We keep pushing ourselves to do something truly special. A little piece in collaboration with epic on our real-time facial animation. It was a pleasure to do the sound of this. I kept it simple to focus on what's important :) Well done to everyone involved :) It's mad the tech!

"Create a beat in 1 minute, just pick a style and hit generate" There is lot of tools now to streamline the creation process to the point that it removes a lot of the craft part. How do you feel about it? Cause I personally find that part so enjoyable and also a bit therapeutic.

Finally, after months of practice, this is starting to sound! I love this piece, but is super hard to play, at least for me. So much character, and passion. It's a shame I discover Scriabin so late. This is just an excerpt ,and if anyone is interested: it's the Etude Op. 8 No. 12

I had a look at all the new features, and improvements on Unreal engine 5.1 specifically on audio, and there are some really cool things coming to unreal. Looking forward to trying them out :)

This is my therapy. It keeps my brain busy and really happy. Especially when clearing those jumps for the first time. There is a lot of risk involved, but the feeling in the air is amazing :)

One of the rides in Scotland was really hard. Hiking hte bike through big rocks for kilometers with a strong wind. I was editing the video and felt this was a good image of some days in game development. Really tough!.

I had a chat about things with our studio head Dom Matthews. Some about Ninja, some personal, some about sound. Just an informal and relaxed chat!

5 years ago we released Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. For me was such a journey. It changed me and once more made me be amazed at how much talent there is in videogame development. Also opened my eyes and ears to new ways of approaching the journey of the mind. So grateful!

Today all the effort start to come together. And I'm clearing consistently and more importantly, feeling safe, tabletops of a decent size. Still there is a long way ahead. But I love it. Those seconds in the air create fireworks in my brain.

It's being quite a Journey learning MTB. Injuries, fear, but also the joy and the adrenaline. This is a medium tabletop. 2 months ago I will think this was impossible. Continue in the next tweet.

Spent some more days in Scotland. This time doing Mtb. One of the stops was Glentress. Absolutely stunning. This was one of the blue trails. I liked a lot that "highway" sign :D I guess was related to the speed!. Glentress is insane. the best trail for me was "Spooky woods"

Went to Peak District today to do some MTB, big effort as the climbs are insane, descents were super fun! youtu.be/YKXXScwWoYQ Such a great place to do Cycling of any type. This descent is called Devil Elbow. Start flowy and then becomes very technical!

As slowly I keep progressing and doing a bit more challenging stuff, decided to protect myself a bit more. Looking forward to try it on the trails!. Please even if you commute and just cycle chill, please wear a helmet.

If you imagine this over months. Is what learning a 🎹 is. Starts at something terrible and slowly gets there. I feel patience is one of the biggest skills at learning an instrument. The start of the process for any given piece is so far away from the final result!

We followed a random path near Invergarry and arrived to this incredible forest. The moss covering everything was surreal. Every day this land has a new surprise #Scotland
