Yesterday was epic - was not expecting the Scots to beat the English in the Calcutta Cup - the energy in the city afterwards was electric - which of course has resulted in my thoughts this morning being less than coherent - but hey - you don't need clarity when you're basking in the glory of a rare win!
I just can't do it. I work with music - I describe it often - I probably use this word several times a week and I'm 57 - but I still can't fucking spell rhythm without having to use spellcheck! Gaaaaaaaarrgghh...
Always thought INX’s Mystify was a great sounding song - yet today I’ve been swapping mystify for synthesize in the chorus - and I’m not sure how I feel about it. It’s like combining two things that shouldn’t work and yet - together - they create something more complex and - yeah - weird.
I don't know - I feel fairly ambiguous about AI generated music - some of it's pretty dope but for most it's novelty - which is cool - but after that initial context wears off - where do we go? I'm hoping that it drives real innovation in what music is - that would be cool - but rehashed versions of hyper personalization will get old pretty quickly
It’s amazing how much more resilient I am to overwhelm after a good night’s sleep - particularly Monday morning - I’ve spent a lifetime struggling with the Sunday scaries - but today - today I feel good.
Now that I live in a city that has “real” winter weather and outdoors activities, I find the ubiquitous adoption of Arc’teryx jackets by tech bros on the west coast - even more suss - it’s like “you know you don’t need that in LA, right?!”
My grasp of the whole trading aspect of crypto is tenuous to say the least. Yet apps like word a day from @adrienne give me hope for an onchain future that isn’t just gambling.
One of the challenges in this divided political environment is the loss of nuance. Leaders attempt to distill positions into binaries and yet the human condition is never that simple. Moving away from closed questioning to a more curious approach of open questioning is going to reveal far more things we have in common than the narrow defining of what divides us.
have just managed to place Green Day after Sufjan Stevens in a collaborative playlist and I'm so insanely pleased about the transition that I had to share with the world!
Alright - fuck it - gonna re-commit to Farcaster ;-p. miniapps may indeed be the future - who knows - what I do know is that I've met many lovely people here through the music channel and of course lots of great music. So will be looking to cross pollinate from the musicto community in here and just - share the music and the love. I'm a fan of music in the park - Daft Punk but with Jazz musician - why not ;-p

Thought this was great - slightly terrifying (and not a loop I'd like to be stuck in) but really enjoyed the animation style and the shoegaze rock vibe that goes with it: https://youtu.be/FoiE_nfHENw?si=CAHvtlKvmSq_vS4U
I just minted a petlet. My Warplet now carries a small and reassuring best friend. It contains a bit of my Farcaster best friend's DNA: @ghostlinkz.eth@janicka
Mint yours now!
