I am a fan of old and weird media, and being a massive digital packrat

This blank DVD supposedly lasts 1000 years. I wonder if we'll know what a DVD drive was then.


I had a strange way of naming old floppy disks. Here are some actual recent ones when I got into my "small files on floppies" kick.

I got this flash drive suitcase off Amazon.

And of course more strange floppy disk titles.

This was a set-up I had on the left side of my long desk in 2022

These were my 10-disc Armaray cases. They are also called Multi-DVD cases. They had all sorts of disc types in them though.

This was once the shelf I had that was 80% media storage.

Here are some Unikeep cases. They hold 12 discs and were the same type of case used for library audio books on cd.

This was the beginning of my binder collection.


These business cards were also 64GB USB drives. They were too slow and some crapped out pretty fast.


Here is a floppy disk case, with floppy disks, naturally.


This notepad was made of two floppy disks stitched together with paper inside.


These were my mini-cds and dvds. I have a lot more now that I use for music source files to stuff I make. They are my backups to larger DVDs and Blu-Ray archives in a nice looking CD book.

This is ultimately where ALL my discs ended up for a while. These were only $2 each on temu. I realized as my wife thought it was a weird eyesore that I was collecting far too many cd-roms and whatnot. So basically what wasn't modern or a true keepsake went in the trash. I still have all of the sources to all of my creations and music, and games that still play. 

My Project Warlock-related (mostly) shelves in my bedroom.

This was my cassette tape collection of mostly stuff I recorded long ago. I still have them in a box, just not in a wooden display rack.


Zip Disks, 100MB or 250MB sized. These were popular in the 2000's to mid 2000's I believe. I had them up until a year ago. In fact, I still have them somewhere just not the drive.

These are ALL of my media discs at the moment, in nice little booklets. They are divided into "music sources and archive" "old and new games and game-related" and "other"

This is my glorious box from hobby lobby with wood letters that say "Warlock Work." Inside this box is the entirety of the source files that went into the game Project Warlock's soundtrack. Also there are a ton of early test burns and cassettes for a Jeep that only played cassettes. They were all early drafts for listening to and critiquing, which is how I do it.

My advice: Even with any type of music creation, don't be done with it when you record it. Listen. Over and over and over. Never consider a first recording a final draft. There's always room for improvement and your creative ears are the best way to acknowledge this.


This is a shadowbox for the Nintendo Switch version of Project Warlock. It was put together by my own mom. It is AWESOME!

This is a photo from the early 90's of the id software team, autographed by John Romero himself.

This is our library a few years back. There was a record player with my small record collection and all my computer books and her various books as well

My official SAMS Publishing Doom Design books from 1994? I bought them when they came out and both came with a CD-Rom full of tools and levels.

My wife preordered me box 006 of the Project Warlock big box edition as a surprise gift!

Here is the back of the box, signed by Jakob Cislo and John Romero ;)

Right next to the Sigil 2 box.
