I've been working on game development for a while now, I'm in the process of building a race game. I'm currently running AI training using the Particle Swarm Optimization technique I read about at gamasutra. It's working.

Once my AI is trained, I have a bunch of polishing to do, then out for testing.

Studio wise, I've been getting together and playing with some old high school buddies and friends. It's a blast. I did a multi-track recording of the last jam as a test. After a mix, it came out sounding pretty good. We're going to rehearse a bit more and do another recording.

Skyjumper has 2 gigs coming up:

• Monday, December 4^th at The Drake
• Friday December 15^th at the Kathedral

The Kathedral gig is for The Nothing Else CD Release party. They've been working long and hard and now have Deep Within ready to go.

Skyjumper is playing The Drake on Monday October 9^th.

They go on at Midnight.

More info available at the Skyjumper Site.

I'm busy working on artwork for 2 upcoming albums, Skyjumper - 'Chute the Breeze and Nothing Else - Deep Within, both ready for pressing.

A baby grand piano has been acquired for the studio and several recordings have been made from it. Thanks to Pat Kelly for thinking of me when he had a piano he needed to park for a while.
