I'm back from inner space. I wrote about adding my personal blog as an entity within the fediverse via ActivityPub. It's pretty neat. hammyhavoc.com/setting-up-my… Send me a friend request, fellow geeks, nerds and phreaks! Big thanks to @aaronpk and @akirk. You're both great.

Here's a first look at the excellent new and original 500 series feed-forward compressor from my friend Ted Fletcher. Looking forward to using this on the score for @psychoclast's Manta. tfpro.com/ted-fletchers-new-… #indiedev #gamedev #unity

Anybody else holding a flame for the unrealized dream of the semantic web?

Would be nice for users to set and order preferred methods of consumption per type of media too, and of course also aggregate these in apps. Social media platforms could render these ala Facebook Shop and Instagram Shopping do with data feeds of catalogues.

This would be useful for finding out information like x person in y band also makes music as z, or maybe even makes games or writes books. Discovery is key without needing to trawl through years upon years of blog posts to understand a person or group's creative output.

Could also define a 'preferred' version or location to buy/stream from to support the creator. E.g. new fans might not know about new versions of music from @wheatus or @taylorswift13, and this means no research necessary to support a creator appropriately from day one.

An open web standard similar to RSS for media discovery would be great. E.g. Visit a personal blog, don't know the person is an author/musician/etc, but their '/media' can be parsed and provide a discog and where it is possible to obtain officially, e.g. store, platform, protocol

I've been working hard doing audio on the feature-length Eco Travellers (2021) documentary with the the usual suspects from @SplitAnAtom—@hones93 and @bryandesrosiers. Come on down to @movietowne Guyana, where it is premiering this Nov for Tourism Month! youtube.com/watch?v=L1wpJ1RS…

I did a fairly lighthearted, breezy interview with Germany's @TechBehemoths. Thanks for having me! techbehemoths.com/blog/inter…
