A little flash fiction I wrote for Microcosm :) I had a lot of fun with this.

New NIOO publication: #Stressors in a bottle: A #microcosm study on #phytoplankton assemblage response to extreme #precipitation events under climate warming.

I modeled and printed a little console rack for my #cre8audio #EastBeast #synth and my #HologramElectronics #microcosm to live together in beautiful efficient workflow.

If you’re curious about the noise it makes: https://youtu.be/dbM9ES4oahc

Some bonkers #hologram circuits just landed on the signal chain as well. Brace for some more lush #space #noise jams in the very near future. - #microcosm #synth #pedal

This photo of a singularity/black hole.... it looks like a beautiful and colourful iris with a pupil.

One of the things I like here on Mastodon - my attention is regularly drawn to the small things. Beetles, moss and lichen, fossils, shells and stones, microphotography, roots, insects, fungi, weather... At first it seemed a bit odd to me, but in the meantime it changed my way of walking and watching the natural world around me a lot. I never was a science expert, so - thanks to everyone contributing to the "small worlds"!

I don't usually read business books, and it's been years since one even caught my attention, but I've been a fan of #Microcosm for years, and Biel's pragmatic approach to publishing is very much in line with my own, so this was a validating and insightful read for me. Harper's contributions were more limited than I expected, but she added useful context a few times, too. 👍🏽👍🏽

In which I join Joe Biel and Elly Blue on the #Microcosm podcast again, this time talking about libraries, why they're so important (yet consistently misunderstood), and how publishers can be better partners with them.

As someone who got into #fermentation recently, I really enjoyed the video "How Does Yeast Make Bread?" from "Journey to the Microcosms":
https://youtu.be/bS8TpHCK2cU
Personally I only used yeast (S. Cerivisae) for #brewing, didn't #baking bread yet due to lack of an oven but someday would love to tr y a sourdough, maybe I'll just start with flatbread

Speaking of tsundoku, a Kickstarter mail call via one of my favorite publishers, #Microcosm!

I had the pleasure of joining #Microcosm's excellent podcast recently, and the first episode went live today. We talk about my unusual career path in publishing, how it influenced my perspective on and approach to the industry, and why I can’t quit it.

That conversation unexpectedly made me think about, and remember somewhat fondly, my time in the Army — two things that don’t happen very often.

Check it out!

JAMuary 2023 No.22: Ethereal Horizon
https://youtu.be/1poHgKlI8-4

An ambient chill out jam again today. Used the Polyend Tracker again to sequence the Mother 32 (overkill I know). Still working on trying to make consonant sounds with the Subharmonicon. DFAM for percussion, OP-1's tombola sequencer and the Microcosm for extra shimmer

#JAMuary2023 No.21: On Air

Yesterdays #jamuary - Starting to enjoy working with the #moog sound studio. Has been a long time coming but this is in part down to my lack of effort out in. They need perseverance but I feel they are starting to reward.

#PolyendTracker is proving a beat and is sequencing the #Mother32 which is clocking the #Subharmonicon. Lead part courtesy of the #OP-1 Field then added some percussion from #DFAM and effects courtesy of #Microcosm.

Years ago, I frowned at established publishers using Kickstarter to get projects off the ground, but having been burned too often by overly ambitious creators delivering underwhelming projects super late or not at all, they're pretty much the only ones I'll back now — as long as they're treating them as pre-orders, with or w/o perks.

I trust #Microcosm to deliver and have been curious about their Unf*ck Your... series, so I happily backed this one. 👍🏽
