I was thinking of that post before I even saw your comment, hehe. smile

I can't wait to do this! thanks Katsumbhong

This wouldn't get in the way of a frontlight mod at all, would it? I haven't tried either mod yet, so I'm just curious.

When I lived in Indonesia I was truly surprised at how many people made chip. I wish I could go back and actually get involved and meet them.

Here in Boise though, only Abadox and I seem to be active. On one hand it's lonely, but on the other, it's kind of an advantage, like Sketchman said. Hardly anyone knows about it, so you get the privilege of being their first exposure to it.

I have bought a couple EMS carts which always corrupt data even with a new battery. They're pretty much just collecting dust now. However I have others that have been fairly reliable. I think you just need to buy a new one man, sorry. hmm

You know, I was explaining to my good friend and fellow musician about how chip music is primarily an online-community driven scene and that live performances and such are really secondary, which he mused about being backwards from how music and the internet have worked together in the past.

I thought that was an interesting point. I really would consider what happens online to be of greater importance and live events to be more of a celebration of this music/scene/movement/whatever it is we're doing. And even then, there are often livestreams happening because they know many, many of the people interested are strewn all about the world. Cool little observation I thought.

I could agree with that, however I'd say that it's the public performances which draw in, and expose chipmusic, to a lot of people. Or at least in urban areas where you have venues and bars and other places to play. I get far more positive attention and interest from people when I do shows rather than just sharing tracks online. It could be different for people of varying degrees of "popularity" within the chipmusic scene, but for a lesser known / less talented or experienced person like myself, I don't get much regard from other people online. That's what makes playing "live" so fun for me; I can share my music on a different level, plus all the fun kinds of reactions I get from an unfamiliar crowd. It's really more encouraging. smile


- anyways, this thread was gold. (x we all can relate to this struggle on some level
