Photography
I’m really happy with the results using the negative scanner at the library Makerspace, to be able to share new film photography…
Plus, if you missed my latest gallery on train details, it’s worth a look. Those are all scans from the original negatives.
Speaking of which, don’t get screwed and miss having your own Smiling Savage airplane tee-shirt, also available in long sleeve. ;-)
Music
The latest entry in the Smiling Savage album creation podcast is out — even though I think the track has issues. Paid subscribers can also hear “Song 6” v1 — although they should skip this version.
I’m liking the embedded player from Bandcamp, and thought “Digital Dreams… Just The Synths” by Sophie Rose was a great listen.
Strange Interactions in the Night from Caracara is a great track off their new “New Preoccupations” album…

This origami model of a classic Mac is so cute!
And here’s a great new hardware project for the Commodore 64 — the WiC64 is a wifi modem to download programs …
An Apple II streaming music is something I hadn’t seen — or heard — before…
Gaming
This 3D-printed case for the Mister FPGA multi system is really well thought out …
Why yes, who hadn’t wondered if the PS5 was actually bigger than the Atari 5200…
The Mobware minigame jam looked like fun, so, I entered it and created my first game for the Playdate.
