Okay, the limitation explains it a bit. I once bought a wonky piece of software by Wolfgang. I guess that’s the only contribution I´ll ever made to his pension.

Yeah, I still can't figure out why the price is so high - especially since they're backed by Native Instruments. I get that it's boutique... but 10k?

The image shows a vintage-style PPG 1002 synthesizer. It's a rectangular panel filled with black knobs, switches, and silver jacks arranged in columns. The casing is black with metallic silver edges, and the logo “PPG SYNTHESIZER 1002” appears on the upper right.

So stoked to see the venerable PPG logo on a new instrument. Quite pricey though.

A black-and-white image shows a peaceful seascape under a dramatic sky. Thick, billowing clouds stretch across the scene, while soft light reflects off the calm water. Tall grasses sway gently in the foreground, silhouetted against the shimmering surface. Distant hills rest quietly on the horizon.

"In the theater of nature, peaceful moments often reveal hints of sublime unrest."

One of my most treasured moments.

A church facade is illuminated with a vibrant video mapping projection. The artwork features bold colors like pink, blue, and yellow, with surreal imagery, including a central figure with an animal-like face, geometric shapes, and floating objects. The night sky enhances the glowing effect.

Your work showcases an exceptional eye for beauty and expression. The dramatic contrast and lighting, your way of crafting moods and stories with light, revealing true artistic vision! Rarely am I equally moved by the message of an image and impressed by its technique.

I discovered him maybe about a year ago on YT. I love the format he's doing now with the improvisations. I also find the look of the videos very appealing.

You're hitting a sore spot there. I practically lost thousands of photos when both my storage system and backup failed within a few days. Maybe some can be recovered through data forensics, but to see my photographic evolution, I only have a few hundred photos that ended up in my cloud.

It looks great! I still love my D5100, but about four years ago, I decided to get a new camera. I spent weeks researching what would suit me best and compared models from Nikon, Canon, Sony, and Olympus before finally choosing a Fujifilm X-T4.

Thank you. I know exactly what you mean!

Absolute stunning work you are showing here.

This black-and-white photo shows a decayed urban scene under a dark, crumbling overpass. The ground is rough, with scattered debris. On the left, a stone wall runs alongside, while a rusted metal fence lines the right. A worn staircase, partly covered in weeds, leads upward to an open, brighter space. In the background, industrial structures with pipes and railings loom. The mood is eerie, abandoned, and mysterious.

Decay is just time making itself visible.

About eight years ago, my photographic journey began with a humble Nikon D5100. This image was one of the first I took with it.

Vance floats US troop withdrawal from Germany over free-speech concerns The U.S. vice president links continued military support to Berlin’s speech policies.

On the other hand, JD Vance is threatening to withdraw troops from Germany because of its laws against hate speech. The hypocrisy is hardly bearable.

The black-and-white image shows two men sitting in front of a professional audio studio. One wears a cap and glasses, resting his chin on his hand, while the other, in glasses and a hoodie, operates a large mixing console with multiple screens displaying audio waveforms. A studio monitor speaker sits in the background.

So, that's me (on the left) with an Yamaha product specialist. The photo captures the exact moment I’m pondering how to deliver a rhetorical masterpiece to convince my family, friends, and acquaintances to sell their organs - just so I can afford this Nuage system.

I found this photo online of Judas Priest’s Rob Halford & Duran Duran’s Simon Le Bon. I LOVE both groups. It’s funny to think that 40 years ago, fans of each would hate the other’s band - and today their singers pose like besties. There’s a lesson there…

Thanks for sharing!

Gonna be playing a short live set this Sunday at the rather fine Minories in Colchester as part of the EMOM event there. Not sure there is much of an #electronicmusicopenmic community on @bsky.app yet?

This image shows a beautifully arranged collection of vintage synthesizers and drum machines in an elegant room with wooden floors and white walls. Multiple keyboards are stacked on stands, and modular synths sit in the center. The setup has a retro-futuristic aesthetic with a mix of analog and digital gear.

The image is from an old Arturia ad. It reminds me of the synthesizer section at Sound & Drumland Berlin, which sadly no longer exists. Anyway, I love the photo’s aesthetic - it triggers both my GAS and the urge to move.

While I had a fever, I had the idea to sample hits on an aluminum water bottle, split the sound into tonal and noise spectra, and run them in polyrhythmic patterns against each other - reuniting them in the original sound every 7th cycle. Instead, I played guitar for two hours and went back to bed.

I forgot the ALT text; I'll put it in here: The image shows an organized collection of audio recording gear laid out on a black grid-patterned surface. It includes field recorders, microphones, furry windshields, cables, and mallets. A camera and wireless transmitters are also present.

After being confined to my apartment for almost two months due to illness, I can finally go out for sonic foraging. The days are crisp and cold but sunny and dry - perfect for cycling and snapping a few photos while noise hunting.

I'm on all sorts of lists on Bluesky. Usually, I don't care, even if it got me blocked. But what really boils my blood is being linked to MAGA or Trump. Since lists are user tools, why can they be read out via API? As this gets exploited, maybe a better approach is needed? @bsky.app

To be clear:

Ah, I see, thank you. I thought using black and white or sepia would be a bit too on the nose. I also keep black and white images in case the prompt actually comes up.

Does your comment refer to the image or the quote?

This image shows a vast, open landscape under a dramatic, cloud-filled sky. The entire scene has a deep blue monochrome tone, giving it a moody and atmospheric feel. A single, small tree stands alone on the horizon, emphasizing solitude. Rolling hills with scattered bushes and rugged terrain add texture to the scene.

My contribution to the weekly #blueskyartshow theme.

In a world stripped to shades of blue, we see not distraction but essence - the land, the sky, and the quiet in between.
