Happy St. Patrick's Day appreciates you guys tuning into this episode and checking it out. I wanted to talk today about some information coming out about NF T's. And it's been a great, significant bit of news in the digital art market, at least in the last couple of weeks or something. And it might be a short-term bubble, but I thought I'd talk about it a bit. It's these, these non-fungible tokens in this kind of weird and abstract idea that I don't think we've seen explored yet, and it's going to make sense in the future, probably for digital spaces or something like that. But it's also kind of a strange idea. These NF T's, these non-fungible tokens, are these kinds of blockchain-backed tickets of pieces of art built into a smart contract so that you can have information about it. And it's, I guess, it's proof of origin to the owner. And this is supposed to be what makes it valuable and unique. And these go up on markets, and art collectors are purchasing these digital art pieces to be individual pieces of digital art, or at least have the unique ownership of that token of digital art. I guess it goes up in value; a few different people have made a lot of money trying to sell these, these NF t pieces of rare art that they're creating. And it'll be interesting to see how it plays out. I also think it's kind of related to the big, big boost that we've seen in aetherial. And in Bitcoin in the last couple of months, where people had, I guess, like a lot of money or a lot of assets in Ethereum and Bitcoin, and they were able to put that over into these collectible pieces of art and see that I guess they grow in value. Also, I think William Shatner put out an NF t collection of collectible works of art throughout his career that the NBA put out top shots, which is like a collectible Hi, highlight reel of different pieces of the games this year, I guess. There are other trading cards and stuff that have come out various selling video game tools, or video game assets that you can buy and then transfer in a wallet to the game and then apply like special armor or special tools or unique swords or something like that. And that kind of makes sense. In a digital world, you buy an asset that you would want to have in it, and then it would do something. But it's interesting, though, in the art market, I think Grimes put out some piece of digital artwork or some collection of digital painting, and it's sold for millions of dollars. I think Lindsay Lohan put out just a picture of herself with an Ethereum diamond in front of her face that sold for $17,000. The band Kings of Leon was the first to put out an NFT album and NFT collectible, and I guess collectible band memorabilia around it or something. But I think it was through yellow heart.io was this company partnered with to do an NFT release of their album, which is interesting. And it'll be interesting to see how the kind of control that stuff into the future. But yeah, they definitely like it at the moment when the NF t story was popping. So I heard about it a few weeks ago. I've also heard about a few years ago, I think, like back in 2019. I talked a bit about the distributed apps and the interplanetary file system stuff being developed. And it's different and a few others it's more blockchain but kind of related stuff about using some distributed web stuff to do some interesting, I guess, kind of distributed sales and tools and stuff. But it's cool that this has some taken off; it'll be interesting to sort of see what's going on; it's getting a lot of attention by digital artists as an opportunity to be a new avenue to sell art and to have an evaluation of collectible art. And it'll be cool if it does take off. And it's probably like early days like it was sort of weird and abstract to talk about Bitcoin early on; it's perhaps still too odd and abstract to talk about NF T's and unique pieces of digital art as having equity in the digital virtual reality space. Maybe that'll make more sense in 15 years, but right now, it seems like why I don't understand what that was even to do with that. Which is, you know, kind of where I'm at, I don't know that you like, how you get the accurate equity in a digital asset like that if you can duplicate it and copy it. Again. And again, even though you have a smart contract that does say, You're the original owner, I kind of get through some evaluation of it. But still, it just sorts of seems like there, and it doesn't have to hold that much value. But for collectors and stuff, it's an exciting way to see it. But what I'm looking at was a couple of ways that photographers tried to apply this to set up their sets of photos or see as a collection of pictures and like, e-book or something like that, or even like physical goods, where they have an intelligent contract set up to have a print delivered to the individual who purchases it, along with the NFT, that I think is just the blockchain ledger record of original ownership or something. So it's interesting how, I guess, they weigh that out; I haven't seen anybody be specifically successful with any one way of doing it yet. And that would be interesting to seeing what happens; I was looking at Trey Radcliff he's, he's been in the digital photo environment for about ten years or something like that big an HDR stuff, it's okay. And successful, push a lot of work sells it to a lot of good spots, a lot of good prints and stuff out there, he set up an NFT gallery of some of his prints to be limited run collectible. So you can go in and select in a gallery and get, or whatever it is that that smart contract, I guess kind of sets you up for maybe it's a specific print, perhaps it's just that, like, whatever digital version has a locked content piece that you get there, you can purchase it and then have that as a collectible. And it makes sense for a lot of artists. So in that sense, it's something similar to what I'm going to try and do where I'm going to set up a gallery of some of my photographs and a limited run as NF T's in their only run as those NF T's and put them on the market to see how they work. But generally, that seems like an analog to the same function that you do for a stock photography market where you'd buy a photo, receive the file, and have the right to use that photo. Or if you were going to purchase an image or a digital print off of my website or something like that, and then receive that was just sort of like it seems in a way another analog to achieve that same thing. What's interesting is if, if it kind of goes into a different space, where are you getting some digital asset that you're applying to a, let's say like virtual reality, art theater that you have. This is, I guess kind of one of the notions that you're supposed to go along with in the future is you'll have some like augmented reality glasses, say that will show different digital art pieces along your walls in your house as you go around or a VR environment where you can move to a whole virtual environment that offers you, I don't know your sports cards collection, or you move to another room, and it's your digital art pieces, or your I don't know, whatever other pieces you can collect as NF T's, and then you have those unique pieces, and I guess it's we'd see more of the value, I think in some ways, it's going to be kind of a bubble since it doesn't seem to hold as tightly to the value of stuff on the blockchain; it's kind of difficult to even sort of getting the abstraction of the importance of Ethereum or, or of Bitcoin. And you're not really. It's challenging to Infuse the piece of art with that, I guess, stayed together. Or it seems like something that sold for a high price could suddenly drop and be almost valueless if there's no other buyer in the market to repurchase it. So it seems like right now, there's a lot of liquidity in it because there's a lot of art collectors with a lot of Ethereum cash that is trying to do a quick flip of stuff to see collectible items escalate and value. And so there's going to be some risks and some big winners in that. And they'll probably come out on top if they invest. Right. But as it is for like a real collectible piece you intend to, I keep, or you know, really have and do something with. I don't know if I see how it's going to play out, at least in the short term. So it'll be kind of interesting as listening on the clubhouse. It's like a newer app. Probably most people have heard of it in some way by now. But it's a new app. And it's like audio like group messaging thing. At the same time, we're outside of messaging. I think it's like a group chat. But for voice. It's silly. It's got like a conference call. So I've kind of just been listening in on a few of them. Everybody talks about Bitcoin. When in crypto and, in this case, like NF T's on that, it's full of people getting into it. And I hear a lot of nonsense on that channel; mostly, when I was listening in on some of their ideas and stuff, it seemed like they were a little detached from, like, kind of the realities of what it is to put it together and, and sort of move it along. And I might sound that way, too, if you hear this. But it was kind of interesting to sort of try and pick up on what they were thinking. And it seems like people are hopeful that this is going to be a significant change. And it probably will, in the long run, be something that sticks around. But in the format that it is right now, I think it's going to adjust. I think there's going to be some leveling in the market. And there's going to be certainly some winners in the collectible space. And it's not like an even kind of marketplace yet to really understand the value of goods and stuff. So we'll see how it is. One exciting part of it is the kind of strange part is the inefficiency of some of it. Now I'm talking about the Ethereum blockchain. And it seems like most NF T's that are being bought and sold and traded in the collectible space right now are moving across the Ethereum blockchain, through the marketplaces like open see this sort of the one that I primarily See, or re arable, or there's like, known origin, or a couple of others that are out there that are pretty interesting. And they have some lovely pieces. And some of them are like invite-only, where you have to be known artists or have some connection or have some group review your art so that it goes up and is of some state of quality. And it's cool to be in that marketplace. It's a superheated marketplace right now with a lot of attention. And a lot of liquid Bitcoin, a lot of liquid, I guess, asset and the theory to buy that at a higher value than what you kind of, I think, think it would maybe be worth. And so it's kind of cool that artists can get their pieces in there and perhaps sell something. But it's also. It's interesting because there are gas fees related to I'm not sure, if you're kind of familiar with the way that Ethereum transactions work, I'm not entirely I don't, I don't understand how they change it. It used to be much cheaper to pay, you have your transaction, and that's a fee. And then you have what it costs to do the work of making that transaction, that's the gas that it does, like transact that on the blockchain and sort of pay this Ethereum gas, it used to be kind of a relatively low fee, because if Ethereum was valued at a low value, so whatever it's it was also kind of a lower yield of people trying to demand transactions on the network. And I guess the market demand for it is what kind of increases its value. So all of a sudden, now, the gas fee to mint an NFT on Ethereum is somewhere around $100. It was like $80; it was $90, it was $124. Lowest I've seen it in the last two weeks, somewhere around $65. So for just one NFT, if you are minting it, and that's just the creation of it. So I guess it just seems like it's it which would have once been, I should mention, which would have once been like, a few dollars, or maybe Max $10 or something like that. And now, with the escalation to that demand and the gas fees. Now it's like nearly 100 bucks. So just the way that it kind of works to put an item as an NFT into a marketplace seems a little too costly. And it's sort of like to what end is, am I doing anything with that work. So it's cool; it just should be maybe a more efficient way of getting that transaction accomplished. Like other blockchains can do, perhaps like the same ledger task and record things cryptographically in the blockchain so that you do have proof of like unique ownership or, you know, the particular creation date. But you can do that perhaps for like a cheaper gas fee if you're doing it on some, you know, collectible blockchain. So, let's get to the idea. I guess I was thinking that I was looking at the ghost market.io. And that's another marketplace site that I put up a couple of my photos is NF Ts, which runs on a different blockchain like the phantasma blockchain. So it's almost costless to put up an NF t on that page, like, you know, if you like 10 cents or 20 cents or something like that, I guess it would evaluate to, and he uses the same sort of system. So we're using a crypto coin to run the transaction onto the blockchain and mint the NFT in the same kind of ledger process. It's the same kind of file asset or unlockable stuff, but it's just like using a different cryptocurrency. And then, I guess, and I've still kind of confused as works. Still, I think it's supposed to be compatible with Ethereum, or you're able to transfer that into your crypto wallet. Then how to in the theory and wallet or back onto the Ethereum blockchain, you have to kind of pay for a transfer something there, but I guess it's supposed to be interoperable. I don't know how it works. So it's kind of like, a little mysterious to me. But I'm kind of interested in shadow work on it. So what I'm going to try and do this week is set up a gallery of NFT photos from some of my portfolio stuff. And maybe I'll try and put that as, as a link on my website, or Just as a link that I have available. I've been trying to kind of debate or a bit between trying to set it up with Open C is probably the site that I would use to set up FTS with the Ethereum blockchain. But yeah, as I mentioned, there's just that that heavy Ethereum gas fee; it seems right now to be around 80 to $90, just a mint one. On the open sea, they have a process called lazy minting. That allows you to pay just once the first time to set up your first NFT in your account on the open sea. And so, you pay around $80 for your first minting through that process. But then after that, as you list things for sale, it will do it as a lazy man. So that means that you don't pay the Ethereum gas fee until someone purchases that that listing on the open sea marketplace, and then it's minted into an NFT. And then it's owned, I guess by the purchaser there; I think it's set so that the buyer pays the gas fee. So I feel included in the price of your item or something. And there's like it's like some circumstances if you take as a low bid offer, then the seller pays the gas fee and it but doing that process, you're not if you make a gallery of it, you're not, you're not finalizing and minting the NFT until the time that the item sells. So if you perhaps don't sell many of those items, they aren't ever minted into NF T's. They do, though, however, list on the marketplace. And I guess that's a significant benefit, generally, is that you're trying to list on one of the biggest marketplaces to get your artwork seen. A lot of the painting I see right now is like digital artwork created on the phone or through some digital manipulation, sort of with a cinema graph tool like cinema graph Pro. Some make like a still picture have some flowing motion elements in them. I've seen as a lot of that sort of stuff, where a lot of like kinds of gifts where there's a couple of seconds of rotating sculpture in a digital video, you know, I don't know, it's kind of interesting to see the types of things that are purchased as art collectibles right now. So it's somewhat interesting, what I do see those that it seems to be artists that are selling things or artists with a big market, following you know, they have like a more prominent Instagram or Twitter or art marketplace network already. So I think like some of the artists that I'd seen perform success successfully in selling their NF T's in the collectible market, we're already involved in like the art of like, high-end Fine Art market, with high-end art collectors, that are moving into this digital space. And they have a manager, agents, and a marketing program kind of already laid out for the launch of the NFT collectible product. And so it seems like they're already prepared to, to kind of make listing, you know, like, list that and advertise it to, you know, 250,000 people that would kind of potentially be in that collector's position. So they've already kind of at a higher tier position, I guess in that hierarchy anyway. So it's kind of interesting to seeing how that is. And we'll be seeing how it starts to take off over time. But yeah, I think it's maybe perhaps a bubble for a bit of time. But, remarkably, the crypto prices are going up like they are. And it's cool that the NF t space exists, which will probably advance into the future and stuff. I wanted to talk about it a little today on the podcast and put out a couple of my thoughts. I want to try and fill it out a bit more in the future. Maybe we'll talk a bit more about that clubhouse app that I was talking about and some NFT gallery stuff that I put together this week on the next episode. Also, some good stuff. It's pretty active. But thanks for listening to this episode, the photo pack, So thank you again.

Appreciate you guys checking out another exciting episode of one to avoid bad dust in the background. So I wanted to do another podcast today to do a sort of a collection of some of the things that I've been trying to work on getting the computer stuff up and go and that I've been trying to do, so it's a few different things that I've been trying to detect, check out a lot of it around some of the surveys, just talking about around the ipfs interplanetary file system, stuff that I've been thinking is pretty fun, it's kind of cool, checking out some of these different systems that people are creating like D tube that I've talked about a few times d sounds dot audio is another one that I've been trying to publish to which sort of has its ups and downs in some way. But then really on the other side of it is some of the stuff that you can do with the browser's system, or I think I'm using the various right now. And then there's also the ability to. I guess set it up from the command line or something like that. But say diria is the Orion side by siderius. I think Orion by saying do seem to be the easiest way to get an ipfs node started on your computer, Windows, Mac, or Linux, which is pretty cool. So I have mine going on a Windows 10 computer over here. I have it going on to Macintosh computers. And I'm still trying to figure out sort of how it works, I think a lot of stuff that you're putting up is going on to your local node, and it's being served out from there. But I was testing it out the other day just with Marina. And we like uploaded a small picture and got the hash link for it and then opened it in the browser on her computer and it pulled up the image file, it pulled up like an E-book thing that I put up there too. So it's pretty cool that you can find it that you can, I guess even have that built out. But really interesting out works. So I'm trying to I guess use that a little bit more and put up a bunch of the videos and stuff that I have up there. And a way where I can use it in the long term. You know, my understanding of it is that it's sort of persistent on the internet. And then it'll be there distributed for a long time, if it gets distributed properly before, I think if it gets off my note or something like that, but I'm not even sure that really breaks it or not, I'm not sure yet, but I'm trying to figure it out. Pretty exciting stuff though, figuring out the distributed web. The other part of it I'm trying to figure out is how to do website publishing onto the distributed web. And I think there's a few tools that are going to be in development probably right now. They're supposed to be released, maybe closer toward the end of 2019. But one that I'm checking out? Well, there's two of them. There's the Pico CMS, which has been used, I think, on Linux for a long time to make standalone HTML, sort of CMS based bersih. HTML CSS websites through a CMS. Well, that's a lot of letters. There's this other one, though, that is the one that I mean to talk about, which is called public. That I think is still in beta. Right now. It's a piece of software that runs again, on Mac, Linux and Windows, I have it on my, I think on two Mac's right now that I've been trying it out on. But there's a few different themes. It's a standalone program that runs on the computer, and then you can select a theme. And then you can go through and make modifications, that theme and add your content into it like pictures and whatever your posts are that you want to have add to it. And then you can preview it. And it's just a standalone file architecture that is building like on the computer where it's writing out the code and the CSS file that is supposed to reference to so it's working pretty well. It's kind of cool. I'm trying to check it out a little bit and sort of see what kind of little say I could build with it. But the reason I say that is because standalone websites as opposed to the things that are sort of set up more like a database like WordPress that I've got going on, I think that maybe you could do it with WordPress, too. I'm not really totally sure about it. But from what I understand that the standalone just sort of flat HTML website is pretty easy to put up onto this distributed web that I keep talking about. So you can take that standalone file that contains the text and photos and code and stuff for your website, put it up onto your distributed web ipfs node, and then take that hash link, and then open that in any browser. And then that'll open up whatever website content you had there, and it will show it in the browser. It's kind of a cool idea.

I wanted to talk a little bit today about some of the audio chain stuff that I've been trying to put together in the podcasting studio that I've been building, I guess, but it's fun. It's just going to open the different pieces together. I've been trying to use cakewalk sonar more. And actually, that's what I'm recording right now, which is kind of cool. I like using the program. It's kind of interesting to use it a bit. Oh, interesting. I see what I'm doing a little bit more. I just kind of checking out like how stuff sort of moves around in it. But yeah, now I'm seeing it's over on this other track. And then if you hear that, that's the keyboard coming in. So what I'm trying to figure out how to do is do some multi tracking stuff in sonar with the audio interface that I have. So I have a two input two output USB interface with age four. And so the school each friend you can take out you know, in the field and record anywhere with the batteries and stuff just done the SD card, we're just I've been doing a bunch of stuff. But you can also use it with the XLR inputs to do a left right input into the computer is like a two track to track piece. So yeah, that's kind of cool. You can just yeah, just had to put in and work out or you know, have it connected to a computer and then have it be the audio interface. I've also got this, this 25 key, m audio key 42 and gigwalk. Also some piano plugins, a warm pad or some of this of synth effect thing, right now trying to figure out some way to make like a cool soundboard or something like that be fun. It's probably just annoying in the background. But that's stuff that I have been working on in the studio thinking about mixers and arms control pads and stuff. But it's kind of fun stuff. So I've been checking out the ipfs network. I've been talking about it a few times before here on the podcast. But it stands for interplanetary file system. It's kind of a cool way of sort of creating a distributed hash table now around an hour. it's it's it's something where it's like a distributed network instead of having like a server system. So I've been trying to set that up. It's pretty complicated, but you can go to Siberia's and download a program called Orion. And that's like a browser that you can use to upload and then download, you know, send files back and forth over the ipfs network, which is pretty cool. It's kind of interesting. So I downloaded it on a couple of computers here at home. And I was trying to use this, this key to connect the two of the nodes together. So you could kind of create, like a direct connection in the network. And I was trying to do this with a couple other computers I had around the house to to do some stuff. But But yeah, the ipfs node is pretty interesting. I'm trying to put up some media stuff onto that over the last couple days. I've been using this site called D sounds got audio. And I'm trying to upload a bunch of mp3 files of my podcasts. And it's just kinda interesting to check it out. But yeah, it's it looks like a lot like SoundCloud or something when you use it. But instead of any of those files existing on a website's server, they exist distributed across the world, United States, I don't know how far it's really distributed yet. But those files are distributed on different computers. So it can be reproduced from from different areas of the network. It's interesting, I don't know, I'm kind of curious how it works out. I'm also using this video program, or video website called de dot tube, which I think is what it is. It's supposed to really just be like a YouTube clone. And it works pretty well. It's it's not, I think, the full resolution and flow that YouTube is, but really as it goes, it's it's quite far along for what you would think to do with it. I've also been checking outbid shoot, which is another sort of YouTube video competitor, but they do a lot more with ads and with paid content. And I think that the D tube stuff is it seems like a little more homegrown in some ways, when you look at the website, but but as I consider it, I think it's, you know, it's ad-free. It's crypto, decentralized, it's really it's interesting, like when you log in, you don't really even use your email address or anything like that. It's just, it's this cryptographic key that you log in with. And that's like your account data and if no one has it, so if you lose it, then it's gone. I think forever, you know, So it's kind of cool, check it out, you can go to your page, you can go to upload media like you would on YouTube or so that it's a little slower though it seems like that's that's definitely something that I was noticing. I'm trying to make an upload right now. And it's going fine. But I think it's a little bit slower than maybe some of the other the other like YouTube or something like that if you're uploading a 10 NDP video, it'd be more robust as a service. This is definitely like something, some some piece of the internet that's being made by people like you and me. So it's, it's kind of cool that it works at all, really. But yeah, I think these, these D tube sites and the sounds, sights are going to be kind of interesting media players. And not players like, but just interesting kind of media side features that that I think are kind of interesting, as people are starting to maybe consider moving away from centralized services like Facebook, and Microsoft, and apple and Amazon, and all that. So yeah, it's gonna be Google. Yeah, YouTube, and Google and all that, but, but it's cool, try to check out the ipfs stuff. And get it connected, I was trying to upload some videos that I have on my YouTube page right now. And trying to download a bunch of YouTube videos. Also, like I watch the YouTube videos that I have, there's, there's a couple different features out there, there's like maybe one that you've heard before we put s s before the YouTube domain name. And that'll send you over to a website called I think it's like save form or something like that. And then you can, you can download sort of a lower resolution version of that, that file, which saved me a couple of things I helped me out a couple times, it was, you know, audio and video of it, you can download it, I think it was ad-free, that it's as a website that kind of, you know, pushes you to buy stuff a lot, though, to think of the way the service works, as opposed to trying to check out this thing called the YouTube dash DLL, which was like a youtube downloader. So I was trying to go through and download some of the videos that I had on YouTube, but that I don't really have like the same same clips from on my computer. So it's cool to go through and check it out. too, but and was it D sounds distributed sounds. Distributed audio, it's kind of cool. checking it out. So I'm uploading a video in the background right now on my laptop. It's like a screen capture video working in Lightroom. And going through the editing of a photo. So I'm throwing that up there on the two, which is like, probably gonna take forever to upload, it's kind of a larger, I think it's like more than 10 minutes or something like that's one gigabyte. So it's like a bigger file for that network to take. So I think it takes like a little bit more time is cool, I'm trying it out. And I guess we'll kind of see how it goes. It's also cool, too, I guess you can just you can publish websites to the ipfs hash tables. Also, like if you write like a static HTML site, or an HTML CSS site, I guess you can package that and then upload that. And you will have a web link to go to that HTML site, and it will pull up like it was pulled up on a server, which is pretty interesting. I haven't really learned quite enough about it yet. I'm trying to figure it out a little bit more, I want to try and get like some kind of distributed, distributed blog website up or you know, something where you can kind of update it a couple times, I think there's another one called steep shot dot i O. That was this, this photo-sharing website that I was checking out, which is kind of cool. It's still all these are still in alpha. I was having a hard time actually getting stuff to upload when I was using it. So it was kind of interesting, but I think it's stuff that it kind of comes and goes as you're sort of an early adopter of some of the services. But I'm gonna try and try and use steep shot.io to continue doing some stuff too. That's another distributed photo-sharing site, which is kind of cool uses the, I think I think when you post a photo, it posts it to the blockchain ledger is still sort of something that's out of my depth, it seems to me, but I think it's kind of cool that you're able to do stuff like that. And yeah, but put stuff up on the web and download it from the web without ever really going through a centralized service. So it's kind of fun stuff. But in addition to that, I've been working on podcasting stuff I've been working here in the studio trying to get things going. I've been trying to get the the the keyboard rolling, I think I've got it kind of figured out now. So I've got the keyboard and MIDI controller rolling. And I've got my audio interface set up with the two channels, which is kind of cool. Trying to record into sonar right now, instead of Adobe Audition, which is interesting. I'm applying a couple live effects in the effects rack which is kind of cool are just kind of interesting, like get checkout and stuff is you know, like how different services and stuff work and and yeah, it's cool. cakewalk Lightroom was definitely built out to be a really capable multitrack recorder. I used it years ago, Stephen Scott and I were doing Scott and Robert. Were doing the studio audio studio stuff, trying to record and do like multitrack band recording and stuff that was really fun, really interesting, but we all use sonar for that, to kind of do the multi-tracking for podcast recording, it's probably a lot of overkill, you know, like, a whole bunch of different different tracks set up to record, you know, eight or 16 tracks of a band for for just recording one track of audio for a podcast and then maybe putting some some music that underneath it. I think it's, it's working pretty well for that system right now. But yeah, it's cool. Trying to get into the audio stuff, getting a computer set up with it, having the keyboard setup is pretty fun, too. I also trying to look at audio, or what is it like studio furniture seven trying to like get the studio set up. And it's cool to get the door guy, let's go one of my bangs, but I'm trying to, like go around and I was looking at Yeah, like pictures on Google of different console desks, you'd probably look that up like audio console desk or audio studio console, or something like that. And you'll get pictures of just these seems like really, really cool furniture desks, you know, like it's a built out desk that in the middle of it is sort of lowered so you can slide in this big 32 channel, console mixer into it. And then on either side, you have all your control panels and stuff, you have your shelf with your computer monitor or whatever above. And then you have all of your control racks, your studio monitors like your big studio monitor speakers up on the sides kind of raised up against it. But it was cool. Yeah, kind of going through and seeing like the different kind of outboard gear that people put into their studios and stuff. And I thought it was kind of interesting, you know, when I was looking at Radio studios to and even back in my time of working in a radio station, aka LDR. It was an it was just interesting. Like they really radio stations don't have a lot going on. It's cool if they had a little bit of money and they were able to buy out like a studio or have a couple of production rooms or something like that. But really, man, a lot of the time when I look at some of the studio equipment, it's just sort of a felt-covered desk with you know, some electronics box looks sort of like an amplifier. And then a headphone and a microphone coming out of it with like a yellow legal pad and just a couple of cables on and off the side of a desk. But it just looks like you know, it's in some some fluorescent-lit room with you know, just just had I don't know, there's like a guy doing a remote. I remember back in the day, radio remotes used to be sort of like a big deal. You know, you do it for the marketing of it. And I was at an event a couple was maybe two years ago now. Wow. Yeah, two years ago, I was at one of the football events. And they had a radio remote there. I was doing like a photo thing at a booth there, and they told me like oh yeah, like this, this radio stations coming in to do a radio demo. They're going to be set up right behind us like Oh, cool. That'll be like a thing you know, I remember doing radio remotes how to do sticker stops, right so I had a van had like a big you know, colored branded wrapped a van with like a orange light on it that would drive around and give out free Dutch Bros or something like that to people driving around. There's just sort of a radio promotion thing. You know, you park it the light on in and out stuff. You know, it's kind of like an marketing implementation. And this was just like it was an old guy at an old guy, I think his wife at a table with their iPhone. And they had like, I'm serious. I think they just had their like headphones like they just their white iPod headphones in and they'd called the station and they were just they were just talking and that was it. Not as fun as it used to be Yeah. So radio remotes are nowhere, I guess, what they used to be, or you know, radio stations and all that even podcast TVs and stuff, and you look around at some of those. It's all had a podcast equipment, a lot of podcast, production stuff is I guess pretty limited in what they're able to do and a lot of people are using like audacity, maybe this h4 n that I'm using to that's that's one of the common common audio recorder interface pieces but it's cool. I like I like running it just to the SD card that works really well and I'm also finding out that I like it a lot to run in running the audio into the computer as an interface you know that to USB interface. I think it's working better than I thought it was. So I was going to talk about right now. Well right now it's 3:55am. I've been up for a while. And it's kind of become like a standard schedule on those for me kind of waking up maybe around three or four in the morning. Maybe Getting back to bed around six but but really probably a lot of time, it's just getting ready for work and sort of starting to get on with the day. So it's kind of interesting, waking up super early. But it's nice to there's, you know, nothing going on right now to distract me from doing some recording and some podcasting stuff, which is kind of fun to do about gas, but I was trying to figure out some other stuff. So I've been get back into the photo stuff, which I haven't really talked about much other than just audio recording and setting up and network. That's exciting photo news. So as the photo stuff goes, have been been busy been working a lot, I just finished up a wedding this last week finished up some other client work, which I'm pretty busy with most of the time, but I'm not doing as much I guess, like personal photo stuff as I want to do right now. So I want to try and get out of my camera and kind of fit in some, just some fun trips out, you know, like, kind of go over to the there's a river area that I want to check out. And there's also like a couple kind of hiking areas that I want to go over to and check out to do some I just kind of simple photo stuff, but really is like the bigger like higher scale photo stuff goes. I really want to get out of town headed toward like Eastern Oregon, and I've been trying to set up some plans to do some camping stuff. It's already like probably like mid summer now. Yeah, so we've been in it for a little while getting through the summer experience. But I want to try and do some more camping stuff. And that's like a big push for big push for August this year, August, September, and probably October too. I want to try and get out and do as much as much outdoor stuff as I can. Yeah, okay, cool. So I got got August coming up, and the rest of the Indian summer so there might have after that check out. So that'll probably wrap up

Appreciate you guys tuning in to check this one out. I wanted to catch up on a couple of things that I've been working on recently, which is often what I'm talking about. But I've been putting together a couple of things during the last couple of weeks and kind of run across a couple of ideas related to photo stuff and media stuff, as is the usual. But a couple of things I wanted to talk about were some Mac apps today, I've been trying to sort of set up my mac book to be is configured with a few more utilities and a few more pieces of software that make it a little more functional for me. So I want to try and talk about those a little bit today. But one of them was I stat menus, and it was this application that I'd heard about. Maybe over a year ago, I've been using it a lot when I was trying to render some 360 footage and a lot more like video footage. I was using a computer the whole day to do that. So this program is stat menus are good for adding in a bunch of information like a bunch of system information to your computer right at the top of the wizard bar at the top, you know, like the Apple menu and your time and your clock and stuff, right? If you get a lot of information about your disk space, network speeds, uploads and downloads, and CPU and GPU. It's pretty interesting, and I like to again check it out. And kind of when you have a bunch of graphs that sort of indicate when or how much how much of a system is going toward that task at that time. So right now I'm doing an upload to Amazon photos to try and get a backup of all my images up there. And I'm looking at the network monitoring. And so showing me like a history of my network upload speeds over the last 24 hours. And I see like there's a big dip before like 5am while I was running overnight, and then now it's back up like two maybe 3x what it was before. So it's an interesting kind of monitor, like how high your speeds are. And that sort of thing. When I was running, rendering video out, it was cool, because you can see like the temperature sensor sensors inside of the computer. And in addition to that, you can see the hard drive space that was left on each few drives, including your externals, and you can see how fast the CPU and GPU are working. So I've been using this app a lot for kind of the system process, monitoring stuff, it's cool, I've been enjoying it, it's kind of fun to, to get used to. In addition to that another one that I'm checking out is probably one that a lot of people have heard of before, but I think it's called magnet, magnet, I think and it sort of reproduces the functionality that you get, I think started back in Windows seven, where if you pull a window to the edge of the screen, it'll sort of snap to the edge of that side of the screen or oral snap to beast split-pane window. It's kinda interesting how it works. But I like I like how it works on Windows. And I have been sort of frustrated in the past that I don't have that kind of utility in the Mac OS system. So I you know, just windows are sort of built to kind of float all over each other. And I did kind of like that part of, of windows or even back in my experience of working windows, which is in a way I work with a computer now I have like seven windows up right now. The windows, I don't really always go to full screen application almost all the time. So it's kind of interesting, that workflows rate changes over time. What else am I working on? Oh, Amazon photos, that was another one that I guess I'm I'm kind of going through right now sort of lean into another side of it. But I've been using Amazon photos for a while and the Amazon drive system, I did have some backups or not even really backups for the photos backups of the photos, I suppose because it's the dngs. And it is the JPEG images, I think you can put video up there also. But that takes up paid storage space. So for photos that you can put as many photos on the cloud as you want with your prime membership. And I think I put like probably almost 100 gigs of photos up there. So it's cool, you do have access to all of your images in that library of images you have online, like I can pull it up on my phone in an app, and I can pull it up on the web and a few other places. So it just gives me an accessibility to my images I hadn't really had before to every image and that way at least that's kind of cool that you know, I do see that I have access to all of those photographs bigger than that I really need to go through and make more functional collections of smaller sections of that. So I have just a lot of the photos I would need to use set up in a high quality system that is more accessible to me that's still that's the little piece that isn't really quite as tight as I would like it within my photo business. But I've been you using Amazon photos to make a backup of everything, almost everything is already there. But it can incremental area like as you go, you need to get all the new stuff up there. So I'm trying to put up a bunch of the stuff that I've had for the last couple months when I haven't really been able to put a sync back up to the Amazon photos. cloud backup. The cool thing is though, is I'm trying to work with iCloud a little more in addition to that, and so I've been setting up the iCloud put it in Finder. So I can access my iCloud data there in Finder from multiple computers and from my phone, which is cool. But on my phone in my files app, I was going in there and I put in. So I have like the Amazon drive application on my phone, I had my files application sort of show that I can go to my Amazon photos, files that are from my phone. So without even going to the Amazon photos application just from my files app, I can go through and browse all those photos folders on the cloud and then pull up and view those images. I thought that was kind of cool. Or it was just interesting to see like, Well, yeah, I can jump to each any data photos that I want back in time, because they're all backed up now and more accessible. So So I think it's pretty cool. It's a it's a free service when you pay for a Prime membership. So I guess the proper way to say it is it is it is a premium service that is included with your Prime membership, which seems to be pretty valuable. A lot of the time I like the Amazon cloud services and cloud storage services, which I'm trying to get a little more into, like I was mentioned, I think it's I think it's 11 or 12 bucks a year for 100 gigabytes of storage space on Amazon drive. And I've been trying to think if that's going to be something that I need, you know, like a more a more proficient more full service cloud storage system. Storage, I definitely need I'm looking into like hard drives right now try to find something, but I don't know if I really need the collaborative accessibility that is provided by cloud storage so much, I think I need like fast, hard drives fast data storage and stuff. So I can I can kind of move things around. And it seems to be more useful for me than the big cloud. I'm looking at eight terabyte and 10 terabyte Seagate hard drive right now a couple of the brands I was looking at, like the G drives and those cooler like aluminum metal cases, I was looking at other Lacie drives about Lacy stuff in the past. And but I'm looking for a bigger desktop drive, I have a couple of smaller, portable drives that are great with a laptop when you're when you're moving around. And that's worked really functionally the last couple of years, but I am looking for something that really probably what I actually want is a NASS or some network-attached storage device. I've been interested in those for a long time, they're kind of expensive to get into. It's almost like buying a desktop computer when you load it up with big hard drives, and you have to buy an enclosure, and it's a big project, just all as that as it is. So really picking up eight terabytes or 10 terabytes for for 200 bucks seems like, like it would solve my problem for the time being. But that's what I thought five years ago when I bought a four terabyte hard drive. And I thought that would solve my problems. And now I have four filled up. Four terabyte hard drives. Well, one, two, those are before the two. Those are both ones. So there are four, that's for sure. So yeah, I need to get a bigger, bigger amount of space to kind of do the data management staff that I have in the background, the tough thing is, is like so you have four terabytes, wow. And so it's like a lot way more than I would have ever thought in the past. But man think about 20 years from now. But in the data we're gonna be talking about, we're talking about AR files or photogrammetry projects, there's something it's gonna be insane data. Four terabytes, I got to back that up somewhere, right, so I need a second four terabyte hard drive to have all that duplicated over to, so now I have two full four terabyte hard drives, which is kind of the problem. Yeah, I seem to run into I'm going to get this eight terabyte hard drive. And then I'm going to need a second one to back it up to, so the idea is that it's really just going to be this one big tank drive, that's going to be the archive area for all this stuff to go and get backed up to. And then we're going to have the smaller, you know, four terabyte hard drives that are maybe a little faster. I've been doing black magic speed tests on them though, and they are not that fast. Like 100 megabits a second, I'll get in a second but yeah, try to get the four terabyte hard drives I have right now to be more active, like for video projects or for the photo libraries or something like that. Maybe I can break it out and have that run a little bit more stable on some of those but the interesting thing the thing I was going to mention is that these drives are USB three, right? Wow USB three that's fast. Hey, maybe soon they're gonna be Thunderbolt three or the USB 3.1 USBC connector. That's That'll be great. That'll be what what is that 10 or 20 gigabytes a second incredible speeds. Wow, that'd be awesome or USB three what that's five gigabits a second gigabytes a second slippin. Now, the slow hard drives are what the the weakest link in the chain is. So you're sort of throttled back to the speed that the drive can write to. So the 7200 RPM drives these spinning disk drives, which used to be kind of state of the art video drives 10 years ago. And that kind of considered really slow, they are really slow their data write speeds are somewhere around 100 megabytes a second, which is below half of what was advertised for the even USB two speeds of 250 megabits a second, megabytes a second. Okay, so we're running 100 megabytes a second on a USB three, four terabyte hard drive, it's good. It's cool. It's, I think, better than the USB two connection, Acme does. So it's faster than a USB two cable, happy to have USB three. But Wow, that is like not the same kind of performance at all. So that's really where you're going to see the performance increase when you go to an SSD hard drive. So I was trying to consider that about any like future stuff, I was thinking about, like, getting like a pro desktop computer and trying to build out some stuff, like I was saying, a network, storage device or other stuff that I could use, but thinking about, okay, so for performance with like a higher-end computer, you're really going to get slower speeds. With that, you would get really fast speeds if you had an SSD, or if you had the right type of enclosure that was built to work with it really quickly. So that's kind of been crossing my mind to for future-proofing. What I'm up to for the the 2020s as we're getting into it. I really think though, you know, round, most logically, but the answer was probably get the reasonably priced eight terabyte drive now wait some years into the future and pick up some multi-terabyte solid-state drive of the future that can transmit things at faster speeds. I'm sure we'll get there sooner than later. Well, thanks a lot for listening to me kind of ramble about computers that I have installed on my laptop. That's pretty interesting, right? But all of that is in service of the greater goal of trying to get some photo stuff put together, which has been going pretty well to go through a bunch of images in the catalog. And I'm trying to get together I think I've been trying to talk about it in in so many ways a few times. But I'm trying to get together a couple sets of portfolio sort of structured into like, let's say, easily landscape, commercial shoots, portrait shoots, wedding shoot something like that. And so there's kind of a collection of each second have. So if people are to look at those photos, I sort of see, oh, yeah, there's the, there's this and then there's that. So that's kind of the plan, which is close to coming together pretty fun. And other than that I'm getting into video stuff, I've been editing a lot more Final Cut, I've got the big monitor up, I've got the weakened tackle that I'm trying to go through and kind of get used to using the pen, it's probably easier to do that in Photoshop or Illustrator or something like that to get used to the pen, that final cuts are cool too. Also, you get to kind of flow the pen back and forth. As using a tablet is a faster way of working than with a mouse. In some ways. It's sometimes a little more accurate, but it really is a bit of a learning curve in some way. So try to tighten it up. It's coming. Anyway, thanks a lot for listening to this episode, this coast to coast broadcast of the Billy Newman photo podcast. I appreciate it.
