If you've played games against me in the last few months, you will have noticed my frequent weekend vacations.   I have been involved in a film shoot in Bridgeport, CT; at the abandoned Savoy Hotel.  It is an adaptation of a macabre short story: "The Music of Erich Zann", by H.P. Lovecraft.

  We had very (very) little money to work with, but a talented and dedicated crew.  The film is now completed, and it has already recieved some good reviews and attention.  I would love you all to watch and tell me what you think! 

  The film can be viewed at: http://vimeo.com/6806455.

  My part in the film is Howard Philipps, a young student of metaphysics who pursues a friendship with the strange old man that lives in the apartment above.  It runs about 35 mins, and there is indeed a very hidden chess reference.  I will be shocked if anybody catches it.
