Without intending to sound pretentious (although instantly resigning this piece to that fate), Proteus, created by Ed Key and David Kanaga, is not so much a game as it is a pleasant experience.

photo by Matthew Craig I know it's been quite a while, but I've taken a little break for my mental well-being. I'll be enjoying the remaining days of summer in Seattle at the Bumbershoot Festival. So expect amazing photos, interviews and coverage. I'll be kicking things into gear upon my return. Thanks for reading! 1. David Kanaga - "The Way I Feel" (mp3) I couldn't believe my ears when I heard even more great electro out of Walla Walla, Washington. Whitman College, of all places, has spawned not only [...]
