California’s valiant attempt to be relevant to this article in the face of an overwhelming aura of Florida is cute.

This is an old post but I felt it slipped into some crack somewhere but still deserves a reply. It’s a very general question so this will be a pretty general reply, though.

My first thought is to just listen to nore music/listen to music more often, especially in an active sense (not just passively having some background music). So this would mean paying attention to the music, even if it’s as simple as thinking about which parts you like more. You don’t even need to know how to analyze music to think about music you like or find interesting. All you need is a sense of curiosity about wanting to understand what you’re listening to.

Once you’ve found what you like, start trying to figure out what it is about what you like that makes you like it. This is where music theory comes in, but you can approach this as simply as asking/discussing about it in a place like this where you can bounce your ideas off of other people, and learn some theory in the process. It might not be the thing you’re actually looking for, but it will at least be some useful information for further thinking about music and analyzing it. And even if you’re a complete noob to music theory, you’ll start to pick up some basic concepts pretty quickly as long as you’re interested in understanding something.

If you’ve learned enough theory to be able to make some sense of the structures and aspects of music on your own, you can apply this to your own active listening, by thinking of relevant music theory concepts as a way to help figure out what makes music tick for you. That in turn can help train you to hear the various elements of the music that are relevant to you.

Update: the city of Plantation has just added an event!

Project: City of Plantation note: only covers Plantation Preserve Linear Trail and Golf Course special event: September 9, 9am ~ 11am

Again, note that the project covers the whole month, even though the special event is on a particular day.

Oh, you might already know this but I just wanted to mention that there’s City Nature Challenge in May, which is also a BioBlitz run in a bunch of different places (similar to the Parks for Pollinators event in that regard).

Yeah, there’s a variety of BioBlitz events; this one just happens to be one of the bigger sets of events.

And thanks for the extra info!

I clicked on it expecting just a simple “they’re genetic clones and they’re susceptible this same disease”, but this is quite a bit more depth about things. Thanks for sharing!

An advertisement need not necessarily be art, but what counts as art is also a subjective thing. “Just text and some stars” could be art, depending on how one thinks about it.

Wait, do you mean it was possible to place white on white? I thought that wasn’t possible…

I disagree; something can be both advertisement and art at the same time.

To some extent, some people also painted more when they saw there was more space. I know I did. If the Canvas had filled up, I’d either have stopped or gotten involved in turf battles if they came up.

I don’t think this was possible this time, but someone suggested this possibility upthread.

FWIW as a sidenote I just wanted to point out that it seems the system tracked pixel ‘virginity’ based simply on whether they’d been touched at all before, including corrections; rather, it was background pixels that didn’t charge the extra cooldown, from what I could tell.

Sorry for the silly nitpicking about wording, though given that the Canvas treated these two properties separately I wonder if this might be useful information for whoever runs this next time.

oh yeah i forgot about the Metal Slug games! haven’t played them yet though.

makes eggs, throws eggs

Ooh, it’s the entire Island of Dr. Brain soundtrack! Though I think I played this with PC Speaker audio as a kid lol.

Sidenote: I love how the visual presentation uses the in-game dialog box style.

Wow, that’s like 3000 pixels total.

Interesting.

🎊

oh snap, this is actually legit good
