Three Years of Resident Evil

When I moved here December 8, 2011, I had only one intention; to peel away the dead flesh and let someone I'd rather know emerge.

Dead Man’s Locker

What happens to the machine when the human abandons it? Behold, the personal computer. A Packard Bell desktop, to be precise, with all the whiz-bangs the end of the 20th century allotted: 100 megahertz Intel processor, 1 gigabyte SCSI drive, a floppy and a CD drive, and, the creme-de-la-creme, a 28.8 bits per second dial … Continue reading Dead Man’s Locker
