If I got my hands on a gifted #raspberryPi, what could I do with it? I don't know any specs yet, just that it's a RasPi that a relative no longer needs. It's probably not very new or high-powered (I suspect).
If you have any cool projects with a RasPi (especially involving art or creative coding), I want to see them.

Here's a jazz album that I remembered just a couple days ago: Keith Jarret - The Köln Concert https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pd_Kti6jvy8

I am still not doing super well. I feel like my life has fallen apart and I am in the process of slowly (and with setbacks every now and again) putting everyday things back together. Things like keeping the fridge somewhat filled, fixing broken things and cleaning up the worst dirt.
Every extra chore depletes my energy stores.
The current political climate doesn't help. (Please use Content Warnings!)
I had a singing lesson today. That was good.

Every now and then, I listen to this impromptu recording of six Icelandic guys singing a cappella in a German train station. It gives me goosebumps every single time.

eeeee! New Eli Fieldsteel #Supercollider lecture playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPYzvS8A_rTYvefjmrMKmXmhyRj59J7Nu
It's an introduction course again, but I might watch the more advanced videos to brush up on concepts. Also, I might take inspiration from the playlist for any SC teaching I might do in the future.

I finally did some singing practice again, after a long time of travel, no private time and space, illness and plain old not getting around to it because I had a ton of other stuff to do, and more illness.
It's hard getting into it because singing requires such a different headspace compared to the rest of everyday life. The only other thing I know that can get me into a similar headspace is ritual. But gods, is it good for my mood.

Today, our neighbor came over with her 8-month old kid because the kid loves animals. Baby was so delighted to meet Selena the cat, it was a joy to watch.

OTOH, I've had difficult and hard-to-hear personal news today, and I know the coming 2 months might be hard. I may need every bit of joy I can get.

To FAWM or not to FAWM this year? I feel like I'm drifting further and further away from songwriter stuff.
But I might still post weird sketches or recorded livecoding sessions, and I had a blast doing my first remix last year! (Or was that two years ago? Time's a blur!) So maybe a remix-focused FAWM might be fun this year.

Slept pretty long, had a bowl of cereal and coffee and cuddled with the cats. I feel ready to face the unpacking and the laundry and grocery shopping now.
And as usual, great appreciation to the airline workers on our trip, they were friendly, helpful and dealt with a lost boarding pass in a very calm and professional manner.

127.0.0.1 sweet 127.0.0.1. Food was had, cats were pet, and my resolve to take a shower is rapidly waning. I can't sleep on planes, so now I'm thoroughly exhausted.

Germany, I am in you again.
Totally on brand: Our train home is delayed.

Ohai, back on European soil. One more episode of sitting in a flying tin can, then a couple trains before home, cuddling kitties and collapsing into bed. #travel

[#]Guitar people: I overdid it a couple days ago, after not playing for some months. Now the tip of my left pinky hurts when I touch it. No visible swelling or extraordinary redness.
Have you ever run into this? What helped you recover? How do you prevent it from recurring?

I'm also very happy that I got to have some good conversations (and some super fun boardgames) with my nieces. They're all young adults now and growing into their own personalities.

Tomorrow, I fly back to Germany. I didn't do or go see a lot, but I still learned so many interesting things. I celebrated a few nights of Hanukkah with my Jewish family members, and I met the guy who founded and trained the National Tibetan soccer team (he's friends with my brother-in-law).
I also spent some time with a very cute and very big dog and made a music visualization in p5js.
