VideoSenki have the translation of a dengekionline interview with Tetsuya Mizuguchi about his new game Rez. This game looks truely incredible, mixing shooter and music maker into a new hybrid gameform.

If you click through the "next" links on the dengekionline link then there are a load of screenshots.
Looks pretty innovative..
Wow! Looks very nice indeed, all thumbnails though :( Where's the closeups?!
Praise be to developers willing to stray from the standard look and feel. Did people see that 3d pencil sketched game that was out a while back? I can't remember what it was called, Pencil-Whipped or something? Didn't look particularly good, but a nice idea all the same.
Found the links, check out the supremely amateurish screenshots here.
Then delve into its origins with a sample of it's early precursor, Big Ass Castle. A 110-page, pictorial choose-your-own-adventure book "drawn" by Pencil Whipped creator Lonnie Flickinger in 1986.

If you think that's bad you should see their second game "The Tickle People".

I wanted to post stuff about Rez ages ago but I couldn't
because I can't login from work, and I didn't remember
when I got home :(
