Today, I’m learning how to generate MIDI files with Perl. So far, this has been a fairly straight forward process. This is most likely due to the fact that MIDI hasn’t really changed since 1983.

Here is the guide I’m following.

I’m sort of a nut for anything zombie related.  Which is weird since I’m not really into violent/horror films.  However, I play a lot of video games.  Which, I guess, are loaded with the ultra violence.  

One of favorite franchises is Capcom’s Resident Evil series.  In particular, I love the Resident Evil 1 remake and Resident Evil 4.

The next title in the series, Umbrella Chronicles, mixes things up a bit, as it is going to be an on-rails shooter that utilizes the wiimote for placing the undead into your cross hairs.  More shooting, less adventure.  There is plenty of message board outcry over this new format.  However, I couldn’t be more pleased for a couple of reasons.  One, it’s nice to see older franchises taken into new territory.  Two,  Resident Evil 5 is in the works, so we’ll still be getting a true sequel.

If you’re interested, you should read IGN.com’s initial hands-on impressions of Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles.

I picked this shirt up from my local Urban Outfitters recently. The choice of using the Memorymoog as the graphic is especially fitting.
