She looks so much like Hedy. Except for being twice as big…

One of my all time faves. I can’t refund the video I linked to, which is a shame. It had a camera right over his shoulder which was amazing to watch.

I wonder if skipping words like “been” is also a sign of genius? 🤷‍♂️

The links are dead, but I wrote something very similar here (though I never seemed to turn my innovation mob into Hersh fans…):

Culture Provides the Beat for Your Organisation

Kristin Hersh's two bands sound very different. Why? Because they have two different drummers. Culture plays that role in organisations. An idea that works great in one culture may fail miserably in ...

We must have some kind of unrecognised geniuses!

Tim Kastelle @timkastelle.bsky.social · May 17

True. And I grabbed Double Nickels next.

Tim Kastelle @timkastelle.bsky.social · May 17

Touché!

First time I ever heard this version was when some guy played it on the bachelor/ette party radio show the night before my wedding…

The day I bought I purchased two double LPs. The second was, ummm, Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

This led me through an incoherent set of steps that ended at: did any band ever do a worse (better?) job of predicting algorithmic search than Christmas?

Tim Kastelle @timkastelle.bsky.social · May 17

A song that could trigger a set of steps that culminates in moving to Australia…

Tim Kastelle @timkastelle.bsky.social · May 17

Epic song. 50 Foot Wave might be my favourite Kristin Hersh project, which is saying something.

I’m still getting them Andrew!

This is an important book that you should probably read.

It's pub day for The Pacific Circuit, my book. For Bluesky, I wanted to lay out some of the arguments in the book, and what they might say about the present moment of trade war and technological development. So, let's start with: what is the Pacific Circuit?

BIG THREAD (sorry)

Tim Kastelle @timkastelle.bsky.social · May 7

That sounds like the right choice! It’s hard for me to do that too, though.

Tim Kastelle @timkastelle.bsky.social · May 7

It’s probably a moot point by now, but that book should be dropped! An additional problem with books like that is that I read them more slowly than usual, so not only am I stuck in a bad book, but it takes me longer than usual to get to the next better book.

Tim Kastelle @timkastelle.bsky.social · Apr 23

I drop a lot (or at least pause them) <40 pages in, but if I go past that, I really struggle to stop, even if they’re bad…

Tim Kastelle @timkastelle.bsky.social · Apr 17

This is very excellent.

Of all the tech and design thinkers we've had so far, Ursula Franklin is maybe the closest to my heart. Going back to the wellspring for this one.

Ursula Franklin is one of my all-time favorite thinkers about both the obvious and obscured parts of our technological world.

Or even if you see “this”! 🙄

If you see thus, post a fictional band that you would love to see live.

we're thrilled to share that we've started the year with a new addition to our team! he's extremely smart, capable, charming, persuasive, and boasts a wealth of museum experience

“…it’s hard to build mechanisms to support stewardship based on “proof of regeneration”—but that’s what the Regen Network is working towards building.”

Goes from the wood wide web to DAOs in a discussion in a fascinating conversation.
