One week of living mostly Creative Commons: Day 6 and conclusion
I’m going to recap yesterday and today’s Creative Commons living, and recap the experiment as a whole, but first a little tangent: It’s fitting that today’s excursion at the Salvation Army netted me The Pet Shop Boys singles anthology. The Pet Shop Boys are one of my guilty pleasures as I like their music but… Read more: One week of living mostly Creative Commons: Day 6 and conclusion Read More »
One week of living mostly Creative Commons: Day 4/5
Yesterday I listened to more electronic music like the Syntension Alpha / Beta albums, along with other Synthematika artists. Today saw more post-rock bands like Black Market Serotonin, Carthasy, Amity in Fame’s Dinner for One, and I:Scintilla’s Optics album.Complete listing as always is available on my Last.fm page. Yesterday I was also working through the… Read more: One week of living mostly Creative Commons: Day 4/5 Read More »
One week of living mostly Creative Commons: Day 3
Most of the morning’s listening was back to the Jameno streams. I’d really like to find some different CC-only electronic music streams for the daily-programming-grind, but unfortunately I’ve not been able to find anything as high quality as Jamendo, nor as consistently available as Jamendo. Perhaps this is an opportunity for someone. I’d really like… Read more: One week of living mostly Creative Commons: Day 3 Read More »
One week of living mostly Creative Commons: Day 2
Today I tried listening to some of the Jamendo streams instead of my usual Soma.FM Defcon Radio stream. I listened to the Metal and Electronic music stations for a bit until I started hearing repeats and then moved to my normal music collection. For most of the day I listened to Cloudkicker’s Beacons / Let… Read more: One week of living mostly Creative Commons: Day 2 Read More »
One week of living mostly Creative Commons: Follow along at home
If you can’t possibly live without knowing what I’m listening to on a moment-by-moment basis then slide your mouse over to my Last.fm profile where you can see the tracks I’m listening to being scrobbled in practically real-time from my Logitech Squeezebox server.

One week of living mostly Creative Commons: Day 1
Yesterday I deleted all of the non-CC music from my phone and added a few CC artists. Currently I have Dopestars Inc. Bounte, Professor Kliq, Machina, Toumai, OYABUN, Hela, Goliat / Dead in Montana, elevii, Santo Rostro, Lowshake, Leka, Project Roenwolfe, and Risha. I’ve played most if not all of these bands on my various podcasts… Read more: One week of living mostly Creative Commons: Day 1 Read More »
One week of living mostly Creative Commons
OK, here’s another one of my hair-brained, crazy little ideas that I’ve had that I’ll need your support to make work. Well, this is the second of them. The first one I’ll start posting about once I have a little more under my belt, but bear with me. So I run this podcast that you… Read more: One week of living mostly Creative Commons Read More »
The length of how much I couldn’t care less about football
If you wanted to measure how much I couldn’t care less about Football (college or otherwise) do this simple mental exercise: Take all of the stadiums ever built (past, present and soon to be built) and lay them end-to-end. Then take every player ever to don a uniform or soon to don the uniform and… Read more: The length of how much I couldn’t care less about football Read More »
Every chip has a story
Every chip bag has a story. Whether it’s to tell you about how the founders sold chips out of their 1967 Dodge Dart, or how they’ve sourced only the finest ingredients for their chips, you’ll sit there with a feel-good attitude about whatever snack you’re putting inside your chip-hole. At Craig’s Chip Company we have… Read more: Every chip has a story Read More »
Next Meeting – November 2013 MUG Meeting
We meet at 6:30pm on the second Tuesday of each month at the Farmington Community Library. OpenBSD OpenBSD is known for incredible security, but that’s not what it’s really about and that’s not what the project exists for. Lucas will present on OpenBSD’s history, its technology, and what drives the community. You’ll learn not only what makes OpenBSD unique, but why you should keep an eye on it even if you would never dream of switching away from your current … Read More »
