Go with Metaphysical Shitposting if you like to float on waves of noisy ambient drone spiked with occasional #experimental#ModularSynth#soundscape freakout ; stick with Psychedelic Ghost Stories if you prefer a little more structure to your wizard #synth anthems and weed accompaniment.

This image is part of my Photosynthesis exhibition opening tomorrow in Nantes, at La Lame Vernie Coffee in Trentemoult. It was shot during COVID semi-lockdown in Hong Kong, when both myself and Nelly (the model) had recently been through our stints of quarantine. That rough common experience brought us together creatively for a shoot I will always remember.
If you are in the Nantes / Pays de Loire area, I'd be very grateful for any amplification of the exhibition details.
Various – More Coffee For The Politicians (Phoenix Underground Music Compilation #3)
Placebo Records, 1985
Regionally focused comps were super helpful back before the internet. Best way to focus on a specific scene.
This one has a nice variety of musical styles. It's #3 in a series from Placebo spotlighting the Phoenix Scene (e.g. "This Is Phoenix, Not The Circle Jerks" and "Amuck").
There's a white paper insert with some Placebo Records and their respective prices listed. It's an order form you'd mail in.
#alacritty in the #debian#sid package has been sat at V0.12.2-2 for almost a year now. The latest version is stuck in the #experimental packages. I build alacritty myself using cargo crates and have had no issues with V0.13. I'm guessing it's the switch from YAML to TOML for the config that's the issue. But surely you can create a script to convert this? Poor stable is still at V0.11 :loading: .
(my current measurement was “go down to Albertsons and grab one bundle of fresh off the produce rack and dry all of it.” it was two rounds in my dehydrator.)
Sinon, le nouveau Brecht Ameel est très sympa aussi. Dommage que ça ne sorte pas en support physique, et là, c'est le drame : je me suis fendu d'acheter ça en version digitale. Mais je suis tristesse quand même, je pourrai pas tripoter la pochette du vinyle 😢

Near me there are no cacti large enough that I can use them for textures. On a business trip to Berlin in March, I found a couple of hours to check the Botanical Garden and the desert glasshouse there had these amazing cacti. This is one of the images that came out of it.
