@Lizbot, absolutely
Christine {¤_θ}° 6:44:29 PM
As kids, we used to pull the cicada shells off trees and secretly attach them to our friends clothing. How many could you attach without the person noticing? When would they notice they have bug shells on their clothes?? Fun times. These were the regular cicadas we saw every year.

I'm listening to the first Holly Herndon track, that I lamented being unable to hear. It's really good
Lizbot (host) 6:52:09 PM

Lizbot (host) 6:52:23 PM

Have a good trek, Mark
Lizbot (host) 6:58:03 PM
haha, no wonder my program froze - My daughter started streaming video in the other room! It crashes this program whenever she does that - it's using the same wifi! Argh! She HAS been told not to! Tweens!

How's it hanging, jimbeaux?
Christine {¤_θ}° 7:15:05 PM
I have no qualms in stating that the Qualm album is fantastic
Lizbot (host) 7:16:50 PM
@Christine - Ha!! Yes!
Mark 7:23:47 PM
maybe lizbot daughter was attempting to stream sister transistor doc / she could end up a 3.0 electronic composer influenced by these fantastic women
Christine {¤_θ}° 7:24:47 PM
@Mark, I wouldn't be surprised! ✨💻🎶
Lizbot (host) 7:25:25 PM
@Mark - haha, one could hope. Actually, she uses my synths and has been composing for a while. Now she has a duo with a kid from her class! I definitely want to show her the doc at some point soon!
Lizbot (host) 7:28:31 PM
This song title, 1,618, refers to an irrational number that is a solution to a quadratic equation with a value of 1,618, better known as the “Golden ratio.”
Christine {¤_θ}° 7:30:30 PM
Thanks for that, Liz Bot. 💡
Lizbot (host) 7:32:50 PM
@Christine - No problem! I am, after all, a robot!
Mark 7:34:59 PM
u could map out her future : berklee music & them maybe onto the new bell lab equivalent / i think Laurie spiegel will be my fav of this six hour journey:)
Lizbot (host) 7:36:48 PM
@Mark - Yeah, Berklee school of music she would LOVE
Mark 7:40:12 PM
haha she’ll be world/ PRB famous by the time brood X offspring next appear ! :)
Christine {¤_θ}° 7:44:55 PM
@Mark, that would be very cool.🔮 2038 will be here sooner than we think!

Thank you, Lizbot, for these last two Sisters with Transistors shows. Very informative end enjoyable.
Lizbot (host) 7:46:56 PM

Lizbot (host) 7:47:05 PM
Hi Dave! Thanks!
Christine {¤_θ}° 7:47:24 PM
Greetings, DTO.
Lizbot (host) 7:47:38 PM
@Dave - Had some tech difficulties today...in the name of a 12 year-old who disconnected my stream by streaming video on the same wifi connection in the other room! Argh!
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ 7:48:30 PM
I heard, Lizbot. I've been listening. Another reason I have declined to broadcast live.
Lizbot (host) 7:49:04 PM
@Dave - Wise. I was asked to so many times, I gave in! It's mostly fun to, but then stuff like that happens! Oh well!
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ 7:49:21 PM
There are three others in my household all streaming.
Lizbot (host) 7:49:22 PM
I still enjoy live, though!
Lizbot (host) 7:49:27 PM
SAME!
Lizbot (host) 7:49:38 PM
including online school homework
Lizbot (host) 7:51:32 PM
@Dave - I have an upstairs neighbor on the same wifi who I had to convince not to stream anything every Thursday from 5-8!
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ 7:52:36 PM
That's more understanding than most neighbors I am sure.
Mark 7:53:31 PM
amazing show for twilight listening / I streamed it as loud as possible near the outdoor yoga class i passed :)
Lizbot (host) 7:55:00 PM
@Mark - Thanks! Yeah, I'm watching the twilight from my windows by the computer, watching the light fade to this track
Brian D 7:55:30 PM
This plus sunset = doubly plus goodly
Lizbot (host) 7:55:45 PM
@Brian D - Haha, indeed!
Mark 7:57:07 PM
now if we could only get on mixcloud so can relisten during eclipses & rocket launches & & & .... :)
Christine {¤_θ}° 7:57:26 PM
Electronic bliss in the gloaming...
Brian D 7:58:04 PM
I was listening to Shephard tone examples today on a rabbit hole. And the break beat rhythm equivalent of Shephard tone
Lizbot (host) 7:58:33 PM
@Mark - I do intend to do MixCloud one of these days, but I fear the recording of the first half of today's show might not have been saved properly because of the program crashing. I will find out after the show! I don't know why I'll do for the rebroadcast if it didn't save!
Lizbot (host) 7:59:02 PM
@Brian D - Did you encounter any cicadas down that rabbit hole??
Lizbot (host) 7:59:52 PM
Next electronic music ++Good = all cicada buzz inspired tracks??? People have to MAKE this music first!
Lizbot (host) 8:00:11 PM
@Christine, nice! I like that description..."Electronic bliss in the gloaming..."
Brian D 8:00:28 PM
Yeah. They seemed like they were chirping faster and higher pitched as it went along
Lizbot (host) 8:02:13 PM
@Brian D - Excellent - I should aim my speakers at the ground to inspire the laggers
Lizbot (host) 8:03:00 PM
G'night All!
Rob from Maryland & Brood X 8:03:50 PM
Goodnight Lizbot and thanks for the show!
Lizbot (host) 8:04:01 PM
Thanks! Goodnight, Rob!
