Pattern Theory #0
An extended improvisation, mind and hands cooperating in a patterned exploration. I like this one. I don't think it's about anything, it just is. The day's offering.
Went to see a friend play in one of the three bands she is in, at the Dublin Castle which is confusingly in Camden in London.
Supported by "The Mulholland Drivers" a David Lynch inspired band. He had a clipping microphone that sounded like a telephone and she had a 40s looking mic. They were pretty and entertaining.
My friend's band was "In Sect", and they were also very entertaining. The lead singer guy has torches strapped to his wrist that shine on his face when he double-grips the microphone. Particularly handy when he strays from the stage to sing their metal tunes right in people's faces, taking his hand-held torch too.
I like that. Pretty similar to the way I used to record the selfie-videos as I stalked the audience for those up for games and double-shots. Got me right in the eye with that torch at one point though.
Might think about personally-held lights more in the solo show if I ever do that again.
The bar has these weird upside down beer-taps. You order a drink, and they put the glass on top of the tap and press a button then the glass fills up from the bottom-up.
Turns out this is a glass (well, plastic) with a hole in the bottom and a magnetic disc/stopper that prevents the drink from slooshing through the hole in the base.
I did enjoy tentatively fingering the bottom of my glass, letting it get a little wet, risking the full splosh.
Those bar-taps/glasses are well weird.
There was a final band, and they were also good and metal but I dunno what they were called and I left after a couple of songs.
Metcheck reckoned maybe a 70% chance of 0.2mm of rain on the way home so I risked the no-umbrella thing.
The weathermen have been flat out LYING this summer. I have been rained on more than any other summer before. It's been torrential. Including tonight. Weather like Americans expect England to be. The skys opened, and I am drenched.
This week, a garage owner told my fiance she should get rid of me, and I went fishing for some keys!

An old prediction in my (6/2016):
In the future, doctors won't need offices, law won't need courtrooms. That feedback loop will affect architecture itself as it adapts to the world inside computers, with disinvestment in the built environment.
What might be interesting, and is happening more and more is that data becomes the main material like paint. We visualize (paint) our experiences.
The perspective is refreshing the attitude is always positive and passionate. This diary encourages the author and the reader to come to terms with the age that's coming. The Navel Diaries: How I Lost My Belly Button and Found Myself by Diann Logan.

Today's another Meta Monday
(I'm glad it's not Sunday)
It's my off-the-cuff fun day
Welcome to my Meta Monday
A Small Journey
A gentle barefoot wander through the grass, the day's improvisation.
Hey, do my fellow use their diary to talk themselves out of like me, or am I the only weirdo who does that
Anyway, one more day on which I convinced myself that telling myself I suck at writing is just one of 9 billion people, and not all of them.
So that voice in my head can shut the eff up, thanks.
If you experience the same, ask the devil on your shoulder why you should give a damn shit about anything they say Then write.
Weaving Her River
Patterns that well and effervesce. This one took a few tries. It's an improvisation. The day's offering.
The big question remains: how many to pack for a one week vacation
The functioning as my is a given. All information about our travel is inside my , so I need to bring it along & I feel better having it with me at all times. But it's a vacation! I might want to write in my or do some creative or work on my project that lives in another . Oh, decisions, decisions.
(Very happy decisions.) :blobcatbook:
Decided to write another blog post today!

Pivkirja on itselleni yksi apuvline, joka auttaa yllpitmn henkist hyvinvointia. Sen kirjoittaminen on usein tosi terapeuttista. Sinne voi oksentaa kaikki ajatukset ja olotilat eik se vlit siit millaisia ne ovat.
Joskus haasteena on kuitenkin sanoittaa ja kuvailla omia fiiliksi. En osaa itse piirt tai maalata, joten sanojen korvikkeeksi olen koittanut etsi netist kuvia, jotka kuvaisivat fiilist, tunnelmaa tai ajatuksia.
Tnn kuitenkin tajusin, ett ehk Midjourney voisi olla tykalu nihin tilanteisiin. Testasin ja olin varsin tyytyvinen siihen, mit muutaman epmrisen sanan prompti palautti.
Ehkp alankin kytt AI:n generoimia kuvia digitaalisessa pivkirjassa silloin kun omat sanat ovat hukassa
For the last maybe 10 years Ive been using a journaling app called as a diary. As times goes on it's really interesting to see what happened "on this day 8 years ago. Learned recently of a new app called and have checked it out. I don't think it'll replace DayOne for me, but Daylio is mostly free and has some improvements over DO so I thought y'all might like to know about it. It's better than DO as it's possible to "microjournal" with it. You can just choose your mood from 5 options, and then there are sections for things like health, social, chores etc. So in 10 sec you could click on Good, and then Cooking, Gym, Movies and tv, and that's it. You can also add full notes like a real diary if you want, along with photos, and it also has a goal tracker and comprehensive stats per day. I really like it. For instance, today I just chose good, coffee, dishes.
Daylio is , DayOne is
Digitaalisen ja paperisen pivkirjan yhteensovittaminen ratkaistu! Tai ainakin sain hyltty ongelmasta tervimmt kulmat pois.
Nrttiratkaisuni oli seuraava:
1) Otan paperisesta kirjoituksesta kuvan knnykll ja tallennan kuvan muodossa YYYY-MM-DD.jpg tiettyyn kansioon
2) SyncThing synkronoi nm kuvat knnykst palvelimelle
3) Palvelimella pyrii hrveli, joka siirt synkronoidut kuvat Obsidianin datahakemistoon. Mikli kyseiselle pivlle on olemassa kirjoitus, kuva(t) liitetn sen loppuun. Mikli kirjoitusta ei ole, sellainen luodaan.
Viimeisen kohdan hrvelin askartelin eilen itse. Se on vain pieni Go:lla tehty sovellus, joka nuuskii tietty hakemistoa ja tekee nuo temput aina kun sinne tulee uusia kuvia.
Nm on hienoja hetki ohjelmoijan elmss kun pystyy ratkaisemaan jonkun pienen arkisen rsytyksen koodilla
Hier schlafe ich
Natrlich hause ich noch meist unter dem Bett tagsber. Aber ich getraue mich schon frher und lnger aus dem Zimmer. Fortschritte um Fortschritte stellen sich ein. Am Ziel sind wir jedoch noch lange nicht.
Dafr habe ich entdeckt, dass man an vielen Orten gut schlafen kann. Schn, man macht mir immer Platz!

Olisipa joku nppr tapa skannata fyysisen pivkirjan sivut digitaaliseen pivkirjaan. Tykkn pit molempia, mutta fyysinen pivkirja on itselleni se trkempi.
Jostain syyst sill on merkityst, ett pivkirja tuntuu hyvlt kdess. Itsellni on sellainen nahkakantinen A5-kokoinen paksu vihko. Sen lisksi halusin, ett kynn on oltava yht miellyttv kuin vihko johon sill kirjoitan. Pitkn piti Suomalaisessa Kirjakaupassa testailla kyni ennen kuin lysin sopivan. Pivkirjan kannessa on tietenkin kyntasku, jotta kyn kulkee aina mukana. Varalla siin on mys lyijykyn jos muste sattuu loppumaan.
Tmn yhdistelmn digitointi on kuitenkin ihan hanurista. Thn menness olen vaan ottanut kuvan knnykll ja sitten lisnnyt sen ksin pivkohtaiseen muistioon, jota yllpidn Obsidianissa. Se toimii eik se oikeasti vie paljoa aikaa, mutta se on juuri sen verran rsyttv, etten nkjn halua tehd sit. Nyt pitisi digitoida monen kuukauden kirjoitukset koska olen ollut laiska. Ei napostele yhtn
Harkitsin joskus e-muistioita ja -kyni, jotka pystyvt digitoimaan kirjoitetun tekstin suoraan koneelle. Ne vaikuttivat kuitenkin sen verran toimimattomilta leluilta, ett jtin vlist. Eik niiss ole sit samaa hyv fiilist mit rehellisess paperissa ja kynss, jonka olet omin pikkuktsin valinnut
Pitisi varmaankin tehd joku nrttiviritys, joka haistelee pivmrn mukaan nimettyj kuvatiedostoja tietyst hakemistosta ja luo niiden perusteella Obsidianiin vastaavan dokumentin ja lis kuvan siihen
Where Does This Go
A quiet one and maybe a little odd. The day's offering. Hope it leads somewhere you enjoy.
today: fallen borage flowers--blue stars in the dirt. So good to take a few minutes to walk and see things. I am lucky to have this.

When someone frustrates me, I feel less angry if Im more humble. For example, when recall the circumstances in which I have done things that I regret and I realize that I don't know people's circumstances, I feel less angry and/or more compassionate.
Maybe that generalizes: in entries about challenging encounters, indicators of humility predicted fewer indicators of anger.

Was humming a tune from nowhere while washing the dishes and came upstairs to play it. Needed to reboot the computer and fiddle with USB cables for a half hour, so maybe lost something along the way. A contribution to my languishing .

I forgot I had those sailor moon stickers for some time nowI just finished watching Jonas Mekas' 1969 , .
Blurb: It was his "first completed film is an portrait of the scene of the 1960s, featuring many of Mekas' friends of that period, including Andy , Lennon, and The ."
What an amazing and strangely beautiful film. At 2hr 57min, it's a kind of journal over several years. It's style is hard to describe. I watched in on .
Sometimes ai wonder what is for...
