Tuesday was the 97th anniversary of the release of Steamboat Willie, which means it entered the public domain on jan 1 2024. I am not ashamed to say that I hate Disney because of their lobbying to increase the duration of copyright. Here is a photo of hanging steamboat Willie.

I have a CD player with electronic skip protection, and when it gets far enough in the last track of the CD, it spins down the CD because the player has the audio data in memory. For those curious, I was listening to the Residents American Composers Series 3 CD set. Quite interesting.

Shaking a polaroid with a theragun. I figured actually shaking it with my hand might make my wrist hurt.

I went out to see some music on Saturday and thought I was dressed cute. Face redacted for obscurity purposes.

Primus cigarettes?

This man would FREAK OUT about how many states have legal weed these days.

Everytime I see this album I get excited and think it is Meet the Residents. #theResidents #theBeatles

This is a pretty photo I took in fall. Shot on Polaroid Now gen 1 with i-type film. #polaroid #photography #naturephotography #polaroidnow #instantphotography

Here is an interesting manipulated Polaroid I took a while ago.

My top ten fav albums of 2024.

These Polaroids were ones I did to try and get an manipulated side profile of my synth, a Yamaha CS-5. The first image I eventually used as the base for album art to Kernel Panic. #Polaroid #manipulatedPolaroid #polaroidmanipulation #yamahacs5

For this Polaroid, I attempted to make it look like the art for Peter Gabriel's 3rd self titled album, also known as Melt. The photo used for the Melt art was a color Polaroid and they did a black and white cover. The time zero film they would have used would have been more manipulable. #polaroid

Did you know you can manipulate modern Polaroids? Here are two images, the before manipulation and after manipulation images of a Polaroid I had taken of my synth/rhythm machine I had.
