I am going to make a music section to which I also hope you will contribute. I'm going to add a directory synth-synth and a search item named synth-synth-search. Here I will list and search gopher itemtype 9s on my/your gopher. I'm not going to crawl for them. Please tell me when you produce sounds if you would like them listed. This is a celebration of the discovery of higher order synths: Synths so synthy they have transcended being real synth, though vanilla flavoured synths are allowed. Programming languages and softwares of all stripes, vibrating cord synths, standing wave form air column synths all explicitly welcome. It's not a rule but I am interested in amplifiers too, although I don't have one. The *rule* is that they have to be put on your gopher, because this is what a gopher directory can direct gophers to. In my example, I'm going to use my own name, but you would use your own name. ssh screwtape@tty.sdf.org 'mkdir -p ~/gopher/music/' ssh screwtape@tty.sdf.org \ 'tee ~/gopher/music/my-track.ogg > /dev/null' < my-track.ogg ssh screwtape@tty.sdf.org 'chmod -R go+rx ~/gopher' ssh screwtape@tty.sdf.org <<EOF > /dev/null mail -s "Hey you can list my sweet new track" screwtape <<EOG gopher://gopher.club/9/screwtape/music/my-track.ogg EOG EOF # Note if you wanted a file in your ~/gopher/ to not be made available via gophernicus, # it (just) needs to not be o+x . You can fix that yourself. (chmod o-x ..) It is encouraged but not necessary to play your tracks on aNONradio openmic. If you are jamming live on openmic please record it yourself. A pulse audio ffmpeg line might be like: ffmpeg -f pulse -i alsa_output.hw_0_0.monitor \ -c:a libmp3lame \ -ar 44100 \ -b:a 192k \ openmic.mp3 to record openmic from your speakers, using pulse on linux to an mp3. Looking forward to hearing from you mail, commode, my go wall or otherwise.
