A trip to the local record store (landspeed records) to look for a Christmas present.
The place is pumping. Jostling with young people riffing through records and inspecting the vintage seconds clothing at the back of the shop.
I’m checking out the Jazz section, and this dude in his late teens stands next to me, intently reading the album notes on a John Coltrane disc. Incredulously, I cannot help but remark: Are you into jazz?
Absolutely… and I don’t have this one.
Could it be that there is a growing backlash against the streaming services and a desire to own an actual physical manifestation of the music?
These records are not cheap….$60 to $100 AUD for a mint disc. There was a queue to the cash register.
Some think this so-called vinyl resurgence is a rebellion against the soulless, empty convenience of digital streaming….
To young people in 2025, there is nothing in particular that stands out about listening to music via a subscription. For many, that is a soulless endeavour. There are no buttons to press, mechanics to feel or actions to take.
The aesthetic of a vinyl record is welcoming. […] a much more tactile and tangible movement than hitting a ‘play’ icon on your smartphone. […] Vinyl records offer an intentional listening experience that is undeniably deeply personal. While streaming services provide convenience, they can’t quite replicate the flow that comes with putting the needle down on your favourite record.
Others think it is more of superficial response…a way to physically signal your love of a particular group or artist, in addition to grabbing their stream.
Fifty-six percent of Gen Z fans like vinyl for its aesthetic, while 37% use it as home decor, according to a Vinyl Alliance survey. It’s part of what Jared Watson, an assistant professor of marketing at New York University, calls “symbolic consumption.”
“It could show that you’re a bigger fan or that you appreciate the artist more,” he noted, adding that albums are “affordable art.”
Jostling with the crowd in that record shop, and watching the young adults vinyl-hunting I had a definite feeling there was some sort of rebellion going on here.
Being way out of touch with the gen-whatever cultures, I have no idea how this is all playing out. Yet,hearing the jazz dude tell me he was into Coltrane gave me great hope that the all powerful social media algorithm can be subverted.
ALT text detailsAn adorable drawing of a pug-manatee mashup, floating in a white void. It has the cutest, grumpy, smooshed-up pug face, and a furry manatee body with nubby tail and front flippers. It was originally drawn by Vondell on Tumblr, roughly a decade ago.
ALT text detailsoh wow, incredible sleuthwork by you and the thread!
this is, if memory serves, one of the first of my drawings that ever got wide traction on my tumblr when I believe I was still in high school, which would be followed by a prolific few years of being extremely active across different blogs as I pursued the beginning of a professional art career, ultimately becoming overwhelmed and scaling back just a twitter and instagram, then culminating with me falling away from social media as a whole and moving back to rural [place] where I now live and work full time at a farm animal rescue.
It's so wild to see that drawing after all this time and it has brightened my day quite a lot!
The only social channel or website I keep at the moment is my youtube channel @itsvondell, where I put my occasional mashup music projects and. I still draw and make art of all sorts, mostly for fun or for a handful of longtime clients, but it's been a while since I shared it very widely online like I used to. Who knows what the future may hold though.
I don't believe anyone else in the world shares [my username], so any account anyone ran into with any variation of [Vondell] is some snapshot of me from some point in time. For better or for worse, lol.
Anyway, you have my express permission and blessing to repost, repurpose, modify or otherwise use the pugatee drawing for any purpose you may want to!
For tonight's Saturday Night Special, I proudly present - If You Don't Know Me by Now by Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes. While Simply Red did this song justice with their remake, my opinion is that nothing compares to the voice of Teddy Pendergrass singing on this song. It's such a heartfelt love song about deep emotional understanding and trust in a long-term relationship - something we can all relate to. It definitely ranks up there as one of my favorites. Enjoy!! 💖

"Every time I think that I'm the only one who's lonely Someone calls on me And every now and then I spend my time in rhyme and verse And curse those faults in me
And ... as the punch …" — Tandyn Almer
This morning, Along Comes Mary has been bouncing around in my head. It’s a song from the ’60s that some of you might recall, performed by The Association. Not the usual earworm, though—the rapid-fire tumble of lyrics is hard to wrap your head around, yet it flows with a rhythm that feels almost proto-rap. The sound is good, insistent, and somehow it lodged itself in my memory.
I didn’t help matters by looking it up online and stumbling across a clip from the Smothers Brothers show—another relic of the ’60s. I hadn’t thought of the song in decades, and then suddenly, boom, there it was. Why now?
Perhaps it’s because I read a brief news note about today’s Catholic observance—the Memorial of Our Lady of Loreto, commemorating the house in Italy where tradition holds that the Virgin Mary lived at the time of the Annunciation.
Of course, the song isn’t about that Mary. Maybe it’s just name association—by The Association.

Der Übeaufwand ist groß, aber es macht viel Spaß. Wwr genau hinhört, der kann Wagner- und Beethovenzitate ausmachen.
For tonight's Saturday Night Special, I proudly present - Can't We Try by Dan Hill & Vonda Shepard. Hard to believe this song was released in 1977. It feels like only yesterday. Anyway, the song is considered one of his most famous hits and its known for its heartfelt lyrics and soulful delivery. It's an emotional love song about a couple at a crossroads in their relationship that I think most of us can all relate. I know I can. Anyway, enjoy!! 💖
ALT text details The image is a black and white photograph. In the center of the image, there is a person who appears to be a man playing an instrument. He is dressed in clothing that suggests a style from an earlier era, possibly mid-20th century, and he has his eyes closed, which might indicate he is performing or deeply engaged in the music. The setting is a bar or restaurant with tables and chairs visible in the background, suggesting a public dining area. There is also a bottle on one of the tables, further indicating that this is a social setting.
There are two other people present in the image; one appears to be standing near a table, possibly interacting with it, while the other person is sitting at a bar counter. The individual playing the instrument is slightly off-center and occupies a larger portion of the frame than the other people. The focus on this central figure suggests that he is the main subject of the photograph.
The image has a grainy texture which is characteristic of black and white photography, especially when it comes to capturing older scenes or vintage aesthetics. The overall composition of the image places the musician as the focal point against a background that includes other patrons in the establishment.

On Thursday, instead of the usual quote post, I wrote a post about missing Arwen, as it's been 5 months since she passed away. I wrote about how I was trying to cope with things, how I wanted to move forward, and how I struggled with letting the traumatic events behind me. I had the post finished in time for it to be shared at my usual 7am posting time. I only needed to create the post's featured image, and I could schedule it to go...
But, my brain was all out of whack, or so it seemed. I was already so anxious about my GP appointment. I was distracted by many things, and it was hard to focus on doing things, even the things I usually enjoy doing! So, when I was checking my social bits at the gym on Thursday evening... I noticed that I never shared my blog post! Whoops! Especially since I am sooooo close to a 2000-day posting streak! I would not want to mess that up... Nope...

But, my brain was all out of whack, or so it seemed. I was already so anxious about my GP appointment. I was distracted by many things, and it was hard to focus on doing things, even the things I usually enjoy doing! So, when I was checking my social bits at the gym on Thursday evening… I noticed that I never shared my blog post! Whoops! Especially since I am sooooo close to a 2000-day posting streak! I would not want to mess that up… Nope…
I have been keeping myself busy with relaxing activies. As I shared before, I have started making jigsaw puzzles again. I started on Dumbo with my mum, after my second surgery. And I was able to finish it a while ago. A sweet friend gave me a smaller, but very awesome, Wolfmoon puzzle, and I loved to make that one. Now, it needs a frame, and a good spot. Ow, I also still need to find a good spot for the Dumbo puzzle, as I did frame that one already. Yesterday, I started a new puzzle. It’s a big one, to me at least, with 1500 pieces. And, with the image that I chose, it will probably be the most challenging puzzle I have ever made! I wonder if I will be able to finish it before the year is done with. 😇
I tried to start with the edges, and it seems that, even after sorting it twice, I did miss a piece or two. So the corner is almost complete. And then, the more difficult thing will come… These colors are beautiful, but terribly difficult as well. I guess there may be some cursing along the way, where I grumble at myself for wanting to make a puzzle like that. But, should I ever be able to finish it… I think I will feel mighty pround about that then.
I’ve also still been busy with reading… I finished the first 4 books by Dan Brown of the Robert Langdon series, and I am currently at 29% of the 5th book, “Origin”. The eReader “thinks” that it may take me another 9 hours or so to be able to finish it. And then, I can finally dig into the latest book in the series, The Secret of Secrets. I have enjoyed all the books, but so far, I have to admit, “Angels & Demons” is still my favorite. Maybe because it’s set in Rome, and the one time I have been there, it’s left quite an impression on me…
I think that reading the Robert Langdon books also inspired me to “work” on my old Italy pix again. With the help of AI, I am finally able to add the needed info to the snaps, and then upload them to my Flickr account. I am almost done with the pix that I took while we were in Rome/Vatican City. But there are still many pix to go, including Venice and Florence.
It’s been enjoyable to read more, to puzzle again, to try and relax. But my brain, it struggles at times to focus, even on these things that I enjoy doing. I wanted to embed my “Tidal Rewind” playlist here, but it seems that my free version of WP doesn’t allow me to embed it. Looks like I need a paid account to be able to do that (and some other things). I would love to get a paid version of the site, as I am interested in some of the other features as well. Maybe, some day, I can get the cheapest yearly option. Unfortunately, until then, I am only able to share a link and hope that it will work.
Click the link to, hopefully, be re-directed to my Tidal Rewind (2025) playlist. A vibrant, cosmic-themed music illustration bursting with colour and motion. At the center sits a large pair of glossy blue over-ear headphones, angled slightly forward as if inviting the viewer to step into the sound. The ear cushions glow softly, reflecting bright highlights, while the metallic parts shine with silver accents. Surrounding the headphones is an explosion of swirling light trails, sparkles, and star-like particles, creating the impression of music coming alive. Multicoloured musical notes—blue, pink, orange, yellow, and green—float and dance across the scene, each stylized with a glossy 3D shine. Behind them, a gradient background blends deep blues, purples, and golden tones, giving a dreamy, magical atmosphere. Across the center, partially overlaying the headphones, sits the bold title “Tidal Rewind” in a playful purple font with a soft blue outline, evoking a nostalgic, energetic playlist cover.
It is hard to keep my attention to one thing. When I am reading, I am eager to “work” on my Italy pictures. When I work on my pictures, I would like to try and make some progress with my latest puzzle. And, when I am staring blind on trying to find the right puzzle piece, part of me just wants to chill out with my eReader. 😇 So yeah, that’s not really helping me to properly relax…
I also want to be able to focus some more on my health again. I am struggling to lose weight, it seems that, no matter what I do, my weight just doesn’t want to go below the 80 kilo and stay below it… 😞 And I was grumbling about my muscles and fat percentage not willing to change in the right directions either. But, of course, this was/is mostly my own fault. I wasn’t putting in the needed efforts to improve. I was doing the least I could, because for a while, this was the most I could and I turned a tad lazy, and I wished to get results that I had when I was putting in way more efforts. So, I am now trying to push myself better again, so that I may finally be able to see some improvement… Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 that I will be able to get there… 🍀
Well, lets hope that I will be able to regain my focus again. That I will find a good balance between chores, exercise, and relaxing. I am glad that I have been able to pick up my love for puzzles again, after it had been abandoned due to bad memories of the hex. I am glad that I have been able to enjoy reading again. So much, that in the last 3 weeks, I have been able to finish 4 Dan Brown books, and I am 29% into the 5th… I have much to be grateful for, even though there are also some things that I still struggle with… But, I asked for help, and I am receiving some now, for which I am also very grateful. Step by step, bit by bit, day by day…

I like Christmas music, but hate the fact we only hear the same songs all the damn time. There are loads of good ones that you almost never hear. I’ve been compiling a playlist for a while now, and you can access it here:
Folk musician Pete Seeger had a custom banjo bridge made for him by legendary luthier Stu Jamieson. The bridge was designed to transfer more vibration from the strings up and into the center of the banjo head, making the head act like a conical speaker to project more sound, making it sound clearer in the process. It did this by using two light-weight legs to reach up toward the center of the banjo. It was originally made from printed circuit board material so that it didn't dull the sound with extra weight.
Only two bridges were ever made: one for Jamieson and one for Seeger. Jamieson's bridge was attached to a banjo that was stolen out of his car. The other bridge, on Seeger's famous handmade long neck banjo, was seen by millions of people.
Future attempts to make this bridge were fraught with problems, not least of which was getting a hold of Jamieson's original plans for the bridge and learning how to make it consistently. The other major issue was overcoming the fact that most modern computer chip material was toxic to work with.
This repo contains high-quality 2d and 3d CAD models of the bridge plans as extracted from Jamieson's original bridge plans and are within ~0.5 mm of tolerance to the originals.
Now, you can download these plans, feed them into a CNC router or a 3d printer (with some modifications) and make the bridge Jamieson one day hoped could be mass manufactured.
The material sourcing issue is solved by using G10 fiberglass and carbon fiber plates, neither of which contain the heavy chemicals required to make and process modern computer chips.

For tonight's Saturday Night Special, I proudly present - Caught Up In The Rapture by Anita Baker. While there are several Anita Baker songs I could have picked from, this ranks up there as one of my favorites. This song is a lush, soothing, and timeless—ideal for late-night listening. The track perfectly captures the quiet-storm mood meaning it' romantic, elegant, and deeply soulful. I just adore the slow mellow tempo combined with a jazz-inflected R&B arrangement. Anita most certainly goes on my list of beautiful voice singers. Enjoy!! 💖

I enjoyed today, although some was a little tricky to navigate, but not unexpected. My daughter & granddaughter picked me up & we went to the paediatrician where I was the calm presence that my granddaughter needed, the hugger & holder of hands & we all got through it. Some issues to deal with for my granddaughter, but she will be fine. After that we went to a local dumpling place for lunch where we each chose something different & shared between ourselves. Followed by a spot of shopping so granddaughter could spend some of her birthday money & help me choose a Christmas gift for another granddaughter who is of similar age Invaluable advice was given. After they dropped me off & went home I got a msg from my daughter to tell me that my granddaughter, Miss 8, wanted to tell me that I’m the best grandma & she loved me & I’m now stupidly teary 🥹. These are the days! So this is what I’m offering tonight - Walk of Life by Dire Straits - enjoy. #Music

For this weeks Saturday Night Special, break out the Marlboro light 100's, Aqua Net hairspray, Jordache jeans, and metal half shirts as I proudly present - Save Your Love by Great White. Ok, it might seem a little corny now in 2025. But back in the day when our Monsters Of Rock gods gave into their sensitive sides and released a power ballad, we all tuned in and listened. As I listen to some of them today, they sound a bit cringe. But still, this one to me is timeless and is still one of my favorites to this day. Anyway, Enjoy!! 💖

For this weeks Saturday Night Special, I proudly present - I'll Be Over You - Toto. This is one of their more popular songs. It's a classic that I'm sure most people have heard, or even spent a night or two listening to while getting over a love done. Fun fact - if the backup harmony's in some of the song sound familiar, that's because guest musician Michael McDonald signs on it. This song will always rank up there as one of my favorites.

An upright piano. Actually a slightly akimbo piano. The sort that probably sat in someones home, or in a school.
At first it was cared for, cleaned and dusted and visited every once in a while by the piano tuner.
All the music that was played on it. Can you imagine? Perhaps a girl learning her first chords, or a teacher singing to the class, or the soundtrack to the highschool production of Pirates of Penzance, or a refrigerator technician who on his off days had a passion for Chopin, or the random dissonance of a cat walking the keys.
Thousands of keypresses, millions.
But gradually, the music unravelled. Some keys started sticking, the piano tuner was ghosted and the sound acquired a tinny honky-tonk edge. And then it was sold. And then it was mostly ignored. And someone dropped a lamp and broke C#. And one of the wheels broke off and it was propped up on some books. And later it was sold again.
And.
One day. One time. The last note was played.
Here it is today. And I think you will agree, there is still a certain beauty in this thing. All that music, the history dormant in the sum of its parts,… a musical score frozen in form and only slightly captured in a photo.
But if you stood before it you would feel it. I am sure. A ruined piano, that still resonates with the quiet music. The stillness of the space between the notes.

Wer kennt ihn nicht, Bruce Springsteen, den Arbeiter aus den U.S.A.? Und ich wette, ich bin nicht der einzige, der bei Born in the USA an ein Loblied auf Amerika dachte. Aber irgendwann hört man nicht mehr nur die kraftvolle Stimme und die energiegeladene Musik. Irgendwann hört man den Texten zu, hört vom Versagen, von Ablehnung und Verlust. Er sing von den harten Zeiten, vom Dreck und Schweiß und dem täglichen Kampf um's Überleben. Man sagt, Born in the USA sei sein bestes Album. Ich will es gerne glauben. Ich meine, sieben Hits nur auf diesem Album... . #nowplaying#vinyllove#vinyl#music#brucespringsteen#turntable#photography#darktable

Between the turntables, there's a DJ mixer with various knobs and buttons. Some of these are illuminated by the blue power light, as well as the green lights of the volume meter, adding to the colorful lighting effect.
The equipment has been set up on a table in the dark, where the depth of field completely obscures any surrounding detail, which makes the bright lights from the turntables and mixer stand out more prominently.
Toujours pas de gouvernement, de budget. Mais Georges Louis Bouchez, notre grand seigneur omniscient va régler tout cela, il connaît son bien Bruxelles et ses habitants.

I'm Cam R. (my preferred name) and this is my PERSONAL #Mastodon account. I also identify as (and demigirl, can't find the custom emoji for that on my instance) with she/her pronouns. I'm sticking to Mastodon from now on since I have had mostly bad experiences with other social media platforms, the latest being Bluesky and Pinterest. By the way, this account is, and has, NOT been bridged to Bluesky since the beginning of October. I am also no longer on Bluesky (for obvious reasons). #NoBridge
I just like #art, #music, #HerbalMedicine, #WebDesign, #FrontEnd#WebDev (as a thing I like to do and learn for myself), #academic#nonfiction, #hiking#trails, #food, and #psychology / #psychiatry / #neurology (despite the fact that I don't have a college degree in any of those things. I just happen to like reading about them more than doing the actual work I guess. I won't claim to be an expert on anything I don't know well). I can't afford to take care of pets or anything else at the moment. I also may have some off days, and I cannot control those who may block/mute me as a result of my actions. This does not excuse my actions, however, and I'm committed to working on myself to be a better person.
I do actually use but mostly through live USB environments rather than installed, because some Windows applications do not work well with WINE (I use https://privacy.sexy to remove unwanted features that Windows 11 imposes, so everything's okay for now)

For this weeks Saturday Night Special, I proudly present - The Heart Of The Matter by Don Henley. This song brings back a lot of memories when I hear it. Back in 1990 I had just broken up from a pretty long and somewhat serious relationship. I just decided that it wasn't working and I was no longer in love with him. Still, despite me being the one who ended things, it was hard for me and I spent the next few weeks crying on and off. It didn't help that this song was popular and on the radio often, and he reached out and dedicated it as his song to me. Many years later I've since gotten over all that. Still, whenever I hear it, it brings that distinct memory. Anyway, enjoy!! 💖

ALT text detailsI signed up for a platform, it was shiny and new
Everything was working, it was all so true
But then the changes started, creeping in the night
First it was a little shit, now it's a fucking blight
This enshittification, it's a corporate spell
They're turning heaven into a personalized hell
Oh, this shit, shit, enshittification!
It's a platform's slow damnation!
Yeah, this shit, shit, enshittification!
Our patience has reached its expiration!
The feed is full of garbage, the ads are in my face
They've stripped away the function, they've ruined the place
They're squeezing all the users, and the sellers too
There's nothing left for anyone, but the shareholder's view
This enshittification, it's a painful, slow decline
Every update is another shitty, crooked line
Oh, this shit, shit, enshittification!
It's a platform's slow damnation!
Yeah, this shit, shit, enshittification!
Our patience has reached its expiration!
Locked in! No way out!
That's what it's all about!
They take our data, our time, our friends
This shitty, shitty journey never ends!
One shit, two shits, three shits, four!
We won't take this shit anymore!
Oh, this shit, shit, enshittification!
It's a platform's slow damnation!
Yeah, this shit, shit, enshittification!
Our patience has reached its expiration!
Enshittification... what a shitty, shitty world...
Enshittification... watch the whole thing twirl...
Down the toilet... in a swirl of shit...
Enshittification... this is the end of it.

C'est une histoire de gros sous...
Ils sont venus un matin, au bord de la Seine
Avec un camion volé, et des idées bien malsaines
Quatre hommes masqués, un plan bien ficelé
Pour piquer les joyaux de la Galerie d'Apollon
Ils avaient pour complice, un engin allemand
"Silencieux comme un murmure" - c'était le bon argument!
En sept minutes chrono, un trou dans la vitrine
Et hop ! les joyaux sont partis, direction la routine...
Et la maison Böcker, elle fait sa pub maintenant !
Avec notre patrimoine, c'est un peu gênant...
"Quand il faut agir vite !" - quel slogan brilliant !
On vole notre histoire, et eux, ils en sont contents !

Then they enshittified all of it
Shit, shit, everything’s shit

Shit, shit, can’t commit

Algorithms lie, truth gets buried
All for the shareholders they married

Remember when we used to care?
Now it’s just ads and billionaire flair
We scream into the void, they don’t hear

Ohhh, enshittification celebration
Let’s toast to the death of innovation
Yeah, they enshittified me...

Protest music once challenged power, but the industry has learned to tame it. Songs born from struggle—by artists from Bob Marley to Rage Against the Machine—are repackaged, stripped of context, and sold as safe nostalgia, turning rebellion into background noise for the very systems it once defied. #Music#Culture#History#Politics#Art#SocialCommentary#Essays#MusicHistory#Protest

Logbook – Entry 3659. As our ship drifts slowly through deep, unknown space, I wonder if the earth is still blue. After all these years. At daybreak. When the sun begins to shine. Do the birds still sing? Can we still remember the sound of rain or even the wind? We followed in the footsteps of those explorers, who left long before us.. we too are lost. Drifting in the immensity of space.

"Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be. There's a shadow hanging over me. Oh, yesterday came suddenly. ..." - Paul McCartney
The Beatles song “Yesterday” was, for a time, my favorite—back when I was a brooding teenager. Or maybe it shared that honor with “Help,” another track from the same album. “Yesterday” conjured feelings of loss and hinted at emotions that felt ancient, even though I was only thirteen and my life had barely begun. Why it resonated so deeply, I’m not sure. I didn’t have a long-ago past to mourn. But at that age, thirteen years is a literal lifetime.
Thinking of it that way, it’s been more than five lifetimes since.
The lyric about not being half the man I used to be always made me pause. What was I thinking then? Because, quite literally, I wasn’t yet half the man I would become. We see and feel everything from our own shifting vantage point—fluid, evolving—as we add new experiences to our repertoire.
"The "past beats inside me like a second heart.” — John Banville
“Songs are the pulse of memory, the breath of time.” — Ceremonial riff, sovereign dispatch

Not a lot of experience but full of genuine passion and not afraid of experimenting and just doing what I like even when it's not everyone's cup of tea.
Was thinking about "songs that formed me" (h/t @Waitnwallflower) and I realized I missed one of my biggest ones: "Sweetness and Light" by Lush.
Here I am, college student, 1990 or so, friend has MTV, and this song blasts out. I fell in love instantly. Cannot explain it but every single part of this song hit perfectly. And it still does, even after a ridiculously long time.
I'm so glad that Miki Berenyi and Emma Anderson are both still making music. Cheers to both of them, and a hat tip to the late Chris Acland as well.
ALT text detailsA cover of A Stillness in the Rain, composed by ConcernedApe for the game Stardew Valley. A simple melody in a minor key. New instruments are layered as the melody repeats and the sound of rain and thunder are heard, first quietly in the distance and then sweeping closer as the tune continues and the intensity builds. The melody from Overture (the title screen theme) in a minor key is added, first underneath the melody and then replacing it.

July, 1976. Freshman Orientation Weekend @ East Carolina University. The buzz in the men's dorm where I stayed was about a free pig-picking out in the country with kegs-a-plenty where *all the girls would be.
Shy, queer me sipped a beer and watched guys from the perimeter, away from the commotion and smoke of a pig, slowly turning over a fire.
Someone behind me said, "Who *are these fucking people!" and snort-laughed. I turned to see a woman in shorts, tank top and low-rise Converse, smirk fixed.
Amy of Elizabeth, New Jersey and I were instant friends, and she was, that day, the first person I came out to in Greenville.
"Duh!" was her response, laughing and asking me who in the crowd I found attractive.
Sometime later, the DJ played "Amie" by Pure Prairie League and Amy of Elizabeth, New Jersey screamed and danced! It was HER song. ❤️

I get many #WebcamGirl followers on #SocialMedia that I delete. This #Suno#GenAI song that I prompted & wrote the lyrics for is a motivational song for girls in a demeaning position to help build their confidence & steer them in a more positive direction.
I had to manually fix this song, so I figured I'd upload it here while I have the mp4 file handy. Enjoy! ✌😄
My name is Chris, I am married to my wife and I have 2 dogs. I grew up in Santa Clara, CA and have lived in the bay area for most of my life. I work in #video production and instructional design. I am an ally for trans and lgbtq+ rights. I originally started this #selfhosted instance in 2022 because I was curious about the #fediverse, and it's just me on here. It's gone through a few iterations and currently runs on top of #gotosocial. Politically I'm abhorred by the circus sideshow that has taken over the US government, but still hopeful that we will find our way out of it. I value expertise and effortful learning; I despise shortcuts and know-it-alls. I like making #music and #traveling. I find myself needing fewer and fewer material things every day. I appreciate #humor in many forms and flavors. I like to #sew hats and various pieces of clothing, bags, utility pouches. If you see this, remind me to #meditate today because I probably forgot to, what with the #ADHD and all. If your account is fake I will block you. Here for a good time and to meet good people.
There's a starman waiting in the sky 하늘에서 스타맨이 기다리고 있어 He'd like to come and meet us 그는 여기로 와 우릴 만나고 싶어하지만 But he thinks he'd blow our minds 저 자신이 우릴 너무 놀라게 할 거라고 생각해 There's a starman waiting in the sky 하늘에서 기다리는 스타맨이 있어 He's told us not to blow it 그는 우리에게 그걸 퍼뜨리지 말라고 했어 Cause he knows it's all worthwhile 왜냐하면 그 모든게 가치 있다는 걸 아니까 He told me 그가 내게 말하길 Let the children lose it 아이들이 그것에 빠지게 하자 Let the children use it 아이들이 그걸 쓰게 하자 Let all the children boogie 모든 아이들이 부기춤을 추게 하자

The sirens wear suits now, they polish their lies
They point at the broken and call them the spies
The camps aren’t called camps yet, the trains run on time
But the darkness is gathering, creeping like brine...
You say “It can’t happen”—we’ve read this before
While they chip at the courthouse and kick down the door
The children in cages, the tents swept away
Is this how it starts?
They’ll say “Just the junkies,” “Just those without papers”
“Just queers and just commies—the order-breakers!”
They’ll jail the truth-tellers and doctors who heal
While the profit-men pocket their mercenary steal...
’Cause it’s nineteen thirty-four in the land of the free!
Open your eyes now—what do you see?
The uniforms changing, the targets the same
The vulnerable bleeding, wrapped up in the blame!
From Work-Shy to “Vermin”—they’re dusting that script!
Don’t you dare look away while the match is lit!
IT’S nineteen thirty-four—BUT WE’RE STILL HERE TO FIGHT!
KINDLE THE WATCHFIRES—LET BURN THROUGH THE NIGHT!
IT’S nineteen thirty-four—BUT THE FUTURE’S UNWRITTEN!
DON’T WAIT FOR THE ASHES—RIGHT NOW WE’RE SMITTEN!
WITH JUSTICE AS ARMOR AND TRUTH AS OUR SONG!
WE’RE THE FLOOD THEY FEARED—AND WE’RE TEN THOUSAND STRONG!
SO WHEN THEY WHISPER “HATE US”—WE’LL SHOUT “LOVE DEFEATS!”
AND PLANT A FOREST OF HANDS WHERE THEY PAVED THE STREETS!
NO, IT’S NOT TOO LATE NOW—OUR CHOICE IS THE FLOOR!
WE WON’T LIVE IN nineteen thirty-four!
Never again is now...
Never again is now...
Never again is NOW.

Spotify’s CEO Daniel Ek has raised €600M for his new startup, which is developing AI TECH FOR WAR. Ek still owns 9% of Spotify, but has 37% voting control. His net worth went from $2.5B to $10B in the last two years alone, on the back of paying musicians a pittance in royalties.
And don’t forget:
• Spotify spent $250M of your subscription dollars to invite Joe Rogan to spew his disinformation on their platform. • They’re still trying to embrace and extinguish Podcasts. • They’re developing in-house, AI-generated “music” so users will play them (royalty-free) instead of music created by humans (who demand royalty).
And now, he’s using his wealth, created by your subscriptions, to fund tech that will use AI to literally murder humans in war.

Hello, I'm Tock. Used to be on Universeodon (left before Byron did), and Firefish (Still like Misskey, just haven't found a instance I liked yet that wasn't a stretch on my part to try to fit in.)
Yeah, white male IT professional. There's a million of us on Mastodon, figuratively. I'm trying not to be that "tech bro". Trying not to be that performative ally who runs when their friends are in trouble. Trying not to be that mansplainer who talks over women. Trying not to be that guy I've been the last thirty years... Even if it's no longer the goal of men like me under US Fascism.
This can't be the world we made. There has to be something better than this.
I am a #BlueLivingInARedState and making plans to leave it (Texas) soon. I look forward to living in a place where 50% of the people voted for Kamala instead of 50. Fight fascism. It might be the last fight left for many of us.
If I follow you, I like what you have to say. You don't have to follow me back.

As I messed up my instance while trying to migrate it, here's yet another introduction. I'm Simon, one of those greybeards they tell you about. Husband, Dad, musician, career internet wrangler living in West Yorkshire in the UK. I keep my daughter in tomato ketchup by fixing people's systems, primarily Linux and open source (surprise surprise). For fun, I make music with a small pile of synths I've accrued, and last year I started letting people hear it more, including having tracks on the last Bonkwave compilation. When I'm not doing all that, I sort of dabble in stuff. Cooking - my wife and I are trying veganism with about 95% success, walking in our area - it's handy living on the edge of a moor, and taking photos but not really that seriously.

Bulldog Mansion) 내 나이 스물여덟 이제 한 숨은 없어 벅찬 가슴을 열어 남자의 꿈을 던져 아무리 가진 게 없다 할지라도 내가 걷는 길이 자갈밭이라도 난 원망은 안해요 이 모두를 기쁘게 받아 들일꺼야 그리고 푸른 하늘에 떠있는 구름을 즐기며 또 느끼어 여유로운 나를 기념할꺼야 힘든가요? 세상이 짖꿎나요? 당신을 몰라주는 사람들이 미운가요? 하지만 조금만 더 생각을 하고 뒤를 봐요 저마다 아름답게 손을 잡고 길을 가요 지금이 어렵다고 생각할진 몰라도 조금은 단순하게 사는 것도 좋아요 그래요 모두 같이 시작해요 자!자!자! 한번 더 크게 라라라~ #뮤직토돈#music
My name is Mike (a.k.a. "shellsharks”) - I am a security researcher, #IndieWeb advocate, all-things #Fediverse convert and all around #tech enthusiast.
So what's going on with this instance? Is this my "main" presence or am I still on shellsharks.social? Fair question. The answer is, yes! This is a #GoToSocial instance, on a new fun, shiny, vanity domain. If it works out, I might end up moving all my activity over here and shutting down the Mastodon instance I have at shellsharks.social. Until then, I'm operating out of both spaces. This also means that for now, I haven't migrated my followers (or followed accounts) over here, so don't be offended if I haven't followed you back yet! I don't want to knock this fairly low-spec'ed instance over so I'm taking it slow with how I am using it.
Why am I doing this? Well for one main reason really, I wanted an instance where I could post more than 500 characters at a time. GtS gives me that, and much more. Bonus points for A. being less resource intensive than Mastodon (so cheaper to run), B. more customizable and C. I could get an even more ridiculous vanity domain.
So don't be surprised to see a lot more from this account than my usual @shellsharks account. If you'd like, you can follow me here for now. No worries either way.
Yesterday I directed the shoot for the #pilot of my wife's children's #TV show, Lilypad Library. She's been developing the show for the past year, and it was so amazing to get talented people together and get an episode filmed. I'm incredibly proud of her, and I'm proud of myself for getting everything we needed shot in a single day.
I have a lot of editing work ahead of me, but it will be great to have a rough cut to show at #Kidscreen.
ALT text detailsThe studio set up for a day of shooting. At the back is a blue screen since two of our main characters are predominantly green. Various lights are set up to light the blue screen and the talent. Down in front is the audio mixer for capturing voice performance, and the camera which is outputting to an external monitor so the puppeteers can have a real-time view of their performance.

1/ 🧵 Hey everyone, I realize that I never did a proper #introduction before because I’m not very good at talking about myself (my hubby hates that), but I realize you might want to know a little about the person who comments on all your interesting, creative, and artistic posts.

In case you've used your monitor outputs on your console for a headphone Amp & you need one Aux bus to send a signal to a separate monitor on the ground, you will only be able to use mono effects in your mix using Aux bus two. I would advise you to use the headphone output from your sub mixer to feed your headphone amp.
You may also connect your effect using an insert cable so that it works dedicated only on one channel
Just like with built in effects your Send is decided by Aux Send your Return is decided by Aux Return which gives The amount of decibels dB of the effect in the mix
If your console only has two Aux busses you can either use both for the stereo effect, or use one for two discrete effects if you do not wish to daisy chain them. You will then have two parallel effects which can be used layered on your whole mix.
There are hundreds of ways of connecting an effect to your mixing console. There is one way to connect an effect to my sub mixer
When you use the Auxiliary busses you have to send the signal through a tip/sleeve cable to the effect, then return the signal to the console Aux return Channel. For a stereo effect you need to use two Aux busses. Your console has send Pot. meters and return Pot. meters for every bus.
However I am tired of constantly switching between the sub mixer which is very handy, for all my instruments and a direct connection to the main console which costs me two XLR connectors, and literally two mics less to connect The cables are of 3m in length which is within the parameters of an instrument cable that should be no more than 6 - 9 meters. This means the cables are not picking up any noise from the environment
I should also mention that the unstable output devices are connected with the sub mixer through RCA to 1/4" cables, with No stable matching Transformers in between. The cables are 3 meters in length.
When I want to record from the main audio device, I take a passive or active direct box with the active direct box padded to -20dB. /5
¡The lesson learned is that the noise is still carried through the sleeve pole of the devices, **through** the powered off sub mixer, all the way up to the main mixing console!
I have a replacement coming in, of the important recording audio device, which comes with proper 1/4" connections. All the unstable devices have RCA outputs.
I love how physics works, especially when it challenges my logic thought
Only when the final device was pulled off the hum disappeared. Mind you that the sub mixer is powered off so no noise should come through. Then I remembered that the negative (sleeve) side of the devices was of course still connected with the main mixing console. When the devices are connected On a passive or active direct box the hum is pushed down by The Transformers to level which is acceptable, somewhere at minus 68dB
Because of reasons that I'm still tracing down the sub mixer cannot cut the hum that comes from the unstable connections enough so that it goes down real far within the noise plane. Just for fun I powered off the sub mixer pushed up the volume of my headphone amp was not surprised that I was still hearing that hum. One by one I pulled out the connectors of my unstable audio devices
I love the fact that you keep on learning when you do audio. I currently have a few devices which have unstable outputs. I have connected them to my sub mixer which does the conversion to stable on its Master outputs TRS which go to the main mixing console.
ALT text detailsBlack-and-white vertical video showing about one and a half octaves of piano keys, from above.
My hands float and stretch through it, playing.
The video is tilted to its side, meaning that my fingers are constantly pointing to the left side of the screen.
Sound-wise, this is a slow and thoughtful piece in D-flat major.
The question asked by its title is, in my opinion, shown through open-ended phrases. The melody keeps pointing upwards, not really receiving a stable answer.
The piece also ends in an open way, with the melody ending on the third, so it kind of feels like there's no cadenza happening.
Please feel free to ask me about it as well, if you like of course.
I left Spotify in 2021 and started listening to my own music collection. I already had the MP3s and/or the CDs from which to rip them, so I hosted them on my Plex server and started listening to them using the excellent Plexamp mobile client.
One thing I missed from Spotify was the "wrapped" listening summary... but I'd always believed I could improve on what Spotify delivered. This winter break I spent some time implementing a solution in Microsoft Fabric. I used data from my Plex server's SQLite database for recent years, and from the JSON files that Spotify will send you if you make a GDPR data request for older years. I standardized enriched both data sets with the open source MusicBrainz database, and then visualized some Spotify-inspired vanity metrics in Power BI.
Happy New Year. I know things feel really hard for a lot of us right now, so let me tell you something important:
In the highland rainforest of NSW, in the Werrikimbe region, there’s a community of superb lyrebirds. Lyrebirds are known for their unparalleled mimicry: they can reproduce the call of any bird they hear (and many other sounds as well). They collect songs like crows collect shiny objects. The variety and complexity of their repertoire, and the skill with which they deliver it, determines their reproductive success.
They also compose songs of their own. These songs vary from region to region; they are learned by lyrebirds when they're young, and passed down from generation to generation with remarkable stability. If a lyrebird finds or produces a new melody that other lyrebirds like, they absorb it into the communal repertoire.
The lyrebirds that live in the Werrikimbe are called flute lyrebirds because in winter, when they're in love, they sing a complex rising melody which sounds like scales played on a flute. This "flute accent" exists nowhere else in the world; it’s unique to this one community. On cold mornings, it floats down through the mists like an enchantment.
How did this haunting melody come about? It's said that a young boy kept a tame lyrebird, and every day the bird listened to him practicing the flute. Then one day the bird escaped. It went to live with its wild brethren, and taught them this new song.
But the truth is much more magical: Lyrebirds composed this song all on their own. It's more complex than any human flautist could ever hope to achieve, and it’s got features unique to lyrebird melody and anatomy.
Lyrebirds live and breathe music. They are built for music. They spend their lives studying the soundscape. They listened to the world around them, all of the pain and suffering and desire and joy, and this is what they sang back into it.

rode away on the midnight train, cause I've got a job to do
My life's in constant change, there’s nothing left for me to prove
try to soothe my mind with some visionary dream
living in ruins is where I feel at home it seems
I defied a thousand storms
born to bend and break the norms
the debris will, hold the key to, what our world can be
nothing left for you to take from me
nothing to hide but I'm still free
Now we know we, have no choice but, working with the sea

I am ostensibly human and can prove it cryptographically.
I like Art, all art, and most technologies. I hack mostly Perl, Bash, and Python but have spent the most of my time building websites with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (ever since Flash/ActionScript died). I've been working with AI since long before LLMs were a thing, mostly for creative endeavors. I survived the flame wars and will no longer tolerate that kind of behavior. I am not a "Real Programmer" and neither is anyone else.
I play guitar, mandolin, some piano & drums, and I'm picking up ukulele a little. I crochet manageably and knit poorly. I can still do a fair number of my old magic tricks, but nobody really wants to see that kinda stuff anymore. I occasionally draw, collage, and paint as well as repair most household objects.
I have art and writing on my website(s), and if you can find them all hopefully you enjoy some of it, because I am not a "Content Creator" and I'm not interested in becoming an "Influencer," I just want to make stuff and experience life and share it with the world at my discretion.
I'm married with 2 kids, but usually I keep them out of my online interactions for their privacy.

I made this Solarpunk playlist for times like these. There are two playlists. This is the longer one for shuffling. (The other is short enough for 1-2 listening sessions and tells a mood story in order.)
Tracks span the moods from political to apocalyptic, from love of nature to learning to cope, from sentiments of rebellion to outright calls to action, from community building to emotional healing. It is cathartic, sad, hopeful, and inspiring.

Alright, #introduction time I guess. For those that find me from the use of silly hashtags, welcome to this madhouse. Sometimes I bite. I play #videogames, listen to #music, look at #art, among other forms of entertainment that the masses don't. I'll share these with you, & perhaps we might have something in common. Who knows. The folk I spend the most time with are weird motherfuckers. And you know what? I wouldn't want it any other way. So, welcome. Welcome to the madness. We have cookies.

Hello... Hello, friend.
The #Nashville#music scene, as far as I can tell, is far more business than fun. Which is a shame. Everyone talks about how they expect to grind for years and years to maybe become successful.
If you make music that someone (even just you) likes, you are a successful musician. Congrats! It's already more than most people will ever do. Enjoy that. Then do it again if you like. Find other people to do it with. Find people to share it with. Hit me up if you need a bass line.
This is the first song composed for The Shipyard's soundtrack. Music by Julian Bohn. See (hear?) more at https://julianbohn.com/fre/

Regenerating my #introduction post on the new instance:
My name is Mike (a.k.a. "shellsharks”) - I am a security researcher, #IndieWeb advocate, all-things #Fediverse convert and all around #tech enthusiast.
I've been a musician since I was a child. I started playing the saxophone and joined various orchestras, big bands and other ensembles. At the age of 12 I saw the film School of Rock, which inspired me to learn to play the guitar on my own (a total cliché, I know 😅). I was part of several bands and we had a good time! I wrote a lot of songs (like "Projekt 04 piano 3" below). During my studies I did not have much time for music, but I started to learn the piano, again on my own.

Fuck, I got a #FF shout-out from Bread and Circuses. Better do that intro I've been meaning to (re) do! Hello, new followers!
Who am I: a lady, a bitch, a woman, a human. Cisgender, queer, white. Living in New York, where I was born, but I have traveled. Doing my best to support my Darling Nonbinary Spouse in their challenges being one of very few Black people in our community. Currently working as a drafter of soil/water conservation infrastructure. Before that, I bounced around a lot. Did construction and childcare and food service and data entry and more.
What you can expect from me: PLENTY boosts. I see it, I like it, I boost. Regular posts about #ClimateChange, #Degrowth, #GreenBuilding, and related topics. Commentary about social justice. Some news, but more opinion, about USA and NYS politics. I tag these (USpol/NYpol), but don't CW them. Edit: almost forgot to mention: I'm an anarchist apparently (I had to look it up) and I hate capitalism.
Other, less weighty stuff I like to talk about: #music of any genre. I'm developing the desire to become a DJ and collect vinyl, somebody stop me! #Crochet and fiber arts. #SciFi, #SpecFic. Not a skilled shitposter but I do appreciate the art form.
Fair warning: I like to argue. If you don't enjoy seeing someone go back and forth with mildly offensive bootlickers from time to time, I may not be your cup of tea. And don't worry about my mental health WRT arguments, to my brain a good argument is a lot like a good video game.
Also on the subject of this year's music, I have made an end-of-year playlist, of some songs what I liked from 2023. As it was such a good year for music I enjoy, it's an awfully long playlist, a trifle over three hours.
There've been years in the past when I've struggled to get much beyond one hour, so three hours is a lot for me.
Even then, there was a lot that I missed out - nothing on here from Erland Cooper, Lila Tirando a Violeta, Erin Hopes, Craven Faults, all of whom made records that I loved.
So, yes, in the unlikely event that anyone wants to know what I picked out from this year in a three hour playlist, here it is:
It's time for an #introduction post! Yes, I've been on Mastodon for a while, but decided that I should really be on my own (private, maybe with some friends) instance. So as of today, I am @jarjan

Fourth track: growly bass strings and bassoon play a rapid ostinato with an aggressive brass-and-string melody over them. The intensity subsides just to build again.
Fifth track: a swirling flute melody over a variety of accompaniments from strings and percussion. The mood is hectic and overwhelmed though it stops briefly for a slightly anxious chord before carrying on.
Sixth track: a clarinet melody over harp and strings suggests something unearthly but bright and beautiful
Seventh track: a full orchestral build and climax.
I cringe internally describing my own music. I hope this is helpful and doesn’t seem conceited.
I'm @paul. On the fowl site I was known as #FeedingTubePaul because I first started tweeting feeding tube awareness videos after getting mine on April 16, 2012, 11 years ago.
My social life & purpose evolved so here I am just Paul & @hashtaggames
Life: #horror movies, music, #camping, curious and loves to learn, social justice, and to my surprise, a #runner who has #run 15,477 KM Jan 2020 - Dec 2022.
If you stop and look at something the more closely you examine it, the more amazing it becomes.

I'm very interested in #webhistory and the #indieweb. I've had follow requests on (and will likely indefinitely) since the Twitter exodus but feel free to request a follow, I'll accept if you seem like an ok person. Don't be offended if I don't though.
In 2015 I left my abuser of seven years, and since have been disabled with #PTSD and other chronic conditions, fighting #suicide. I was unable to work at all for five years. My personal narrative now is about recovery out of that #DarkSojourn. I'm usually in some kind of pain, and try not to whine too much about it. I'm #Genderfluid#nonbinary (they/them) of recent transition, #polyamorous, and #bisexual.

New server, new #introduction. I'm Jennifer, go by 'Theogrin' and 'Schism' elsewhere, and I'm a #trans woman in her mid-30s just hanging out here and trying not to go crazy in today's world. My big draws are #writing, #hacking, #tech, #music and of course cute girls. Might be a little #politics in there too. Oh, and #cooking - I cook a lot.
Hope to make friends with all those worthy of friendship!
I'm here to make friends so I don't feel so alone here at the end of the world. You like #cats? That's a follow. You like/make #music? Follow. You have #ADHD? Follow. You geek out about your hobbies? You like #scifi and/or #fantasy? Follow! Are you funny? Kind? #Antifascist? Worried about the #ClimateCrisis? Follow, follow, follow!

I'm overdue for an #introduction! I'm Justin, an #independent app #developer for Apple's platforms. I make a sheet music reading app called #forScore and a number of other apps. I started my own company in 2010 and never looked back. Living in Seattle and Palm Springs. Lifelong #musician and #photographer. Born in South Africa, raised in California.
@SDF I’m a once-and-future-aspiring-rock-star. About twenty years ago, my band #ThePhoenixTrap released our only full-length CD. (Remember those?) I played #BassGuitar.
The single “You’re On Fire” was featured on the 2003 #CreativeCommons Copy Me/Remix Me CD. The album is licensed CC BY-NC-SA so you can download the #lossless audio from @internetarchive to share and #remix to your heart’s content.
My title is traffic consultant though originally I'm an M.Sc. in computer engineering. Professionally I do a lot of #DevOps, #Linux, #GIS, data analysis, etc.
Available and interested in projects, interviews, and conversation.
Tips are welcome and appreciated so I can afford to continue to share my expertise freely, especially to others who would not otherwise be able to afford it. If you'd like to do that, there's a link in my bio.
Hey everyone! I'm Matthew Whitaker, an Emmy Nominated professional blind touring musician, producer, singer, songwriter, and accessibility advocate. My musical journey has led me to collaborate with legends like Stevie Wonder, Christian McBride, Dr. Lonnie Smith, and Kim Tibs. You might have seen my performances on shows like The Harry Connick Jr. Show, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and Showtime at The Apollo.
I'm passionate about making technology accessible for blind users and love working with developers to achieve this. A Juilliard graduate, I currently serve as the Minister of Music at New Hope Baptist Church in Hackensack, New Jersey, where I was born and raised.
Beyond music, I enjoy video and audio games, skiing, indoor rock climbing, and bowling. I love spending time with family and exploring new musical and non-musical adventures. Excited to connect with you all here!
Until the #Fediverse, I was away from social media for about ten years b/c in its corporate forms it makes me crazy. Turns out, though, it's probably not the humans that are damaged, just the platforms. So glad to be here!
ALT text detailsAlison is lying on a bench under a sign on a brick wall that says "Wake me up when I'm famous" in large white letters on a black background.
I’m focused on learning and getting hands-on with #RaspberryPi at home and #cloud computing solutions both at work and at home.
I moved into a #SecurityEngineering role in 2020, so a lot of my focus is now more security focussed across all tech stacks.
My main focus at present when it comes to cloud is predominately #Microsoft#Azure, with Google and AWS of interest also, as well as other cloud infrastructure services such as those provided by CloudFlare, though I’m planning a move away from them due to their moral/ethical choices.
Away from work and tech, I love to #travel the world with my wife and enjoy very amateur #photography to record our adventures.
I also love most genres of #music, live in concert when I can, with a particular love of #Rock/ #Metal and also #Trance (coincidentally, given the profession of a somewhat more well known namesake of mine!).
How rude of me - I haven't introduced myself. I have been Tom all my life - sometimes, as a GP, Dr. Tom (remote rural places and occasionally really remote - Antarctica and the Falkland Is.) Love all kinds of #music but especially "classical", #poetry and am fascinated by playing with words. Play the tenor and baritone sax for my own pleasure (from Bach to Piazzolla). #Green, #lefty, #photography, #psychology and #art. Rebuilding my life and learning to be myself. Alone. Love this place.
An updated #introduction after giving it some more thought ...
I'm Matt, an artist and musician based in Toronto/Tkaronto. I work in and around computation, thinking about its histories, politics, culture, and computation-as-material. My main efforts right now are around computational poetics, expanded sculpture, and net art. I believe computers could be something different in the world, and try to embody that in my work and life.
I make music mainly as New Tendencies, but sometimes under other names and used to play in a number of punk/post-punk bands in addition to my more experimental/electronic/computer music and sound art. I also have a very very small label/press called <blink>.
I live with my partner of over 20 years and a 10 year old Bengal cat named Iggy (because she's a real wild child).
My online life goes back to around 1992 when I started calling BBS's, and running one... then soon after getting an internet connection and basically living on IRC where I got into the demo/tracker scene and started making computer music.
Also love sci-fi, video games, Hackers (1995), bad reality tv, cocktails...
Hi, I’m Deborah (Debbie, Deb). I live in #Melbourne, #Australia on Wurundjeri land. I am a white Gen X parent to 3 #cats and 2 #dogs. I am the #sysadmin at a plastics company; follow the saga at #SysadminLife (or mute if you’re just here for the pets).
I always CW these topics: alcohol, food, medical, politics, eye contact, racism, violence. I always describe images. I may add image descriptions to your posts so that I can boost them. I have a long list of muted terms; thank you for using them consistently and CWing your posts. No flirting, please.
Racists, misogynists, ableists, queerphobes, antivaxxers, and sovcits can get lost. If you evangelize AI, cryptocurrency, open-source-above-all or tech owned by arseholes, I will say things that make you unhappy.
I joined the Fediverse in 2018. I admin old.mermaid.town, operating since 2022.
#Introduction #Twexit brought me here. Not going back. Canadian European stuck in Little England. #FBPE pro #NHS#PA & #PR, anti #brexit, anti tory. Recovering ex-guitarist. I’ll be a proper guitarist again when I get my jamming mojo back. I love #music, laughter, #science, sci-fi, fantasy, & Oxford commas. Not as used as I young to be.
#music - Rock, especially 60s and 70s. Listening and collecting, especially on #vinyl and #8tracks. I also play #bass and #clarinet (but not bass clarinet!)
I'm George Penney, a #sff#comedy#fantasy#mystery author who writes with my lovely partner, Tony Johnson (AKA the Kraken). I also sometimes write snort laugh #books under the name Evie Snow, which are in the process of being republished. I have a couple of podcasts too.
Until recently, I house sat globally full-time so people who've followed me for a bit would have seen me around recording the various sagas of my (mainly) feline overlords.
Lately I have settled in a delightful small city in Aotearoa New Zealand and I frequently share bits and pieces from my wanderings out and about.
I love meeting new people, so feel free to say hi!😊 I might take a little bit to reply because I'm usually a bit behind on a writing deadline but I do my best to get back to everyone.
I live in Maasmechelen (north of #belgium aka #flanders between Genk & Maastricht (NL) with my wife & daughter. I have a daytime job Product Owner in #brussels (government agency) and a nighttime job/ hobby as a #wpo#wordpress plugin developer (#autoptimize). #music lover (jazz, left-of-center pop/ rock), love to ride my #bicycle (folding bike + race bike), I like to read (mostly fiction). play #wordfeud (NL) and learn Spanish (Duolingo)
Hi, I'm Eliot! I program computers for a living, currently working in medtech with a prior stint in the game industry. I still enjoy #GameDev and #CreativeCoding when I can find the time. I'm bi/pan, a Jewish Atheist, and a former film student trained in sound design.
I'm a professional technical #generalist. I write #code, read code, research, discover problems, and develop solutions.
Been in some form of the computer industry starting in 1995. It's what pays the bills: Career trajectory was #dialup ISP #helpdesk ➡️ Corporate IT ➡️ firewall/IDS analyst ➡️ CERT/SOC #Technical#Leader ➡️ Cisco Talos Technical Lead.
Rewriting my #introduction because I didn't get the importance of tagging over here. Apologies if you've seen this before...
I'm retired, which means I'm pretty busy. I volunteer at a charity #bookshop, write occasional reviews for London #Jazz News, write even rarer reviews on my own blog, and take lots of #photographs.
New here and interested in new free #music? On @clongclongmoo you can find almost daily tips for new free releases from very different genres and styles from all over the world. Almost all of them are offered under a #CreativeCommons license.
New #Introduction - I'm Alex, a Gen X British Asian who lives in a suburb of #Ipswich#Suffolk#England near the border with #Essex - my day job is IT and electronics engineer in health/social care, hobbies/interests are #radio (broadcasting and communications/ham - I volunteer at the local community radio station, #photography, #nature, European #music, #transport, #infrastructure and affordable European/Asian #cars (but I am not a petrolhead and appreciate the environmental impact of cars) >>
I started uploading some old #breakcore#gabber and #jungle dj/live-sets/-mixes to archive.org because they are no use just sitting here on my HD.
Mostly stuff I downloaded from various sources around 2005-11 for now, from Bong-Ra, Enduser, Shitmat, C64, Venetian Snares etc. Good times for some hash amen choppage #breakcore. More to come in the future.
Re-doing my #introduction now since I'm trying to be here a bit more ...
G'day I'm Nick, from the NE suburbs of #Melbourne , Australia.
I work as an #opensource#developer (mostly #python) doing remote work for various clients, and I'm also interested in #retrocomputing or, as I like to call it, computers back when I was a kid.
I'm into #cycling (slowly) and working up to doing some #cycletouring miles around Victoria this summer, and eventually elsewhere in the world.
I'm into #music generally and I'm (also slowly) learning to play #ukulele and learning a bit of music theory along the way.
I'm also doing some set design & construction for a #musicaltheatre group my daughters & their friends all seem to be in!
I'll probably be posting about those things more than work, tbqh. Older stuff, mostly tech-related, is on my blog at https://nick.zoic.org/
A re- #introduction in light of the influx of new folks:
I'm James, a software engineer and former CTO, now Research Engineering Manager at Thomson Reuters.
I've have a PhD in #ML and Natural Language Processing which is about building #NLP tools that analyse how scientific work impacts society for great good.
I'm Kevin, diyelectromusic in most places. I do MIDI and microcontroller based making, often reinventing wheels just to learn how it is done and writing it all up on my "Simple DIY Electronic Music Projects" blog trying to link music and STE(A)M: https://diyelectromusic.wordpress.com/
#introduction For more about me see my profile and its "about" section. Briefly, I am retired MD who cares deeply about #progressive#politics and avoiding autocracy/fascism. We have solutions (eg, #MedicareForAll), but are hindered by political cowards, deeply flawed system of #USgovernment, & severe misunderstanding about sovereign fiat money (debt/deficit). Hope to see more #MMT and heterodox #economics here soon. #Coding is a hobby. I love a wide variety of #music spanning decades.
I've spent 30 years using, adminning, integrating and supporting in-house and random other software running on #linux and a bunch of Uni[xc]es, but now I'm hands-off during the day and work as an IT manager and advice-giver.
I'm into long walks, long drone-like #music, and #film#photography (all of which kinda go together well).
I'm into #selfhosting and have done that forever, too - I'm fond of keeping the Internet decentralized.
Not new here but it might be time for a re-#introduction:
Hi, I'm Eliot! I program computers for a living, currently working in medtech with a prior stint in the game industry. I still enjoy #gamedev and #creativecoding when I can find the time. I'm pan, a Jewish Atheist, and a former film student trained in sound design.
Hi, I'm Sam! I taught myself #programming in the '80s on a Commodore 64 and an IBM PC XT with QBasic. Now I'm a software developer at IRCCloud, building #Android and #iOS apps in #java and #ObjectiveC. Previously I worked on #music streaming apps at Last.fm.
I'm a computer musician making: ⇒ various forms of electro-funk and bass #music ⇒ ambiental drone, noise and sonic experiments ⇒ expanded cinema & #video projects
Hi folks, I'm trying moving to aus.social because a) I'm curious, b) Straya. I've run a couple of "tilde"-like services over the years, and there's something in that #SmallWeb world that I miss nowadays and hope to somehow find a way of sustainably recovering as a way to escape from my daily grind. I once helped some people start a #Linux User Group back in the days when we all wore onions on our belts. I love long, aimless #walks where I can listen to #music and practice my #photography skills.
The torrent for the final PDF and all the source/assets files of FLOSS+Art (2008), an edited collection of texts about Free/Libre Open Source Software (#FLOSS) and #art#music and #design , is once again seeded!
Big thanks to @hellocatfood@mastodon.social who motivated me to do so :)
