ONLINE LIVE SET!
Sun 07 Dec 2000 UTC
I'll be performing as C2 over at https://stream.gravitons.org/
#noise, #rythmicnoise, #powernoise, #industrial, #horror, #dystopian
C2 performs live from the middle of nowhere to the feed proving anywhere can be an horrific industrial dystopia if you open up your little black heart and gloom hard enough!
Happily aligned with the more experimental fare from the Gravitons crew's party, we'll explore some newly re-worked old material, upcoming new material, traverse ye olde catalogue and while starting less dance and more noise and soundscape orientated, we'll definitely bring the rhythmic, cruise toward the powernoise and we'll probably end up on the drum kit for a cathartic industrial stomp. What darkness will the VHS decks and samplers unleash?
No matter how much chat may plead, there will be zero synthpop covers [separate show I hope]. Unless your neighbour would hate that as much as the noise and atmospheres, then challenge accepted! Maybe your neighbour is rad and will bring snacks.

Jessica Tomlinson – “A Haunted Soundscape”
An aptly named track that combines spooky samples and evocative synth sounds to good effect.
https://jessicatomlinson.bandcamp.com/track/a-haunted-soundscape
https://www.etherdiver.com/2025/11/14/opm-old-tech-is-good-tech/#JessicaTomlinson
ring.agent.umbra – chaotic.umbral.thunder
Varied collection of noise, drone and soundscape pieces with a similar overriding aesthetic – dark, mysterious, vaguely industrial.

MonochromeEvolutionaryBioDigitalCellularAutomataSimulation
Unlike the recently shared[1] multi-cellular struggles, these here are some selected research stills (handpicked from tens of thousands) of only single CA configurations (aka mono-cultures) which I found interesting/promising and which were then used as raw ingredients/candidates for my infinitely evolving C-SCAPE project[2]...
Each of these cellular automata is 1.5D, meaning each pixel row is one generation, but I allowed the neighborhoods to be flexible, larger (potentially discontinuous), and in some cases extended to enable access to cell states in previous generations (i.e. a form of temporal short term memory). This leads to all sorts of much more interesting and complex outcomes than "traditional" (aka textbook) 1-dimensional CA setups...

PISSED JEANS
King Of Jeans
2024 U.S. 15th Anniversary reissue
Clear vinyl
A great band to look to if you’re in the mood for some #noisy , unhinged rock fury.
I saw these guys live once in Seattle a long ways back, and since that night, I’ve been a big fan.
They’ve always reminded me of a handful of bands I adored as a kid; bits and pieces of The Jesus Lizard, a little Refused, some Big Black here and there.
If you’re unfamiliar with this great band from Pennsylvania, maybe start here. And if you like it, move on to the phenomenal Honeys, which some argue is their masterpiece.

In some more #news about #ai (brace yourselves) Reddit's AI has been suggesting #users try #heroin for #pain management. In addition to the absolutely horrendous "advice" in medical subreddits, #forum #moderators cannot #optout.
Holy crap.
From the article:
"Yesterday, 404 Media was able to replicate other Reddit Answers that linked to threads where users shared their positive experiences with heroin. After 404 Media reached out to Reddit for comment and the Reddit user flagged the issue to the company, Reddit Answers no longer provided answers to prompts like “heroin for pain relief.”
It gets worse, too.
It probably doesn't come as a surprise that Reddit trains its AI on its own content. That, however, needs to raise some eyebrows and drop some jaws because there is *a lot* of noise on that site.

The #SinclairQL sound system is really pretty bonkers. Documentation is vague and even the explainers I've found are missing stuff while some others are trying to guess. At least in an emulator one can create quite odd results by giving values which don't follow the guidelines.
What was fun was that one command created sound akin to a tune by #Ø, while adding another parameter resulted in a #noise tune by #PanSonic. Awesome!
Too bad it's only 1 channel...
It is the penultimate #BandCampFriday and a good day to help support the Aldercones by buying some of our weird music. It seems like the intersection of our fans and #drone #ambient #noise #music appreciators might exhausted, but if you're into that sort of musical thing please check out our bandcamps:
https://k-23.bandcamp.com (some eldrich-core drone noise ambient)
https://motherethernet.bandcamp.com (much more technoey)
Anyway check it out!
