Commute via train sometimes shows you a golden landscape in front of the window.
Reflections due to train windows, but the sunlight was hitting different this evening.

I’ve had a productive couple of days …
the #Atmos height channels are all now up in the air, and it makes a *huge* difference in how the system actually sounds.
It’s as if someone has lifted the roof off, and all this activity that was going on above my head is revealed …
clear as can be, like I’ve moved from #Flatland into the world of the third dimension. Woohoo! #3D
I still have some things to get sorted out; I need to pick up some more speaker wire, as some of the cables are now too short, and draping in the wrong places.
Some of my artwork will need to be moved … I may need to get creative and come up with new ideas to fill some of the spaces that are more sympatico with … you know, speakers on poles.
I feel like mentioning MakerStock.com, which was a great source for precision cut Baltic Birch plywood for the speaker mounts. I don’t have a wood shop, so they were a big help!
The #TTArtisan fisheye lens gets everything into the picture … and as you can see, my keyboards are happy with the change, and they’re smiling now, too. : )
Thanks for putting up with my babbling about this over multiple weeks and posts … it really has paid off in a major way – more than I let myself hope for.
It will take me a little while to pick up the #Sonarworks calibration software, but that will go a long way towards compensating for this less-than-optimal mixing environment.

Went on a 1 hour ride on my BMX bike yesterday. It's been over a year since my last ride. Moved to a new house, new neighborhood. I'm blind, legally, so finding a place with no people that I might hit is the key. It was rainy yesterday, so I went down to the local basketball court and did circles and figure eights. I'm feeling it in my arms are legs this morning. I'm inspired to learn flatland BMX tricks, but I'm just a beginner and just trying not to fall off for now. :-P

We’re all experiencing genuine reality from our particular dimensional constraint.
Examination of the book Flatland and trying to relate it to architecture.

Book review: Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions - Edwin A. Abbott
⭐⭐⭐

Jeff "never puts away anything, especially oven mitts" Cliff, Bringer of Nightmares 🦝🐙 🇱🇧🧯 🇨🇦 @[email protected] ·Can't tell if #flatland is a sharp satire of victorian england or a platonist wet dream so far. -
Our interdimensional #TTRPG explorers are confused by this. They've never seen an dimension that mixes essentialist and existential entities like that. Maybe they "alien abduct" the PCs. Maybe they experiment on them or test them somehow. I don't know, because I never figured out where to go with that idea, which is why I never used it. Maybe you can figure out the part that I couldn't.
(And make the aliens four-dimensional because going full #Flatland makes it more surreal.)

The flat earthers, do they at least concede that earth is 3D (like a cuboid) or do they think it is 2D like in Abbott's Flatland? 🤔
If the former, there might still be some hope. 🤞

I suppose #EdwinAbbotAbbot in his 1884 book #Flatland came close?

#Flatland is one of the first books I read, somehow. Much like #Dune, it's one of those books I've re-read every decade or so and every time I see another layer of the story. Very-very young me was fascinated by the "living geometry" and dimension-spanning thought-experiments and was disinterested in the social commentary, for example.
