Oh, hi there. My name's Zen.
I make stuff using pixels, Game Boys and ancient spirit magick. I like to write about videogames, art, airships, bleeps, bloops and other swell things. I think we're going to get along just fine.

Created in 2005 by Chris Burke (also known by his chipmusic alias Glomag), This Spartan Life is a talk show set inside an unpredictable (and generally explodey) game of Halo. TSL regularly hosts a variety of segments including guest interviews, political debates (with rocket launchers) and synchronized dance routines set to the hottest chiptune jams. Past guests have included Bungie lead composer Marty O’Donnell, Red Vs Blue creator Bernie Burns and former Sex Pistols manager Malcolm McLaren. A new season of the award-winning series is now on the horizon, and its creators need your help to make it a reality.
Of course, your generosity won’t go unrewarded: Your contributions to the project make you eligible for a number of neat prizes, including a chance at a virtual in-game date with Amber of the Solid Gold Elite Dancers, who may or may not interpret ‘date’ as ‘burning your face off with a plasma sword.’
Head over to TSL’s page on Kickstarter for more info, and if you’re unfamiliar with the series, check out the official website for past episodes, all available for free.
