🎮❤️Powerhouse Museum Alt Games@ Parramatta Sq How(Not)To Get Hit By A Self Driving Car Sat 12 Apr 25

Dulcineasdiarycontinued - this is the first in the series of videos I am uploading. Today I pushed aside my postcode snobbery again and took the skow train for the first time in months only because the bus would not make it in time to transfer onto the next Metro at Crows Nest. Take the slow train and I had more options connecting with transfers Today I made it to have a very quick look at the Powerhouse weekend event at Parramatta Square and the basement levels of Phive. I did not have enough time to play test any games or talk to any of the game creators. Would have loved to have done so but there was a very long queue. The hall was packed I could see from above - it was just as packed as SXSW 2024 games expo at UTS in the Great Hall with another separate room for hands on game play testing. My favourite interactive game installation had to be the AI How (Not) To Be Hit By A Self Driving Car game . If I didn't have my backpack and had more time I would have had a go. Some very creative kids and teens coming up with strategies on how to dodge being detected by the virtual AI autonomous car . I rate the event 8/10. I will upload a few videos on what I did mange to see at the Alt Games event. The second event I rushed to attend was out at Clyde about a 20 minute walk from Clyde Station in the stinking heat. I had booked the Sydney Metro West Clyde Stabling & Maintenance Facility Community Open Day tour for 1.30 pm the very last group ( group 10) for the day but got there earlier in time to join the 1 pm group. If I had researched it a little more, wasn't so sick and not a little hot and tired as well as not so much in a hurry to make it there in time today I think I might have enjoyed the tour as little more. It was ok but not my favourite Metro Community Open Day. It took some long to get out there just as well it was just 3 normal train stops from Parramatta ( no metro yet out to Parramatta not until maybe 2030 something). Rating 8/10, lots of walking around outside in the heat on uneven surfaces. Not what I was expecting at a Community Open Day but the staff were really nice, knowledgeable and there was lots of panels around with information about the construction site. There were a series of excavators, dump trucks that did not actually dump but spat or more like farted out whatever was in their load from the back a compactor and roller . The Cat was my favourite . There was sunscreen upon checking in, wristband given and guides to an area where you could see mountains of soil sand stone etc dug up from below and replaced to fill in and raise the facility as the area around the stabling & maintenance facility around Clyde can be subject to flooding . In parts there were concrete platforms slabs covered over the size of multiple football stadiums! The event location was so hidden there was a staff member station near the entrance to the event so people knew where to go. At the site there was free bottles of water because it was so hot, a dress up in a hives vest & hard hat selfie spot ( no one in the 1 pm group took this activity up) colouring in sheets and coloured pencil packs, the cardboard make them up yourself Metro train models, information brochures of the new stations being constructed and free ice cream by Messina Gelato from a stall set up. Chocolate was sold out but all the other flavours were still available.I do wonder how many people actually showed up as there was 30 in the first group and apparently after that not more then 10 people per group. The 1 pm group I joined because I was early was less then 10 and the final group I originally booked for group 10 at 1.30 pm only had maybe 4 people on it. A long walk back to the station ( Google led me to where a set of traffic lights were suppose to be to cross but they were not therr so I had to walk all the way back towards the station to cross at tgat set of lights - at least it didn't lead me to an incomplete pedestrian overpass or level crossing) Back on the train which happened to arrive just in time for me to board direct all the way back to Chatswood. At Chatswood it was a quick grocery shop at the green grocer then Aldi followed by a snack at the Chatswood Mall Markets open until late on Saturdays now and not just Thursdays and Fridays. A snack of a lamb and onion Samsa ( it is like a mini sausage roll) before waiting and going home on the bus.
