself, producing porn.

I do CGI. I do animation and image manipulation. I wipe my arse with Photoshop and use The GIMP. I do 3D modeling, subdivision means nothing to me even while the Blender UI would stun the pilot of the space shuttle and Wings3D is like that space shuttle with just one incredibly intricated use of a single joystick. I even do Virtual Worlds and - Reality.

But I find myself, producing porn.

Now, I don't have a principal, moral, ethical objection against producing porn. Or consuming it. Or it existing. I don't consider producing porn to be a bad thing in essence. Producing porn is, from my perspective, the end game market. In life you learn, you work, you deal with the world and in the end, when those requirements are dealt with, you lean back and enjoy intimacy or porn. The two aren't mutually exclusive, by the way.

In any case, I thought I could contribute to commerce, education etc, the things in life that preceed that last leisure, with my skills and time, and generate revenue to pay the rent in exchange. Considering the reality that this is not true I find myself producing porn.

I find myself producing on-line interactive erotic games, combining high end CGI and animation with current internet standards. I am aiming for a consenting mature audience that is interested in erotica beyond high speed gonzo.

I'll use this blog to post about this adventure but I will cover more than just the games I'm producing. I'll drop problems I encountered while writing the javascrpt or jquery and how I solved them. I'll moan about the GIMP and work-arounds. I'll contemplate the state of the world or society I find myself in. In short, a diary.

But since I believe time is the most precious of all resources and should never be wasted I hope to inform as well as entertain. So you, dear reader, didn't think you've been wasting yours.

I know I haven't. Even while I was and am producing porn.
