Heute ist ein Tag, um #StrategiesAgainstAlgorithms von @stephan zu hören und irgendwohin wegträumdriften und dann könnte ich wieder ins Bett, zum Frühstücken und für den ganzen Rest. Von vorne Anfangen mit dem Tag. Leben und so.

Ich dachte, ich schreibe vielleicht irgendwas zu diesem Wahlergebnis…
…aber ich hab' ja alles schon gesagt.
Gesungen sogar.
One of the best features of the TG77…
We're now halfway to the #strategiesagainstalgorithms deadline.
I wanted to write a big post about your wonderful artworks and my experiences with the project so far… but Buba's passing has left me unable to do so, at least for the time being.
So all I can say is (again) thank you all for participating. You made me realize that I don't need to get interviewed by BBC6 or whoever to enjoy making music. A simple "your song moved me so" once in a while is more than enough.

Thank you all for your kind words and thoughts and your understanding.
We're trying to somehow move on and distract ourselves but it's difficult.
Today we packaged and sent out the next batch of #strategiesagainstalgorithms
I recorded three songs on it ("Trendula", "Niar" and "The Artist In The Vineyard") while staying with Buba in our friends' cabin at the foot of the Reinhardswald forest. Now I'll treasure those times and those tracks even more.
(that said… I realize that #strategiesagainstalgorithms could also be seen as marketing campaign in the end. It was never meant as one, but of course it created a lot of interest by sheer virtue of being different and being against the status quo. In the long run, that's not sustainable and it's certainly not what I intended, although of course I don't complain about the attention…)
The more feedback I receive on #strategiesagainstalgorithms and the more messages like this deeply move me, the more I am reinforced in my conviction that there should be a platform where people are encouraged to exchange and discover #art – without having to beg and scream and shout and produce flashy videos and be louder than the others (cf. https://schallundstille.de/2025/04/24/what-is-fair/)
No, the Fediverse is not that platform, and neither are the bc alternatives such as #mirlo and #jamcoop
But there *is* a need.
The making of "Trendula" @ Reinhardswald, July 2024
everything that's going on
everything that's come and gone
everything that's on the news
the only side that's left to choose
every vote that elon bought
every truth you never sought
every profit soaked in blood
every village drowned in flood
take it away
take it away

I'm listening to my copy of #StrategiesAgainstAlgorithms for the first time! I'm three songs in and it as already brilliant. Thanks, @stephan !!
