Hello world - I've just joined and trying to find friends. I'm an #artist generally working between #communityart and #soundart. I'm into #feminism and experimenting with the #creative possibilities of #hamradio. I'm also a #PhD student studying #listening. Please say hello if our interests overlap! :)
#FirstThoughs are the everyday thoughts. Everyone has those. #SecondThoughts are the thoughts you think about the way you think. People who enjoy thinking have those. #ThirdThoughts are thoughts that watch the world and think all by themselves. They’re rare, and often troublesome. #Listening to them is part of #witchcraft
As Substack's Storytelling Lead, Hannah Ray sets out to find and elevate amazing writers, especially the ones who might not naturally toot their own horns. How does she do it?
Find out on the latest episode of "The Art of Curation," a podcast for @Flipboard about the role of human taste in a tech-driven world. Thanks for #listening!
Yesterday I was #listening to a live performance by Chroma, an indie pop band from Cmyru. Great energy and some catchy songs.
The music video to their single I Don't Wanna Go Out illustrates the pressure indie artists are under to increase their "engagement" on DataFarming platforms;
you know what I love about death #metal? Besides the urgency of metal music, I love that this #music is made by people who are not afraid to think and talk about #death. Those who think about #life cannot neglect death.
I am pleased to announce the arrival of a new #RPlayer on the #IPFS network!
For today's #ThankYouTuesday, I want to thank the people who still know how to listen to others. Those who don't always put themselves at the center of the universe, but can also understand others. Those who strive to be well and make others well, not constantly fighting to prevail, dominate, outdo, or crush.
My gratitude today goes to these increasingly rare individuals.
Wikipedia notes that a rough English translation of the album name is; Watch out! The tram is coming. In other trivia, indie nerds who specialise in the 1990s might notice that the band name is taken from a song title off Now I'm a Cowboy, by British band The Auteurs.
A few months ago I went to a women's conference. The music was too loud. I sustained damage to my ears. Hearing loss and fullness that lasted for 2 weeks. I got a miracle! Fully recovered with no more loss!
This is a sketch from my journal while I was waiting for my prayers to be answered.
#today I listened to Salt 'N' Pepa for the first time in years. I used to love them back in the day and when I had a black mini, the Black's Magic album was often in the tape deck.
I love their songs great booming kick drums (808 surely?) and the kicks rhythms are great.
"If I had a wish before I die, I'd like to have it like this for he rest of my life" is a classic lyric.
