Pluralistic: 2024’s public domain is a banger (20 Dec 2023) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow
Hey everyone, I’m #newhere. I’m interested in #freeculture, #freesoftware, #garden, #lisp, #maker, #myphoto, #nature, and #politics.
Hi! I think I found a new home, after having a period of technical issues with my previous pod.
Youtube-dl Site Goes Offline as Hosting Provider Enforces Court-Ordered Ban
Hosting provider Uberspace has taken down the website of YouTube-ripping software, youtube-dl. The removal is the result of a German court order in a copyright infringement lawsuit, filed by Sony, Warner and Universal. While Uberspace didn't host the open source software, it was held responsible for the website linking to the software hosted on developer platform GitHub.

A friend of mine is in the process of producing her first #music album and will soon publish on spotify. I want to give her a tip on other places, without DRM, where she can publish her songs. Does anyone have tips for websites for this?

Page 75 from my comic - Phill from GCHQ - which is a twenty-first of December solstice page :) So with this: happy midwinter.
This comic has been the single most important work of this project. I have had the first album printed, and the second is finished and ready for a Kickstarter for which I have had a hard time finding the mental resources. But it will happen in 2023.
You can read the comic in its entirety here: Phill from GCHQ

Procesa The Sea Witch
A new digital painting - A Sea witch by the name of Procesa.
Made as one of my experiments with combining photo collage (the sea, and the wooden object Procesa is holding which is an artwork made by my wife) and then painting on top - in this case Procesa herself.

Two older drawings from February 2020. Just for fun and so they would not be forgotten and buried under the heavy weight of all the other things I have made.

Imperial Archive 5
I have been a little ill these last couple of days and have had a bit hard concentrating on anything. I have been doing some digital painting work for a friend that is to be used as material for a animated film, and I have finished the e-book of the Otagburuagu-project, but moving ahead really slowly.
This digital painting is what I produced yesterday after doing what I could for the animation project. It is one of the many pulp-fiction scifi book covers without a story that I have made the last six month. The city behind was something I doodled a while ago without really knowing where it should lead. But yesterday I sat down and figured out what it was - The entrance to Imperial Archive 5.

For the first time in a long while I have had time for some casual monster painting.

Incubo
Today I was editing all the illustrations for the Professor Otagburuagu book because I had made a mistake when setting up the template. It have taken all day. After that I just needed some time off... so I made this peculiar painting.
Incubo means nightmare in Italian - I am sort of an expert in nightmares.
