It's time to call it. AI is built on a house of cards of intellectual property violations starting with Facebook which is starting to look a lot like a crime scene as held back discovery documents begin to be compelled and unsealed in court. /1

I was very interested in Nura's headphone tech. I owned a pair of their earbuds (until puppies destroyed them) and tried two of their other headsets. Surprised to find out they were acquired a few years ago "to integrate their personalized audio technology into Denon earbuds and headphones"

Never judge a book by it's cover and all that... This is surprisingly fantastic. I'd probably describe it as 'happy hardcore' - although I suspect the lyrical content isn't too happy. The melodies are whilst still being actually 'heavy' spider-god.bandcamp.com/album/posses...

Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees by @patrickhorvath.bsky.social. Another disturbing gem - vaguely reminiscent of Dexter?

Nameless. One of the more memorable reads from a decade ago c/o Grant Morrison and @theburnham.bsky.social. Time to revisit?

Maia reached out to the World in a teeny but feisty package. St Thomas' Hospital back in 2012. I got very lucky capturing her first moments like this.

I did my best to capture my 2nd child's first moments as well as I did my first. Tilly entered the World stealthfully in the wee hours of a Sunday morning at Kings College Hospital back in 2018

I think countries around the world should levy tariffs specifically on Tesla in response to US tariffs, as well as banning Twitter as a national security threat driving a wedge between our co-dictators may be the most effective thing they can do

18 years ago... Saw this with my buddy, Alex (R.I.P.), who was a huge fan... That album was a grower and a classic. Didn't think they could top Chutes Too Narrow...

A slower piece around my cat purring w/ field recordings around the house on a rainy day; my daughter dragging her feet across wooden slats of a huge swing (Buxted 2022); singing tree frogs (Antigua 2022); metal ruler as bass 'synth'. #Deluge tim-ferguson.bandcamp.com/track/at-a-p...

Another track inspired by my daughter. She makes crazy dolphin-like clicks & pops w/ her mouth. Contact mic field recordings of a wall clock underpins everything w/ sprinkling of nepalese bells and some orchestra multi-samples #Deluge tim-ferguson.bandcamp.com/track/dolpha...

Rhythm inspired by, and built around, some loud speaker electronic interference (Marylebone 2009). 'Melody' from passenger flight field recordings (Singapore 2011). Intro recordings from a trip to 'Suoi Tien' religious theme park (Saigon / Vietnam 2011). tim-ferguson.bandcamp.com/track/birdie...

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

i know i'm talking a LOT about the glories of the 1990s/early 2000s web and YES part of it is nostalgia, but i honestly believe that bringing back human-made blogging and links free from Meta/Twitter can actually contribute to our political and social survival in this new awful era so LET'S DO THIS

I don't recall exactly when I bought my #Deluge from Synthstrom, but it was in the first batch delivered. I had been trying to explore solo music making for over a decade and only had 2 or 3 tracks to show. Within the first year of owning my Deluge I had +10 tracks. It really resonated with me
