Hi, I’m Shannon (he/they) a former artist/academic/curator whose work often explored experimental audio and remix culture. In 2013 I relocated to a forest on Gumbaynggirr land, where I now focus on being a parent, while also doing private research into culture, consciousness, technology and markets.

I know it's hard for people who never heard The Hum to understand what we Pylon People were about. Transmission towers were our temporary temples. The wires charted the electric ley of the land. We marched under them and heard wonders. – Signal-catcher Rose, ex-Pylon Person #VOH

Hi-viz over camo to distinguish between state violence forces feels like the ultimate expression of context collapse, of the separation of use/practice from signification/meaning, of the nullification of symbolic efficacy and total absence/impossibility of shared or intuitive interpretation
Now the actual military has to dress like it’s not the military cuz federal law enforcement agencies dress too much like the military

MacOS Sequoia borked SMB connections to Synology. This is a problem if, like me, you use a NAS as storage for a Mac mini Plex server.

Best fix I've found is to replace the nsmb.conf file with this one that was posted on the Plex forums.

#TIL that Glucojel jelly beans are made by the Pharmacy Guild of Australia, which is why they’re commonly found at chemists’ checkouts.

Like M&Ms, the jelly beans all have characters, but unlike M&Ms, they even have names, such as Visionary Violet and Yousuf Yellow.

it’s time to burn the incense,
it’s time to slay the sheep,
it’s time to wake the muppets,
from a thousand years of sleep.

it’s time to raze existence,
it’s time to banish light,
it’s time to call the void in,
on the muppet show tonight.
