Good morning #FediBookFair 🌞
I've been so consumed by playing journaling games, and making and publishing them, and writing about them as zines.
The Ink That Bleeds is a how-to zine about playing them immersively. You can read an excerpt here at the Indie Game Reading Club Blog:
indiegamereadingclub.com/indie…
It's about a way of writing that aids immersion when you play.
You can get a copy here:
I send everything myself as stamped letter mail.
...you the motives of your unconscious mind when you play. If you're curious about journaling games, I don't think you'll be disappointed with it. It's not like any other games writing you've read.
Inscapes is my recent sequel to The Ink That Bleeds. It's about the metaphysics of what happens when you play. It's about how the worlds you make when you play make you who you are outside the games. It's written just like The Ink That Bleeds, with examples from my own play.

Today in Labor History Nov 2, 1956: Israel invaded Egypt, followed by Britain and France, during the Suez Crisis. The goal was to regain control of the economically important Suez Canal by western powers, and to overthrow Egyptian leader Nassar, who had nationalized the canal. During the crisis, Israel occupied the Gaza Strip. The conflict resulted in 172 Israeli deaths and up to 4,000 Arab deaths, including 1,000 civilians.

You should think over the situation before 1948.
There was no "Palestine", there was a mandated territory. Inhabited by arabs, druze, jews et al.
The rest could be seen as the terroble outcome from an also terrible politics if Arabian nationalists.
I’m surprised it’s taken this long for Amy Hood to get her flowers from the @wsj.
There are three pillars of Microsoft’s post-Ballmer success. Satya on culture & product, Brad Smith on government lobbying and legal issues and Amy Hood ensuring you feed the winners and starve the losers when it comes to spending.
In the age of efficiency (cost cutting) and massive spending on AI, I guess the CFOs are the new tech celebrities.

Amy Hood is a great example of the difference between “Founder Mode” and “Manager Mode”. At a founder-led company, you often just need to get the founder excited about a space or feel threathened that the company will be left behind to spur investment.
At Microsoft, Amy regularly pours cold water on ideas because the math on the financial ROI doesn’t work. This was a big difference from the Ballmer era where FOMO driven investments were common.

"We're Not Talking" by Lime Bar
Refining the new process and just having fun... this is one of my favs. Tracks that progressively fall apart. Lets pretentiously call it einstürzende neue musik. The incipient #bonk is strong in this one.

"Lime Bar Vs Flock Of Nazguls" by Lime Bar
A new thing! @flockofnazguls is doing sound design DAILY on twitch. Go check it out. All under CC license. I very mindfully asked if I could "have at" the material, and they said an enthusiastic yes. So began a new project. This is A/V hackery and fuckery. And these type of projects are the most fun.

"Lime Bar Vs attks th drknss" by Lime Bar
Giddy from the fun of the previous release I realized @attksthdrknss also releases in CC mode. Again using some or all of the past processes... but learning that the source material really does guide and inform the outcome. A true melding occurs. Kind of amazing, really. The dialectic in musical form? Yes

"Airfield" by Lime Bar
...and then it was #Jamuary 2024. I got a late start. Starting with yet another new set of tools and wanting to learn them, I just leapt in. The "a-side" sound and esp. video I love. The "b-side" went into the deep public domain past and sizzled it up with tb-303 like synth. I am proud of this one too. Clean AND noisy.

"Walking Spirals" by Lime Bar
It is properly freezing here in Jan and you just don't go out. These are the result of cabin fever and the desire to just moooove around, ffs.

"No Fun" by Lime Bar
The main track was more cabin fever. The b-side got nerdy. Inspiration struck -- could I make music some nothing? Using only a single effects plugin and no midi or audio, the answer is yes. Oscillators and noise generators and shaping... but #modular folks knew this already.

"Sunday Silence" by Lime Bar
As #Jamuary progressed I wanted to try something different. Both tracks are arranged in three major parts. Both are dreamscapes of very different dreams. Sort of the opposite of tracks that fall apart, I guess? Can something formless coalesce and take shape? Of course it can, but can I do it? Yes, it turns out.

"STS-107" by Lime Bar
I confess I was not thinking about the Space Shuttle disaster when I made this. But sometimes things come together, unbidden. And you just let them do it. The second track came on a listless day and it captures the trance-y hypnotic spell I was under. Stir crazy but tired.

"Vowhales" by Lime Bar
An audio pun. I wanted to use a vocal synth and used vowels as a placeholder for lyrics... they stuck. After pushing this mass around a bit, it started to sound like whale song to me (but nobody else, apparently) hence the name. I did't expect this to be one of my most popular tracks but it is. For a given value of "popular"

"Deep Dive" by Lime Bar
I submitted the main track for DEF CON soundtrack and got on the expansion pack which is nice. The best thing about being on that soundtrack it that I gained 0 additional listens or followers as a result. 😂
The second track is me panicking deep into #jamuary with no more ideas and trying to make NewOrder. You decide.

"BreatheInBreatheOut" by Lime Bar
I don't know why or what but it had been a stressful day. And making this helped. I guess it worked because I only remember there was stress but not what that stress was about. Maybe it'll help you too.

Woke up, chose violence. Using @yonder 's fun image to midi tool to seed this track from a randomly generated pretty pink 10print maze image. Then I started making choices and this is the aggressive result. (You can still hear the pretty if you try tho...)

"Lime Bar Vs Fugue State Audio" by Lime Bar
Oh look! @fstateaudio also releases some material under CC license. This one was fun and honestly needs vocals. One main difference on this Vs project is ... Fugue State is rich with transients. This flowed so easily as a result. I need to pick this up and do more. The video sources are great, see video

"Lime Bar Vs AxWax" by Lime Bar
Oh look! @axwax also also releases some material under CC license. Also fun to make, and also made easier by an abundance of transients into which hooks can be made. I need to flesh out this project more as well. (Doing this thread is reminding me how fun these are to make).

"Lime Bar attks th Flock of Fugue Axes #1" by Lime Bar
The #bonkwave vol 3 compilation was announced and drunk from the other recent Vs projects I thought "what if I mashed up all 4 artists and put my spin on things?" And it worked. It was really hard but really fun and I am really proud of the result! The beautiful cover art by @dillyd was just another way to collab. Thx all!
He may not have been in the best movies, but across the 8 of them (and the cameos in others), the scene in the last movie where he rescues Zendaya is the one that hits hardest for me. Even moreso than the dusting.
And all done with very little dialogue. Just emotion.
Each of them made the role their own, in their own way.
