From my mastodon: I have been thinking about this for quite a while, and there is a public part to my process anyhow, so let me start with that public part, and then move it back into my personal notes later: are there any undead websites out there, where hosting/server costs are covered in advance…

Since I got my feed‑server up and running again (which means I also got my feed reader apps pointing to this main hub), I am now tuned back into what the design and art world is doing, above a certain threshold of notability of course (for the cool stuff I still need to dig into…

Where was I? During graphic design study, we had what I thought was a too short semester of video class, as in moving pictures, you know, storyboarding, types of shots and crops, animation in 2d and 3d. And my professor then was really amazed by the show called “Devs”, and how the sfx and computer…

Let us all have our own websites! LuvstarKei talking about how fun it is to have your own website which you can put anything on. I personally believe that what I would call fake professionalism (that’s the one where you pretend to be different from who and how you actually are) will destroy your creativity…

On the topic of music, some years ago, I was listening to Isaac Arthur’s various podcast episodes about science fiction and besides enjoying them, I also noticed certain pieces of music he used in his videos which just sounded right for cosmic exploration, and the awe you feel when looking up. The music he used in those…

The hard problem is about the fact that there seems to be some subjective experience that doesn’t correlate with your ability to respond. Hakwan Lau in an interview with Elliott Ihm about Aphantasia, listen to the timestamped quote here. Since one of my classes during study was psychology of perception, this is worth a note.…

I enjoy the green on black dashboard palette on tumblr a lot, so I decided to give my social wall archive thing a very similar look as well. I hope ASCA likes it. It also feels kind of right for an archive to be some kind of oldschool, webdesign‑wise. Source: My after‑hours blog on Tumblr Code…
