lol yeah!!!

I saw one here a couple months ago. perhaps the only violent urge I have ever experienced in my life. surely the spinning weak point on the roof is vulnerable to something

this is too personal for the feed

I have a great love and taste for both things but at heart I think I am a "dry+subtle" type, so sometimes when my friends talk about a "better world" I wonder if they're planning to leave me behind when they get there. not that it's all about me!

this wkd: played loud brass music in the street. tonite: went to brutalist city hall to see some v placid, oblique experimental silent film. lot of ppl on this part of the net have been saying our Radical Resistance Art needs to be loud+horny but I wonder if there's still a place for the dry+subtle

jack I started watching it this week

photo of a book in my hand: "Werner Herzog - Every Man For Himself and God Against All - A Memoir"

currently reading

this was so so good the style and the script are really compelling (was a refreshing oasis in the rest of that movie LOL).. really excited to see your next thing

god bless anyone who has actually read all of "the making of americans"! unfathomable

close to the end of this volume.. I don't like her work now as much as I once thought I did. periodic charms, sonorities and compelling puzzles but so much just feels like an exercise. I liked "four saints in three acts" a lot more than "tender buttons" which I was initially pretty excited about

screenshot of the bandcamp app showing albums I have just purchased - Björk - Post - blower - zipmaster - Cecile McLorin Salvant - Oh Snap - crazygoji - lucid dreaming - Elliot Smith - Roman Candle - Alfa Mist - Roulette

it's bandcamp friday!

Bravo! said to congratulate a single male singer Brava! said to congratulate a single female singer Bravi! said to congratulate many singers "Fantastic Job!" Bravissimo! said to a single male singer Bravissima! said to a single female singer Bravissimi! said to many singers

I believe this is what they call an "option select". the strong forms take significantly longer though, risky!

new update to the meta. I knew of "brava" for a woman soloist before, but just now I worked on a tape where a guy called out "bravi" after the dittersdorf viola&bass concertante. apparently that's the right form for groups. so it's about more than just reaction time, you need to know the vocabulary

screenshot of a twitter post from january 7 2024 by @jaxcheese. the post reads "livin in the city" and there are three cropped photos: 1. a small figure of dr. eggman holding an emerald, sitting in a windowsill with a snowy road visible through the window. 2. a desk with a laptop, a stuffed toy of kk slider, and a few other things on it. there are posters of the sonic the hedgehog (mega drive) box art and a work by kandinsky on the wall. 3. a record player sitting on a table beside two crates full of records. small perler bead sculptures of two characters from kero blaster lean against a cd player on the bottom tier of the table

the same windowsill from the other photo. eggman is conspicuously missing and it is dark outside

final goodbye to my home of ~20 months. like me, it was sometimes warm and loud and sometimes cold and quiet, it contained many mysteries, and it occasionally smelled a little funny

you used to be able to call things "rayxanber iii"

'Gunstar Heroes' was released on the SEGA Mega Drive 32 years ago today in Japan.

my ongoing galaxy brain take on this sort of dilemma is still that you absolutely should buy games that you don't like and which are terrible for you and you can't finish. I do this all the time and it's much more horrible and meaningful than "enjoying a game," gross

Tiny frog anniversary, by jaxcheese from the album STAFFcirc vol. 10 - STAFFcirc vol. 1 2

on bandcamp you can also read a pretty long writeup about the song's creation and background sexytoadsandfrogsfriendcircle.bandcamp.com/track/tiny-f... (and check out the rest of the album it's incredible)

without the encouragement of those two and some friends who listened early I probably would not have been brave enough to push this funny little thing over the finish line... thanks everyone and thank you for listening <3

YouTube video by STAFFcirc STAFFcirc vol. 10 - STAFFcirc vol. 1 2 【Full Album】

there's an alternate cut of the video on youtube featuring some really cute paper frogs crafted and filmed by @corneaga.bsky.social youtu.be/beEaIHIavNc

and the terrific master was done by @ilkae.bsky.social with a little assistance from time trials

I wrote and sang a song for the new 10th anniv @staffcirc.bsky.social album!!! it was an honor to celebrate this special occasion with a bunch of musicians I have admired for years... I'm pretty new to this kind of songwriting so you will have to forgive the rough edges (but I plan to do more soon!)

wow first time I've heard about this. interesting stuff

listened to em both the right way today. would it be a blasphemy to say vol 2 > vols 1&2 played simultaneously > vol 1. I might try it again like on purpose

tried listening to aphex twin "selected ambient works" for the first time yesterday and youtube somehow started playing vol 2 at the same time in the same tab and I didn't realize for like 20 minutes. it was kinda hip actually. "wow the asynchronous rhythms seem way ahead of his time" etc

it's Bandcamp Friday! one of the only big events that celebrates paying artists kindly :')

check out my...
