The games of old...



This restaurant is somewhere I stopped by when on a work trip to Taiwan..

Simple food, basic settings (as you can see from the table) but shelves full of memorabilia and images from the past.

Visuals we have long forgotten, writing that is so very faded but not lost...

Not the vacuumed packed seal of the present, but the earthy rusty smell of the past.

The things we used to have were so simple, so common.

No millions of colours or thousands of pixels.

Nor 3D worlds or virtual images.

Just the infinite resolution of our imaginations, and the endless extents of our minds..

When did we decide we needed help to have fun?
