⚘ nyc co-op cloud convergence #2 ⚘

this thursday february 19th at ridgewood commons from 8pm to 11pm

this one will be more hands-on than the first one

we will be looking at the ridgewood commons coop cloud deployment (to give a helping hand) and getting to know backup bot a bit better

annoyed that atproto depends on dns, and dns is such a clear vector of censorship that seems likely to continue to be used more frequently

altho i guess browsers etc with alternative dns resolvers, or even dns-over-tor, is a pretty straightforward workaround, but i think not currently mainstream

alternative thoughts on legality:

- if its broadcast privately to friends via iroh instead of on public internet do different laws apply?

- also interested in just broadcasting metadata, along with something that provides yt-dlp/soulseek commands to seamlessly find the songs from the metadata (rehydratable broadcast?)

- or it can just be anon and illegal like soulseek if thats the route with the most legal clarity (sometimes being illegal and uncensorable is more resilient infra anyway)

- imagining a terminal-user-interface for this whole thing kind of like cmus, but with an extra window to see all of my friends/peers who have play history in the last 24 hours along with a browsable timeline of their play history along with possibility to leave little notes with songs on your broadcast

... sort of a halfway-house in between soulseek, spotify friends are playing, and internet radio...

internet radio idea of the day...

*-*-*-*-*

curious how the following idea would relate to legal definitions of internet radio?

& the line between a livestream, and a store and forward network ?

*-*-*-*-*

p2p internet radio :: body-double-radio (inspired by https://drdevonprice.substack.com/p/being-socially-motivated-is-not-a) ::

- as I play music, what I listen to is broadcast as internet radio
and my friends can tune into my stream
- my stream is not just broadcast live, but broadcast with a 24 hour play history, so people can see the last 24 hour history and tune into any part (inspired by store and forward gossip networks with broadcasts via relays)
- the player that tunes into a stream "plays before downloading", so its a broadcast not reproduction (but clients have seamless built-in analog hole plugins to save streams with the correct metadata)

2025-02-06T17:40:36Z

is there a tool that lets u share a playlist in whatever platform you listen to music, and it makes a link with duplicated versions of that playlist on every other music platform?

so when you send someone a playlist it doesnt say anything about how they should listen to it?

posse for playlists?

Excited to share https://infrastructures.us

A website archiving the first two sessions of Solidarity Infrastructures, a class at The School For Poetic Computation looking at and experimenting with analog and digital infrastructures in various forms.

The first two sessions technically focused on working with Yunohost, but many participants also branched out in totally different directions, from setting up a mesh network to a community fridge, to a forum about foxes.
