Necessity of No Updates

This weblog is largely inactive, but I’d like to give a few words why.

It began at a time where I had a lot of time on my hands. I was living at home, having left college, saving up money to go abroad. I had time. I had time to do things like sit in front of a computer monitoring sound output and waiting around for audio to transfer minute-by-minute, real time. Life changes.

There’s no way I have that sort of time now, for simple reasons. I still have all the audio I want to share, and all the equipment. However, age hasn’t done my Minidisc recorder any favors. The battery can’t hold a charge like it used to, and the right channel on the binaural microphones themselves seems to have gone sour. Most modern electronics weren’t built to last I suppose. It’s never long before they’re replaced by something better.

So really, the Manifesto of this blog that included an optimistic “Theory on How This Will Work” was really too optimistic. I’d like to think that someday I may make available an archive of some sort, but I don’t see this format going much of anywhere… even though it’d be really interesting.

So, for simply another event that was before it’s time, and whose time seems to have passed, let this be a monument. This is what might have been.
