    CEO of AI Music Company Says People Don’t Like Making Music https://www.404media.co/ceo-of-ai-music-company-says-people-dont-like-making-music/ 🙃
  2. Beautiful guys.
  3. Adding Magnum photographer Constantine Manos, who also passed away about a week ago. https://www.magnumphotos.com/newsroom/remembering-constantine-manos-1934-2025/
  4. Went to the Battle of the Bulge 60th anniversary exhibit at the [next to NASA Ames] Moffett Field Museum. That tree stump doesn’t stand a chance.
  5. #1 reason to consider buying any Blu-ray player - the oldest film currently streaming on Netflix is The Sting from 1973! That's like yesterday!
  6. Hope it was a great one.
  7. For those without AppleTV+, it’s free this weekend (1/3-5). Time to watch Slow Horses. https://www.apple.com/tv-pr/news/2024/12/get-a-free-all-access-pass-to-apple-tv-the-first-weekend-of-2025/
  8. You and I are a lot alike on the reflection front. What's the old quote I can never find a record of? "We live just long enough to doubt everything we believed in" (or something similar)? Anyway, within photography, and I know not everyone agrees, gear got good enough at least a decade ago (and probably much longer - four decades?) and common big photographic questions answered (at least in pursuit of realism?), so whatever constitutes image making now seems at least partially tied with experimentation and alternative views, no? I mean is a mouth camera much crazier than the fact that the mouth camera is a film pinhole camera in 2024? Anyway, looking forward to other orifices in 2025. 🫠

    Vinyl-focused listening bars inspired by ones in Japan are opening across New York, attracting audiophiles and city dwellers looking for a respite from the cacophony outside their doors. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/30/style/vinyl-listening-bars.html?unlocked_article_code=1.mE4.DoPV.rDeIpFwipn7h&smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare&tgrp=on.

  10. I dunno. Maybe. Maybe, even likely, but she's an artist across media for almost 40 years. This is another one focused on image-making and even on the narrow photography front going from EVF to eye contact OVF or waist-level can have impact, why not experiment elsewhere and stare in each other's eyes? I think of Errol Morris' contraptions to do the opposite. Again, this may be all be for attention and notoriety, but there's a decent chance it may not. And I kind of like aiming for relevance. 😉
  11. Whatever your current mood hope you have a decent New Year’s Eve and Day.

    Betelgeuse

    It’s because of the damn movie, right?
  22. Different drivers, different housing, and different pads? Never affected the sound of a Grado before. 🙃
  23. Apple gave Hysterical their podcast of the year award. It’s pretty good. ‘Hysterical is a podcast about a mysterious illness that affects a group of high school girls in LeRoy, New York in 2011. The podcast explores the cause of the girls' sudden and violent symptoms, and whether it was something in the water, inside the school, or "all in their head".’ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hysterical/id1753789609
