"Mosses, I think, are like time made visible. They create a kind of botanical forgetting. Shoot by tiny shoot, the past is obscured in green."

gripes about Blogging These Days
i don't really like the direction wordpress has been going in with Blocks and more WYSIWYG interfaces. static site generators are intriguing, but i don't want to ditch comments, and existing self-hosted comment things are too much like Disqus and not, like, basic-ass blog comments where it's just name, optional website, email, comment, no upvotes or any of that shit.
i just want an open-source blogging platform that is primarily for *blogging* and not stores / standalone static websites / etc., that lets you use Markdown/HTML instead of WYSIWYG, and has basic comment functionality. ;_;

Re-publicizing this post because friends are giving talks soon that I want to read!
This interview with Taran Nayar/Modern Biology about using synthesizers to translate bioelectric signals from plants doesn't mention that he has albums out, too: https://modernbiology.bandcamp.com/
If you like Mort Garson's "Mother Earth's Plantasia" or any of Green-House's albums but wish they had more real plants involved, or just like nature sounds and chill electronic beats, you'll enjoy Modern Biology.
